"We stayed for 4 nights and upgraded to a club king room with sea view which was very nice snd worth it. The property is very well maintained and the staff is super friendly and helpful. The room itself was beautiful. I would only say that the bed is more on the firm side and given our personal preference is a bit softer this would be the only negative. Also if you are a very light sleeper, note you can sometimes hear motorcycles from the main street below even from the 11th floor which the hotel cannot control however the overall comfort and sea view compensated for this. Buffet breakfast was delicious and access to the club suite was convenient since you can grab coffee, refreshments and snacks 24 hours, plus appetizers and alcoholic beverages from 5-7pm. I would definitely stay here again."

8/10 Good
"Super nice front-desk staff, this is very important as it is always the first impression you have of the hotel. Check-in and out was very easy and seamless. Not sure if the hotel is old or just not very well maintained, but my room smelled very strongly of a musty odor which did not air out or disappear over the course of my stay, and which actually permeated my clothes after only a three night stay and travelled with me for the remainder of my vacation that I concluded in Gozo. The hotel is by the waterfront and Malta is humid, but I'm sure this cannot be the reason, otherwise all hotels in the same area would have the same issue. That being said, the hotel does give you free access to an awesome beach club across the street, and for the price you pay in this area compared to the other hotels nearby, it is an obvious choice. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was fine."
