Dated hotel with pleasant staff
You get what you pay for. Stayed for 7 nights and needed assistance from maintenance on a couple of occassions. Room had not been thoroghly cleaned prior to our arrival and we had to request clean towels on our last night as our room had not been cleaned or towels changed. Our room was compact with an ensuite shower. We were situated that the back of the hotel overlooking the Elvis tribute bar and had a marvellous huge terrace, such a blessing and we were able to enjoy the great views. The air-conditioning was a god send, would never have survived the August heat without it. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. The accommodation is dated but the room, when cleaned was adequate and the bed very comfortable. The hotel was quite quiet and strict guidelines were in place to support distancing and hand hygiene.

My wife and I have been visiting Malta for the last 9 years and have stayed in 5 other hotels, this one by far is the best and good value for money. My only moan is the pillows but they were managable for a short stay.

1/5 Terrible

Travelled with family
On arriving at this hotel we were advised that they did not have a room for us. This was booked and paid for back in July 2019!!!! To cut an extremely awful experience (the manager was laughing at our predicament) short we were offered another hotel and on checking the reviews it was dreadful. They offered another plus 2 hop on hop off bus pass each. If we wanted dinner added to the compensation we would have to sign a declaration saying we would not put on any bad reviews or complain. Needless to say we declined. On checking reviews for this hotel later it sound like we had a very lucky escape. Appalling attitude, extremely poor customer service.
