Hotel vraiment Sympa, très bien placé, un peu difficile de se garer cependant, la piscine est agréable (ferme a 19h), le personnel au top, le petit déjeuner vraiment varié Le seul truc qui m'a gêné : il n'y avait pas de bouteilles d'eau dans la chambre, pensez à en acheter a côté, l'eau du robinet ne se boit pas

A clean comfortable hotel with pool and next to beach and harbour promenade dining strip. Hotel is a little run down but is good value, including breakfast. Marsalforn is a nice area to stay in on Gozo. Hotel doesn’t have parking but there is public parking available a short walk away. Staff were really friendly and helpful.

Veldig harde senger, burde vært gjort noe med svømmebassenget. Helt ok frokost, ser også at det hadde ikke gjort noe om de hadde pusset opp litt. Var veldig mange spisesteder rundt hotellet som var bra, og de låner ut håndklær til stranden super bra.

Stort rent rum på 20 kvm. Fint sittmöblemang. Kingsize säng, ngt hård. Vacker utsikt uthöver havsbukten från balkongen. Möblemang på balkongen. Tom minibar, vattenkokare och kaffe/te finns. Badrummet funktionellt men behöver en uppdatering/renovering. Dusch i badkar med ofräscht draperi. Mkt trevlig personal och smidig incheckning. Okey frukost av engelsk typ, dock endast vitt bröd, men finns bacon, bönor, äggröra, varma tomater, ägg, olika pålägg, muslibar, flera sorters youghurt, många olika frukter, kaffe, te, jouce. God äppelkaka och muffins. Toaletten (herr) i lobbyn var sliten, dörren gick inte att stänga och kranen i handfatet var lös. Fina solsängar på rooftop samt liten grund pool. Hotellet har bedömts fyrstjärnigt, men tycker det med svenska mått endast får tre stjärnor.

Nous nous avons été très déçus car cela ne correspondait pas aux photos qui cachent la vétusté de l’ensemble de la chambre. La salle de bain était sale (poils dans la baignoire et dans les toilettes), la literie peu confortable, et la chambre très mal insonorisée, nous avons entendu les pleurs et cris des enfants de la chambre voisine toute la soirée. Les serviettes de toilettes tachées et couverture et rideaux déchirés. Le parking n’est pas privatif mais un parking public à proximité. Nous avons eu de la place car c’est le mois de mars mais pas sûr que ça soit le cas en juillet/aout. Le petit déjeuner était cependant très bien avec une jolie vue sur la mer ce qui pour nous est le seul atout.

From the outside hotel looks nice and location is perfect. Personnal at the desk was very friendly. Breakfast buffet was ok but nothing exceptionnal. The problem was the room. First bathroom is very narrow, tiles on the floor were not installed properly and finally, water pressure in the shower was almost inexistent. Air conditionning in the room was noisy and didn’t work properly, we had to activate the ceiling fan to be cooled down. We rented this room for 2 nights but left after one eventhough it wasn’t reimbursable. Very disappointing.

Dated hotel with the most atrociously uncomfortable beds. Add to that the most useless staff and it was not a good experience. I got stuck in a downpour on my rented scooter and soaked to the bone…I asked if there were dryers I could use to dry my cloths and shoes as I would need the shorts and shoes the next day and was told no. I asked for paper towels to stick in my shoes to try to have them dry out by morning, they said they didn’t have any (they did, I found some in the lobby bathroom). Honestly one of the worst hotel stays of all time.
