We had a lovely stay. The hotel is located on the quieter streets behind the main road down at the waterfront which made it feel very peaceful. The room was clean and generous, a little bit of a damp smell in the wardrobe. But all in all it was great value and exactly what we needed. We enjoyed the breakfast.

A nice hotel, in a very handy location
A really nice and affordable hotel in a handy area of Sliema. Letting myself in on the evening of my arrival was handy with a code for the main door and then another to get my key from a lockbox. My single room had enough space and wardrobe and nice sized bathroom. Reception staff was nice and friendly. It was helpful having a vending machine in the building for when I needed water at night after the nearby shops had closed. I stayed in November and the area was very quiet, even with the window open all I could hear was the occasional church bells in the distance. Two small issues I had was that there was some dried snot smeared on the wall by the bed when I arrived but I just wiped this off. Then on my last night I knelt on the end of my bed and the mattress fell through. It looks like some slats were missing so I reported this the next morning and the staff said they would look into it. Also be careful when walking around the hotel at night - there are automatic lights that come on when walking around but sometime you have to wave your arms around or walk down the opposite way you want to go in order for the sensor to detect you and turn on. But all in all it was a very nice stay.

The location was great for walking - a little less easy with a car. Close to bus routes. Our room and bathroom were pleasant and clean. There was a wonderful shared kitchen with great facilities. The elevator worked well. Locks were set up to make it easy to come and go as one pleased. We would definitely recommend this accommodation.
