Reviews of Ta' Marta Lodge

Everything and it just feel like you live there. Fan Bed Location I’ll be definitely staying here again for next year hopefully

No lights once you enter the building so maybe that could be improvement? No plug for kitchen sink and bathroom sink but that can be fixed if possible Can’t think of anything else so that’s only thing I can say

Nice bathroom, lovely location, thoughtfully decorated.

The WiFi was poor quality and the taps and hob were not secured properly.

Staying with Ta’ Marta Lodge was a pleasure. The location was perfect and accessible. I like the place. It has a traditional design & is neat.

The only problem is the internet we can't access. I can even use my own data, maybe because of the reception.

Nice location in the old town. Clean.

Attention to details-10 small towels but 0 big. Dolce gusto machine but no capsules. Oven but no baking tray… it has a lot of potential just to iron these details to make it more comfortable.

beautiful apartment, in excellent location. perfect!

Great location, in the heart of the old town few meters from St George Square. Room was ready a couple of hours earlier at arrival, all well organized. Nice decor, beautiful antique type of lamps and furniture at the arrival hall and the room.

The mattress of the big bed was too stiff for us , every morning one of us woke up with bit of back pain. The air conditioning is visibly unable to cool down the room even when we kept the balcony closed during the day, part of the room also gets the heat accumulating during the day from the rooftop, the balcony side gets all the afternoon sunshine which doesn't help either , I guess in the cooler season is enough but not in the summer, probably needs an upgrade. We could have used a microwave oven, but we used the stove to heat the milk so it was fine.

Location is great, room size is great and that is where the good bits end

Electrics - are really bad, although they look finished, all lights and lamps are hung by bare wires, sockets not properly mounted, junction box above the shower with wires exposed. In truth, all the electrics need to be redone otherwise someone will be killed. Bathroom fittings - towel holder not fixed, toilet seat broken, sink plug blocks up, soap dispenser cup superglued to the shelf so can not put any thing, towels provided are just hand towels, no good if you have a shower, (which is a hazard in itself). Kitchen - would had been nice if some basics were provided like more than the bare minimum crockery and cutlery, may be one tea or coffee perhaps. Wifi worked for 10 minutes then was never seen again.

The central location was very practical. The apartment is in the cellar of an old traditional town house so has bags of character and has been very carefully restored. As it is a cellar it stayed cool despite high outside temperatures, I didnt need to use the air con but found the fan very helpful. Having a washing machine was a real bonus I stayed 12 nights. When I had requests from the owners they were very responsive and helpful. We had a water outage in Victoria one day for about half a day and they brought me buckets of water for washing and toilet flush. The apartment is spacious and equipped with the things you need for a stay, very comfy sofa !

The flip side of the cellar being cool was that it was very dark. You need the lights on all the time whilst in the house, there is a very tiny enclosed courtyard with cafe style table and chairs which was lovely for coffee and drying washing but not comfortable to sit long. The Apartment feels damp. The electrics are not all working and the light switches are in unusual places. The internet was very temperamental it only worked if I was in the courtyard or sometimes in the kitchen and often simply there was no connection. I slso had no phone signal most of the time and had to go outside the Apartment to get a signal which was rather annoying. By far the biggest negative however was the noise of the neighbours. The property is in the middle of a residential area and what sound to be a multigenerational family live upstairs/ next door. There was a lot of yelling especially at weekends when it sounded like grandparents were there. It seemed angry and aggressive and was very unpleasant. If you want to be in the property during the day to avoid the heat like I did then this was going on in the background.

Apartment was beautifully decorated. WiFi was good for us. Good location with a variety of restaurants and good for shopping.

There were two sets of sheer curtains. One was separating the bedroom and living area and one over a glass set of doors to exit to the patio which you could not use because of dirt and dust on bistro set. The sheers covering those doors afforded us no privacy to another set of glass doors in a reception area. True drapes or curtains are needed there, not sheers. People were peeking through into our unit. We don't know who was renting or living upstairs but every morning, and sometimes during the day, and at night there was yelling, fighting, screaming and playing the TV too loud, scraping chairs or moving furniture across the floor. It was deafening. We were terribly disturbed by this activity. Short on kitchen facilities, no napkins or paper towels. No kitchen linen for drying dishes.

Very traditional house in the heart of Victoria. Well equipped and everything you could need is just around.

Small external court with table unaccessible, because of dust.

Clean comfortable base with character to explore the island. Set in the old part of town so plenty to see locally as well. Parking near could be difficult at busy times. Bus station not too far away & if walking the coast over 3 days like I did, it was ideal & fare only 2€ per journey. Owners very responsive throughout, a few issues occurred but soon rectified.

The location is fantastic, and the balcony is wonderfully cozy! The apartment was clean and beautifully furnished, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Its super nice .Maltese style and very clean and the owners nice . My kids love to much the place. Especially my baby 10 months love too much the bathroom 😂😂. Next time i will definitely choose ta marta lodge Again . Its quite house . And the apartment not small. The owners very very helpful.

Very nice authentic apartment in old town. Fully equipped kitchen.

Apartment has no separate bedroom. There is no normal window, you have no view. Specific smell. Very strong perfume in wardrobe, we can't even use it. Wifi works only in the kitchen. Lack of information on how to use hot water (so first day we had only cold water).

Good position Quiet place Characteristic

Location was excellent, in the old town close to the citadel

No larger towels for use after showering

Best location ever!! Lovely house of character in one of the little winding streets of Victoria behind St George Basilica and Square. Easy to walk to everything in Victoria. Easy self check in, everything clean and comfortable and nice balcony with chairs and table overlooking the street

Towels were very small and wifi signal is not so good upstairs

Absolute perfect !! Wonderful apartment location. Very beautiful and cozy apartment. The kitchen had everything you need.

The flat is spacious, well-kept, and very, very clean. The location is smack in the historical centre of Victoria ( Rabat, right off St George square), in a narrow, picturesque alley. So bar, restaurants, souvenir shops are very near. And very near is the Citadel, too, with its interesting museums. The place was easy to find and clearly marked. Owners sounded nice and very polite. The small balcony was a lovely place for my morning coffee and croissant.

Unfortunately, I agree with whoever wrote that the kitchen should be better equipped ( at least a couple of soup plates and a wooden spoon). It is not a huge problem if you are there for a couple of days as I was. It could impact your stay if you are there for longer. There are no large towels in the bathroom, so bring your own, as I did. Wifi was very sketchy and most times did not work. This was the only really negative issue I experienced. It's really a shame as these are small things that can be easily fixed. Other than this, it's a truly lovely place, and I didn't find it half as noisy as some other reviewers described it.

The beds are not very comfortable.
