Good location, bus stop across the street. Breakfast is a good option, if not, Costa Coffee is a good option too. Kebab restaurant just a few steps is a must.
Shower! you can flood the entire room when you take a shower.

Pretty much everything was great. Friendly staff. Clean. Lift. Great location near bus stops, restaurants, shore. Comfortable bed and pillow. Wonderful view. Recommend room with sea view. If you dont want sea view you can book a room that looks at a wall elsewhere for cheaper.
The shower door was installed invertedly so all the water that hits the glass door drains onto the bathroom floor which has no drain and theres is no step between bathroom and bedroom, so if youre not careful you will flood the whole room... Most room doors have large cracks under them so you hear a lot of noise from the hallway. I woke up every day around 7 - 8am to the staff making noise outside. AC remote is finicky. Also the AC sometimes makes quite a bit of noise even when turned off. If youre booking room with sea view triple check that, because i ended up with partial sea view somehow and to be honest you will be looking at a wall unless you go on the balcony which is super windy all the time because its on an alley where all the wind from the sea makes it way trough.

Location was great - right on the prom. Hotel was clean and decor was good.
The pool size, the stairs were pained black and we had difficulty using them as they all blended in so you couldn't tell the end of one and the start of the other step. Wouldn't like to use them if there was a power cut. They need a different colour strip preferably a high light strip. We managed to lock ourselves out on the balcony with our phones inside. Don't know how the lever managed to go upwards to lock the door. Thankfully we attracted a passerby who reported it to the hotel desk.

Room was better than expected, shower was great. Friendly staff who were always helpful. Location was great for us and buses nearby for travelling around. Great restaurant directly opposite the hotel. Lovely pub around the next bay, The Dubliner.
Reference the room, a couple of coat hooks by the door would have been nice for wet coats and a couple in the bathroom as there was nowhere to hang wet towels, and maybe a seat to sit on (can't always stand 1-legged to dry off), or to place clothes on.

This hotel has been recently refurbished throughout so everything new and in very good condition. Nice toiletries provided daily. Location is also very good. Breakfast was ok, not wow and not bad, just ok. If there was any downside is that our room was quite small for a 3 bed room, the room was definitely a double in which they added a third bed to accommodate our stay. We would stay at this hotel again due to its condition and location, but would definitely require a larger room that can accommodate 3 beds without making it feel congested.
Nothing.

The location is amazing! Bus station, restaurant, close to Paceville and Valletta. Staff is nice and friendly, always ready to help. The bed is really big and comfortable. The room is small, but enough for 2 people. They clean daily and change towels if needed. They gave us tea, coffee and sugar and replaced. There is a laguagge room and is really useful, no extra pay.
There is no frigde in the room, but they let us use the staff fridge. The balcony needs an asher. Make sure you close the bathroom glass door, sometimes water get out.

Very friendly personal, Hotel is in good location, close to the sea and the main promenade. There were a lot of smaller shops nearby as well as a lot of restaurants and bistros and pubs. Even tho the hotel did not have parking for the hosts, you can easily park in the streets behind the hotel close to the school which was like 5 minute walk. Amazing views from the 8th floor terrace
The hotel is situated on a busy street, where you'll hear bike horns every few minutes throughout the day. The pool on the roof is located in the back, so you cannot see the sea from the pool and it was pretty cold compared to the sea. TV in the room was not working, it said no signal and had no cable connected to it, only power. Bathroom - The door was larger than the frame and couldn't be closed, open shower with no way to prevent the water from going all over the bathroom.

Comfortable, brightly colored room (for two). The view from the balcony is gorgeous - of the sea. Breakfast (buffet): omelette, boiled eggs, fried bacon and sausages, beans in tomato sauce, grilled tomatoes, also cheeses, ham, salami, cut fresh fruit. Milk, juice, water, coffee, tea, sugar, various jams and marmalade, butter. Croissants, puffs with cream and chocolate, 4 types of bread. The staff was friendly and helped with any questions we had.
The water from the shower was leaking outside. It wasn't a big problem, but it was there, which was a bit unsightly.

The location is great,in front of a beautiful bay, I a quieter area comparing to San Julian. Bus stop in front, and mini market very close. I highly recommend getting a room with the view of the sea, it is gorgeous. Breakfast was very good with fresh fruits, salad, eggs etc. Staff was very nice! The hotel is renewed so all beautiful. Swimming pool in rooftop is small but almost no one was using it. Very comfortable and clean room. Great air conditioner and mini fridge!
Only the bathroom got wet from the shower.

Room was clean and comfortable with a nice view of the sea. All the staff were very friendly. Location was great for getting around to see areas, and there was a good amount close to the hotel without being in the middle of too many pubs or clubs.
You do get quite a bit of noise from the road outside, so might want ear plugs if a light sleeper. The cooked breakfast wasn’t great. Scrambled egg always looked very dry and the bacon and sausages not very appealing. However a reasonable range of more continental type options.
