    The place is quiet and relaxing..Very clean, and the jacuzzi on the roof was great,my dog enjoyed the roof.

    I was disappointed with the breakfast.Not a Maltese breakfast at all and it was very limited.We only had 1 boiled egg each,1 toast, cereal which is for kids,2 tablespoons yoghurt and 3 small fruits for 2 people. There was also a small piece of cake each which all was from Lidl.I expected home made from Gozitans. The bathroom accessories,we were given 1 medium and 1 small towel each from Friday to Sunday,we had to pay for extra,which I didn't,the shower gel was a small bottle 10 ml for a whole weekend,since summer we needed to have showers frequently.

    Thank you, Gloria, for taking the time to share your feedback. It was a real pleasure to host you and your dog at our B&B. We would just like to clarify a few points for future guests who may read this review. Our property is a family-run Bed & Breakfast, not a hotel, and as clearly indicated in the listing we provide a continental breakfast, not a traditional Gozitan breakfast. This includes bread or toast, eggs, yogurt, cereals, fruit, and cake. The yogurt is served as a full portion per person, not just a spoonful, and the fruit provided is standard-sized, never intentionally “small.” The cake is not homemade, but it is not sourced from Lidl either – we do sometimes buy from local suppliers. As for towels, the policy is a change every three nights (with a full change of sheets and towels every seven nights). For shorter stays, we provide one bath towel and one face towel per person, plus a bath mat. Of course, had you requested an extra towel, we would have been happy to provide it. The small toiletries are part of a complimentary welcome set – not something usually included in B&Bs – which we offer as an additional comfort. Finally, we would also like to kindly remind that there is a €10 pet fee, which was not paid in this case. We thank you once again for staying with us, and we wish you all the best for your future travels.

    Location excellent. Family was very helpful and friendly. It was clean however we were there for three night and were never offered any top up toilet roll or clean towels.

    No complementary water just a small inexpensive bottle in the fridge would have been nice after a long journey. Tea, coffee toilet rolls, towels - top ups were never offered. Description lead to believe terrace was exclusive but it was used for washing and did not feel private as described.Extras such as water, washing were expensive.

    Dear Kerry, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We truly appreciate every comment as it helps us improve the experience for our guests. We are glad you found the location excellent, the apartment clean, and our family welcoming. At the same time, we would like to clarify a few points: • As a family-run B&B (and not a hotel), our service model is a little different. Towel changes are scheduled every three nights, and a full change of sheets and towels, along with a complete cleaning, is done every seven nights. After three nights, we also provide a partial bathroom refresh. For shorter stays, this usually meets guests’ needs. • For toilet paper, we always provide two new rolls in the room, which in most cases is sufficient for a three-night stay. Of course, if you had needed more, we would have been happy to provide it — it would have been enough to let us know. • Regarding water: there is a free dispenser of fresh drinking water available in the kitchen, which was pointed out during check-in, so guests can help themselves anytime. For tea and coffee, we provide a welcome set, and we are always glad to give more if asked, though daily replenishment is not included (as might be in a 5-star hotel). • About the terrace: our description clearly states the layout, and the private area for guests is separated and reserved. There is another space we sometimes use to hang laundry, though we usually rely on the dryer, so it is rarely in use. • Finally, regarding extras such as water or beer: we don’t run this as a profit service. On the contrary, we offer them at prices at least 50% lower than local bars or shops, so that guests can enjoy convenience without having to go out. We are sorry if these details did not fully meet your expectations, but we are grateful for your stay and your comments, and we hope to welcome you again in the future for an even better experience. Warm regards

    The hosts were incredibly welcoming—we felt completely at ease and comfortable during our stay, and our dogs were warmly welcomed as well.

    I liked the privacy of the room, we had a floor to ourselves, with access to a hot tub. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was very basic but enough.. The host was very friendly also

    Parking is incredibly hard, the location was difficult to find and the B&B had one common TV instead of one in the room but this ended up being a positive thing.. .

    We were the only ones using the pool. The place was clean.

    Our room's air conditioning unit was situated at the top of the wardrobe, and despite its operation, we did not experience the cooling effect as effectively as we would have liked.

    Pool is lovely and clean. Breakfast is great 🥰

    You will be not alone in that property. Park too hassle! Tell owner if you have allergies to cats because that property have cats and its pet friendly.

    It was nice , the structure of the building and the room was comfortable.

    There was a weird smell in the bedroom, and overall didnt feel clean. Mini fridge of the room was empty , and was disappointed that there wasnt a service that they sell drinks by the Hot Tub. Felt that it should have been included. ( or at least someone in the building serving different types of cold beverages)

    Dear Jake, Gilju B&B is an host family accommodation… is not a hotel. But thank you for staying with us.
