Jelena is a great host. Always there to answer your queries, very helpful and humble. She maintains her apartment very well. Room we stayed in was nice and comfortable. Had enough storage space, the bed was comfortable, sheets clean and the ceiling fan was a savior as temperatures hit 30 degrees. Jelena was kind to offer us breakfast, her beach umbrella that actually saved us a lot of money. Jelena has two lovely and extremely shy cats. As far as location goes, its near Bugibba beach in a quiet neighbourhood. Plenty of grocery stores and restaurants. Parking is free and although the streets are packed with cars, we always found a place. Her place is ideal if you want to spend time visiting the beaches in the north. (Malta is not so big, you could go to the south too, but through Valetta meaning you will be stuck in traffic). All in all, lovely experience, we will visit again.
If you are allergic to cats, this place may not be for you.
