    I didn't like that I had to enter the room through a balcony that was metallic and see through. Also, the room we stayed needs some love... painting,good cleaning and do something with the mold and needs better quality sheets and towels.Also the air conditioning could not be controlled and was unpleasantly cold.

    The location is perfect. The staff is very helpful and the breakfast is great!

    1. No window in the room and this information not mentioned on booking 2. First day not was water in the bathroom 3. Rare availibility of staff (no staff when we would like to check in and check out no staff when there was no water. Just there was a phone number to call if we have problem but it is not comfortable and of course the ring-up also has a cost.) 4. The brakefast place and the room are not in same plane ( but need to mentioned the breakfast place was very nice and had really good food)

    1.Location is very good 2. The breakfast place is very good-highly recommnded place 3. Tea/coffee/cookies in the room were very kindly and nice

    The attractions are just a walking distance.A lot of restaurant when you go out of the building.Many groceries store around the area.

    Good but uncomfortable temperature resulting in a poor nights sleep.

    The AC was centralized meaning I couldn’t control the temp. I had a standard room which didn’t have a window, and only ventilation was through the internal of the building. This meant if the door was open, I would get the fishy restaurant smells, and if it was closed the only option was heat through the AC. It was very hot at night and the hotel wouldn’t change it as they weren’t allowed, despite it being quite warm.

    Location was amazing! Valletta old town was definitely the best place to stay for restaurants, bars and access to everything such a tour picks ups, ferry etc.

    We would not have booked if we’d known the lift did not work. Breakfast was at a remote location, much further away than advised. Food and service on first day was good. On two subsequent days, the staff were overwhelmed by demand. The shower needed a good clean.

    Central. Spacious.

    Facilities looked like they were under construction. Lift was broken. Since there were no windows in the room there was little ventilation and a moldy or damp smell was present the entire stay.

    Very central location, perfect for exploring Valletta. Breakfast was hosted at a nearby restaurant, basic buffet but prefect for the price.

    Entrance is confusing because there’s little sign which you can barely see. We didn’t have window in our room and the biggest issue is weird smell in room mixed with restaurant smell from hallway. Basically entrance of hotel is also kitchen entrance of some restaurant. We didn’t have door in the shower.

    Great staff. They gave us two more hours for check out because I was sick that morning. Also location is perfect.

    The building is beautiful, yet old and, as a result, the rooms lack windows and by extension proper ventilation.

    If you like a firmer bed, you are not going to enjoy this one. The bed was too soft for me. The shower walls were moldy. The air in the room was musty despite the ventilation system.

    The location is outstanding, it’s very lively, lots of restaurants around, everything you need is within your reach. The staff was very helpful and someone was at the reception at all times during our stay. The bathroom water pressure was amazing.

    No one on (tiny) reception desk at all during our stay, even though we were repeatedly told someone was coming. No directions or details of how to get there as taxi not allowed on road outside and taxi driver could not find it when we arrived. No need for code for outside glass door as broken and permanently open. Lift broken but rooms on floors 1 to 3 so ok for us. Kitchen on ground floor for restaurant outside (no connection to guest rooms) so entrance hall is a busy thoroughfare. Very noisy from live music a few doors down in front room 204 so we moved to rear room 203 which was fine but no exterior window. No instructions on how to use safe box in room (no code and not fastened down!). Had to rely on cleaning staff, waiters and messages via Booking.com to get any information.

    Lovely warm room 203, very comfortable beds, great hot shower. Very modern and tasteful. Right in the centre of town on a pedestrianised street full of tables for cafes and restaurants.
