Only negative was that i had to pay an extra €10 for the Ac in the room. This should not be an extra charge and i didn't get to read about this in the T&C. The rest good room, nice service and good breakfast.

Friendly, convenient and clean.

My host was friendly and hospitable, the hotel is spotlessly clean and in a great location. There is a grocery store a few minutes up the road, the bus stops are also within a 1-2 minutes walk, and Marsalforn Bay is a 2 minute walk away. Lots to do from this location to include the coastal walk from Marsalforn walking West. And easy bus rides to Victoria and connecting areas. I’d definitely recommend this place and would stay again on my next visit.

A room close to the sea in Gozo

The Lantern Guest House is clearly a popular and very reasonably priced guest house offering simple accommodation for a holiday in Gozo. My room offered a small balcony, although my stay was for one night only and to achieve a specific purpose. The situation offers a room, very close to the sea front and ease of access to local restaurants and cafes. A bus delivers one directly from the harbour to the village. I did not have breakfast though that is available. Winter heating and Summer cooling are extra at 8 euro per day. The owner was available, exceptionally friendly and supportive in all ways. W

Cozy inn by the sea

This was a cozy place located just a block from the Marsalforn beach and promenade. I was participating in the Gozo Half marathon this weekend so just stayed for one night but the owners made sure to make it comfortable and enjoyable. Because I had to be up and out very early in the morning, before breakfast hours, they provided breakfast the night before so I could have something to eat before the race. In addition, I had forgotten my phone charger, so they asked other guests if someone had one so I could charge my phone. Lastly, as checkout was early, I had to checkout before the race, but they allowed me to come back and shower afterwards. Overall, it was perfect for my quick stay and highly recommend especially based on the price.
