Great Stay for Families Near the Sea
Pros:

Nice apartment, very close to the bus stop and the sea. The kitchen was well equipped with all the necessary utilities for self cooking, which was very convenient. We needed an early check in, and the receptionist kindly agreed, which we really appreciated. He was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended for families with kids.

Cons:

Can't think of any.

No lo recomendamos
Pros:

Estaba reformado y era económico. Tras presentar nuestras quejas por lo ocurrido durante las noches, la persona que nos atendió fue amable y nos pidió disculpas informando que tomaría medidas.

Cons:

Llegamos de noche. Toda fachada está iluminada de rojo en un barrio un poco oscuro. No nos dio mucha confianza.
Por las noches hubo mucho jaleo de peleas, gritos y música y no pegamos ojo. De madrugada, por error asignaron nuestra habitación a nuevos huéspedes, que entraron en nuestra habitación mientras dormíamos, llevándonos por ambas partes un susto tremendo. Al no haber responsables del alojamiento durante la noche, no hay quien tome medidas inmediatas.

Cons:

It’s hard to find a parking space even on the nearby streets, especially in the late afternoon; once we spent nearly 50 minutes looking for a space.

Not awesome not terrible.
Pros:

Location and price was fine.
Kitchen was fairly equipped. Bathroom was clean. Bed comfortable.
Very spacious.

Cons:

There was construction right next building we were not aware of.
In the room was strong smell of airrefreshener which fade in to smell of old furniture however some of the room equipment was new.
The floor needed to be boomed by us.

Jestem bardzo zadowolona
Pros:

Apartament duży, przestronny, z balkonem, bardzo wygodne łóżka, bardzo dobra lokalizacja, blisko do plaży i sklepów. W pokoju wszystko co trzeba, sprawne - lodówka, kuchenka, suszarka, żelazko, wszystko działa. Kilka drobnych minusów też było ale to drobiazgi które dało się ogarnąć.

Cons:

Bardzo mała łazienka niestety z drzwiami z plexi, dla niektórych może to być dyskomfort. Drugim minusem był system kodów - jeden kod do drzwi wejściowych do hotelu który trzeba było aktywować do godz 13:00 w przeciwynym razie się deaktywował przez co ciągle nie mogłysmy wejśc do hotelu. Drugi kod do drzwi pokojowych, długi strasznie, nie dało się go zapamietać, więc trzeba było mieć go gdzieś zapisanym. Brak szklanek czy kubków w kuchni - są ale w bardzo ograniczonej ilości.

Pros:

I chose St Pauls Bay resort and the apartment as it was self catering. The price was very reasonable
In terms of location, it is within close walking distance to bus stops, the Buqqiba ferry jetty, many shops and restaurants.
Excellent bus and connecting service on the island
Tallinja app very helpful
Being based in St Pauls Bay allowed me to use this base to explore Malta
Regular buses and taxi at hand if needed
Everything I required was at hand in the apartment. Plenty towels, starter washing up liquid, cloths, bin bags, bottle of water
Hot powerful shower
Gas hob and oven
Large comfortable couch, TV, hairdryer, AC, albeit I didnt need this, iron, safe, comfortable bed
Staff were polite and helpful with any requests
Frequent update checking in messages via Booking.com from owners to check everything was ok throughout stay
Secure entry door system and on lift
Small discount if a return visitor

Cons:

I cant say there was anything specific to the hotel I didnt like to be honest
There is a lot of reconstruction building work going on around St Pauls Bay but this didnt really inhibit me from enjoying my stay or exploring the area

Pros:

Εμένα μου αρέσουν οι άνθρωποι οι γελαστοί και οι ευγενικοί, καθόλου επιτηδευμένα!! Και να είναι εκεί όταν προκύψει κάτι να σε να σε βοηθήσουν! Αυτά αρκούν! Και η κυρία που καθαρίζει πάρα πολύ συμπαθητική!!

Cons:

Επιλέξτε δωμάτιο με μεγάλο μπαλκόνι μόνο αυτό μας έλειψε..
