Cosy Albert's Seaside Suites (Sliema)

The Property was easy to access with the given codes via text. Also it is very central in Sliema and the Sea is 2 min away. The location is perfect also since the Harbor is so close and you can easily walk to the ferry that brings you to Valletta. The location was the only really good thing about the property.

The second me and my friend entered the Room, we looked at each other and said „WTF did we book, shall we search for another hotel?“ We chose to stay since we only needed to sleep there and take showers, we didn’t speak any extra minute in that facility. It was really dirty, open teabags and sweets probably from the previous client, the fridge in our room smelled so bad, there were two windows, one of wich you couldn’t physically open since there was the wardrobe in front and the other lead to the “outside”, just a wall with all AC exhaust. We had our private bathroom outside of our room, it was dirty with a huge amount of spider eggs all over the wall. The windows of the bathroom led to the Washing machine and drier room, so if you wanted some natural light, get ready for anyone in the facility to see you naked. The wardrobe was also broken (least of all the problems) and on the floor it was extremely dirty, probably some very dirty shoes were placed there before our stay, would’ve taken 2 minutes to clean with a wet cloth. It just seemed like the cleaner (if there is one) came in only to make up our bed before we checked-in. We contacted Jessica multiple times after she asked us about how our stay was going, she read the messages and ignored us. We sent her another message the next day, still ignored, then we sent pictures of our stay and same thing. I didn’t want to leave a bad review so I ignored it. After checking out, I received a message from her asking me to leave her a 10/10 review and nothing less since that would harm the company and if something wasn’t to our liking, to text in that same chat what went wrong. I summed our stay once again and I got ignored once again.

Fab location. Clear instructions on arrival

The room felt a little bit basic with the laminated posters everywhere, not very cosy or lovely setting (not like in the pictures) The bedding pillow was very lumpy

the netflix advertised on the website was not available, as the owners denied they had netflix supplied, big disappointment.

air conditioning, good location

Location good, easy to find and self check in is perfect, if you arrive at night

There is no Windows in the room at all! There is, but no possibility to open or see anything thru them

The room was well equipped with AC, fan, humidifier, and lots of storage space.

The bathroom was too small and uncomfortable. The air extractor there was not powerful enough, making it humid and smelly at times.

We loved the location of the apartment; it was close to the sea, surrounded by many restaurants, bars, and cafes, as well as markets. The apartment had a charming interior design, making it feel like home. It was great that there were plenty of places to store our belongings, so we didn't have to keep them in our suitcases. We could comfortably unpack without worrying about where to put everything. 😊

We didn't like that the hallway leading to our apartment's front door was very stuffy, with a strange smell, making it hard to breathe. Our room had two windows that faced two walls, which made it feel claustrophobic and quite small, almost as if we didn't have any windows at all since we couldn't get any fresh air. The bathroom appeared to be inside the room in the booking photos, but it wasn't. It was actually outside our room, across from our apartment, and its window faced the shared kitchen in the hallway. This was the worst part because there was no air circulation when taking a hot shower, making you feel like you might faint. Additionally, we experienced a power outage during our stay. There was no electricity for 40 minutes, and during that time, we couldn't enter the apartment because the doors operated with a PIN code, and we weren't given a key (something that should be thought of in advance!). 🙃
