It was okay, great convenient location. Would recommend for a short stay if your itinerary is to see Sliema and Valletta. Floors were dirty, no bar fridge (which would’ve been nice to cool our water in 35o heat!), balcony was tiny and balcony door didn’t lock. Also only had one key between us, so meant we had to leave the room door unlocked if we went our separate ways.
it was not what we saw on the internet, the hot water was rusty colour and all we saw from our room was someones appartment the other side of the path, we are not staying there again
Property was situated along a lovely and busy stretch of the Bay which made the easy to access loads of lovely spots within walking distance. Property itself was quite dingy and the room I stayed in had one very high inaccessible window that made my room feel like a prison. The hotel reception smelt as if all the cigarette been smoked at St Julian's bay was being sucked straight into it. The reception was also dingy and not well lit. The staff's attitude was just ok. They tried to be helpful but it felt surface type most times.
It was quick one night stay as we were heading to one of the club's in Malta that night. Toilet was fine and beds were good also. However, the room door was very difficult to lock and the room window didn't lock which was a big security concern. I wouldn't stay there again for longer trips.
Amazingly friendly staff, making my time at the hotel a true joy. Especially Anita was really nice and very helpful, handling all my requests with enthusiasm and professionalism. She made my day every day of my stay! Thank you Anita, your care has been very much appreciated!
Overall great stay, I was there for 10 nights total and very well worth the money. Will be staying here again for sure.
Only feedback for property is that the WiFi could use updating. It would not constantly stay connected and would drop frequently. Once this is solved this solved hotel will be perfect for budgeted travels. Again, will be staying
The hotel is in a great location. Accross from St. Julian's beach and few steps from the bus stop. Easy to get to Valletta from here and you can walk to St. George's Bay. Our room was clean and comfortable. The bath tub had a leak and they fixed right away after we reported it. I highly recommend the breakfast. It wasn't expensive buy had everything you need to fuel up and get ready for the day. Vending machines at the lobby were a life saver as we arrived after midnight on a Sunday night and all the restaurants were closed. I'd definitely stay here again.
Overall it was a good value for money, Stayed in the Quadruple room for just 50euro/12.50euro per person, was able to get Netflix on the TV using laptop and beds where pretty comfortable, Staff and receptionists where great too, would recommend it to anyone who needs a night out
Friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable rooms. Overall very happy about my stay!

Unpleasant Receptionist
Very unpleasant receptionist,
Asking 4 times if I speak Italian,
And he keep repeating his questions,
I answered 3 times that I don't,
Small balcony, Small bathroom,
Large clean room. Security safe was too low, on the floor in the wardrobe. Very large, clean bathroom, but not enough shelf space. Good location. Reception not always manned, but helpful staff.
This is my go to hotel in Malta although there has been some enforced COVID changes since my last visit
Room on the7th floor was clean and kept clean to a good standard throughout my stay
Staff have changed since my last visit but they remain friendly and Willing to help any request
The breakfast was a bit disappointing but clearly enforced changes due to COVID but the portions were small and it seemed rushed
Compared to previous visits
Overall the hotel remains central to the things I want to visit and is a good base it has retainedits friendly and welcoming manner
