Medina Lodge

Rabat

The apartment is very nice. Basically almost the whole house is for rent: there’s a shop with mobile phones on the ground floor, but the rest of the building is Medina Lodge: on the first and second floor there are bedrooms with bathrooms and TVs. On the top there’s a kitchen with all necessary equipment (like a cooker, a microwave oven, a fridge, a wash machine etc.). It also acts are the living room and there’s also a dining table and a sofa.  One has 270 degrees nice view on the city from the kitchen. There’s also a little terrace where one can eat, rest or even do sunbathing.

The apartment is very well located: in the centre of Rabat right next to the main attractions of the city like St. Paul's church and catacombs (and just few  minutes walking from the old town of Mdina). Nearby there are various shops, bars, the post office and even the police station. However, although located in the city, one don’t feel such rush like in e.g. Valetta. What’s important for people who travel by car is that, unlike usually in Malta, there are quite a few parking places in front of apartment and it’s relatively easy to find a place to park (just note that on Sunday morning there’s a market in Rabat and most of the these parking places have to be left vacant on that day). It take around 30 min to get by car to the airport or Valetta (depends on the traffic conditions; reserve much more time during peak hours).

The contact with the owner was very good. Before arrival we received instruction on how to pick up the keys. During staying we reported a little issue that was quickly resolved.

However, it’s worth of mentioning that the water heater in the bathroom is of a relatively small capacity, thus if two people would like to take shower in a row there can be not enough water. Also the bathroom looks nice, but is not very practical because of lack of the shower curtain, so no matter how much one tries while taking the shower there’s no possibility not to spill water around.

One may notice that there’s an option to sleep in the kitchen/living room, but bearing in mind relatively poor isolation against temperature, noise and light, as it’s like a small pavilion build on top of the roof, I would consider such option only as a backup.

Very nice place in a good location

What a great house to stay in. Really near the centre of Rabat and has excellent facilities. The view from the sun room at the top of the building is lovely and owner is so very helpful and accommodating. Rabat is a great place to visit , local square where you can sit and join the local community , have a drink and soak in the atmosphere  , plenty of small local shops , bakery etc and so very friendly , I loved everything about it. Well worth a stay and this house was a great find , totally recommend it.
