I recently stayed in Antonio’s residence, with a room & en-suite, sitting area, and shared balcony (not self-catering). I could not have had a better experience, and given the opportunity, I would not hesitate to stay here again.
No wonder why Antonio is an AirBnB superhost, this man could NOT do enough for you. Nothing was of too much trouble, and from the moment we met at Mdina Gate, I felt welcomed and at home. As a non-binary individual, I never once felt judged.
Antonio is a fountain of knowledge in music, culture, history, theology, and sport. We had some brilliant chats over a vegetarian continental breakfast. Dietary requirements were well thought-through, with fresh local produce, & I never left feeling hungry.
Beautiful building full of stories & character, and charm. The courtyard is incredibly special. Despite being over 1000 years old, the house is eco conscious, with solar panels & a water recycling tank. The AC unit in the room is top of the range and cools you down in a matter of seconds, great after a day in Buggiba or Valletta. Shower was large and plenty powerful to leave you feeling refreshed. Soap and shampoo were included! Secure with external security locks, as well as internal locks for all personal sections of the house.
Apartment would not be suitable for those with mobility issues. Some guests may feel uncomfortable with black statues in 2022, didn’t feel so appropriate - Some history can remain in the past. Also, Make sure you’ve got mobile data!

Mdina is a picturesque location, with plenty to see. It’s great for guests wanting to explore Malta for its rich culture and history. Being central, it’s easy to get to any destination - St Paul’s Bay, Valletta, Manikata.
As expected of an ancient city, no night life, so in no way a party destination (That being said, a stones throw away from Gianpula Village, a massive clubbing destination!).
