John's apartment is at a fabulous location in Mellieha. You are only three minutes walking distance away from one of the major bus stops which connects you all over the island. Malta's bus system is outstanding and you can discover all the cities including the islands Gozo / Comino within no time. We also travelled further southwards to St. Peter's Pool and were able to reach it.
There are some lovely restaurants round John's place, we highly recommend the Imperial Band restaurant located next to the big church, 5 minutes away from the apartment if you want to go for a quick and cheap burger menu. Ocean Basket in St. Paul's Bay and Cheeky monkey are great as well for fish, sushy and burgers.
John's apartment was VERY clean and very spacious. It is designed to host four to six people, hence you will feel like a king / queen when being there only as two - four people. John will pick you up from the airport and bring you back to the airport for a fair price, I highly recommend doing this since he will also quickly introduce you to important cities and supermarkets which are nearby. The kitchen has everything you need, bathroom is great and the bedroom is superb.
If you're looking for a stay at the core of Malta with great people, restaurants and perfect bus connections to the most desirable places look no further!
