The hotel was super busy, we even had to que and wait for a table to be free for bfast. Room cleanliness, very dusty and noisy, we could hear noises even in the night or early morning when people above our floor had a shower or used the toilet. Sorry but the hotel may look nice from the outside, but completely different when you stay there. And if that’s not enough, plenty of Maltese people who make it more like an open market rather than a hotel.

Ok so this is definitely not a five star or a four star hotel it’s is clean but by day 5 of my holiday l had a huge cockroach swimming in my toilet. The hotel is very dated and needs a complete refurbishment. I loved the fact the national park is on your doorstep and the beach is a stones throw away. I want to say a huge thank you to the general staff waiters cleaners waitresses they are amazing polite and courteous and can’t do enough for you. Management however needs a total overhaul retraining and should remember people pay good money to stay here! So if l tell you that lm smelling like something died in my room, don’t doubt me!
