Very friendly and helpful in getting me checked in after very late arrival around 3am. Great location super close to beach, restaurants and bus stop. Comfortable and clean room. No major noise heard from nearby restaurants nor traffic going past in the road although I was on first floor and some noise from breakfast room does carry if you're looking for a lie in.

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.

Problème eau et climatisation

La climatisation n’est pas incluse dans le prix de la chambre. Vous devez payer avec une pièce de 1€ pour 2 heures et demi de fraîcheur ! Impossible de prendre une douche digne de ce nom. Le débit est tellement faible que vous devez ouvrir l’eau froide à fond pour vous doucher, et encore ! Si vous devez vous laver les cheveux s’est quasiment mission impossible ! Je n’y reviendrai pas !

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
