“great value!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2011

people found this review helpful

For the price, the place cannot be beat. If you need a place to stay for a few nights in Malta this place is great. Granted our toilet was kind of busted, light in one of the rooms didnt work, and there is pretty much no receptionist at this place. However, it was ONLY 8 euro per person per night, clean, and spacious. the price cannot be beat and when we stayed it was clean. It IS loud, because it is right next the bars and clubs. But if you are looking to save money and only are staying for a few nights, this place is ideal.

“Good deal for the money”

App. are located in the centar of night life in St. Juliens, close to very good restaurants. We stayed for four days, rooms were clean,you get towels.It has kitchen but we didnt use it. It is very spaceus with basic facilites.Bad thing is noise from the clubs during the night and construction works in the morning, but you can easy handle it with ear plugs. Appartement cost only 4,5 euros per persn for the night so who cares about little noise.

No one to complain to

It's just all bad I can't say one good thing about this place.
If you want to sleep either day or night this is not the place for you
Health and safety doesn't exist

Malta is a beautiful, friendly place and I would recommend it to any one but this place is shameful and the thought that people stay here and could have a bad experience of Malta is a real let down

“Absolutely Vile!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2010

My last review of these apartment was removed for some reason!

I can honesly say that this is the worst hovel I have ever stayed in in my entire life! The room was filthy, we didn't see a cleaner for 5 days so no new towels or bedding! No shower curatin or hook to attached the shower head so showering was interesting to say the least. Forget sleeping whilst you're there as the apartment are above a nightclub which pumps out til at least 5am.

The building is the strangest building ever with lots of staircases that don't seem to lead to anywhere. The last review is so right, there is absolutely no fire safety whatsoever. I know this may sound a bit dramatic but seriously, if there happened to be a fire in that building............

We appreciate client's reviews. In our advertising we state that cleaning is once weekly, while towels and bedding is changed every 2 days or more frequently if necessary. All the private bathrooms in the apartments are fitted with full baths as well as with hand hald showers. The latter do not necessitate hooks but, when so requested by clients, these can be fitted in no time.

The apartments are in a lively area right in the centre of Malta's entertainment area with loads of bars, restaurants, wine bars, fast food shops, cinemas, bowling alleys. This is a place for holidays!

There is all the fire safety equipment not only in each apartmetn buit also in the corridors.

There are a total of two staircases in the property

person found this review helpful

we stayed here september 09, supposed to be for a week, in a studio apartment, we moved out after 1 night. went to stay in another hotel, we had to pay again, which is not good. These apartments are Not safe, no fire saftey at all, all glass fire cabinets supposed to hold extinguishers were empty, if there was fire on stairs we would have been done for as our room at the end of corridoor, claustophobic and dull apartments, no room, have big bruises on top of my legs due to table being squashed at the end of the bed !!! room clean though, noisey area, we are reporting to the authorities there lack of fire saftey and unsympathetic manner, do not advise anybody to stay here ever.

We appreciate the client's comments which were written a year and a half ago and which comments the client wrote after staying for only 1 night. The apartments are safe, and there is all the fire safety equipment necessary. The fire extinguishers were not there because they were being serviced. If the client went back the same day he/she would have found the fire extinguishers back there. We do not understand the client's comment about the apartment being claustrophobic and dull when these same apartments have 3 metre wide balcony doors in SUNNY Malta. Over 5,000 tourists from all over Europe stay in these apartments every year. A very high percentage of them are repeat visitors as they realise how central and convenient a location is being offered at such a low, low price.
