What Is Room Rental in Malta?
Room rental is the most affordable way to live in Malta. You rent a private or shared bedroom in a flat, sharing common areas (kitchen, bathroom, living room) with other tenants. Most rooms come furnished with a bed, wardrobe and desk. Utilities and Wi-Fi are often included or split between flatmates. Room rentals are governed by the same tenancy laws as full apartments, though contracts tend to be more flexible with shorter notice periods.
