I stayed at Stephanie's for three months (Nov to Feb), and I highly recommend it. The space is cozy, so 1-2 people is ideal. The space is clean and offers fantastic sunrise scenery. Also, internet is good (I work remotely, and there were no hiccups during my web-conferences). If you're looking for a place to stay in Malta and this place is still available, then it should be on your short list. Thank you so much Stephanie, and I'll definitely be back.
Here are my notes:
-The Arkadia FoodExpress food market is located a block away (cannot overstate this convenience)
-Bus fare (Tallinja) can be purchased at nearly every stationary or convenience store
-Best bus stops to get anywhere are Università, Qroqq, and Caramelo
-If you like Greek/Turkish/Anatolia food, then walk over to Hasan's Turkish Kebab House (get the mixed plate, it's plenty of food for 8.50 Euros)
-It's possible to walk to Valletta, but be prepared for a 50 minute walk
-On the topic of laundry, Stephanie offers her washer for a very reasonable fee. If you require a larger load size or tumble dryer, then there's self-service laundry located at the Triq Il-Punent/Cirku Msida intersection. Also note that most people hang-dry their clothing in Malta.
-If you're used to Uber/Lyft, then download the eCabs app to get around
-I could go on and on about what to eat or see, but stop thinking and book this place already! Adventure is waiting.
