Stunning view and facilities

Absolutely beautiful room on the 6th floor with a stunning room and balcony. Loved the fresco above the bed and the tiles in the bathroom. Was so nice. Only downside is we had to do 2 trips in the lift with our luggage as the lift is tiny.

Hotel ist located at the small beach so we can go swimming or just enjoying sunshine. Swimming pool on the rooftop is too small but doesn't bother at all because the beach is just in front of the hotel. There are not many sockets in the room. Don't forget your plug adapter. Malta uses UK plug.

This hotel was the worst It was old and itchy because of the sheets, so I was all over my eyes with allergies. I changed the room in 3 days and it is not recommended because it is the worst hotel which is very misunderstood.
