It was perfect for me!

The people were kind and helpful, it had all the amenities and it was so close to the marina. Nice cool air conditioning to escape the August heat. It was exactly what I needed.

A great place for a weekend getaway. Breakfast took over an hour - consider a buffet for people to come and go. We were three and the sofa was not a fold out. Other than that they had great amenities.

The room was very clean and the amenities cannot be beat! Full kitchenette and washer/dryer. 30 minute walk/hike to downtown Valletta. One note for people who like to sleep in. Church bells go off around 8am every morning. Beautiful and musical, but hard to sleep through

Neighborhood guesthouse within a walk to ferry.

Nice guesthouse on a quiet neighborhood street. We walked about 15 minutes (downhill) to catch the Sicily ferry at 6:30 in the morning. There is a small, serviceable cafe for breakfast or quick lunch, a convenience store , a beautiful produce vendor, and a pharmacy within a short walk.

Central indeed, but ...

Friendly and professional service, with a quiet accommodation not far from the central parts of town. The room was a good size, and the air conditioning was a big plus. That said, this place is comparable to a typical Airbnb stay—shampoo in single-use sachets, soap in a dispenser you have to stomp on to get anything out, a worn-out shower cabin, and reused pillowcases that really should have been thrown away a long time ago. In other words, they cut costs wherever they can which is odd, considering they probably serve Malta’s most expensive breakfast in what feels like a small school cafeteria. Conclusion: If you can afford it, choose something better. A three out of five rating

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The good: The people working there were excellent and would do anything you asked of them. Washing machine was amazing g to have in my room. The bad: Walls are paper thin and you can hear everything. The sheets were really old and pilled and need to be thrown away. The pillows were the same way and need to be replaced. Booked an airport transfer through their link and was scammed out of $40. This isn’t really the best area in Malta and I wish I had stayed in a more touristy area where there are restaurants and shops. Buses were always late or didn’t show up and were always packed full of people.

Spotless!

The studio is very comfortable. The only two things I can comment on is the lack of furniture on the balcony & the shower which was rather tight.

Renovated, clean, cold with friendly owners! Only weird part was the single room bathroom with shower that flooded the entire bathroom floor. Other than that, it was super convenient to Valletta and the airport and very affordable. Owner met us on site and walked us to our room. I would stay here again.

This is a new place that tries very hard to be accomodating. Everyone is very nice and it was great to have a mini kitchen to prepar meals. I would certainly go back but maybe to a room with a balcony. I stayed in the less expensive room that looked into the building shaft.
