Penelope Apartments, Apartment 14

L'appartamento ha degli spazi soddisfacenti (un'unica camera da letto, soggiorno con cucina, terrazzo, bagno e ripostiglio). Facilità di parcheggio libero nei pressi della proprietà.

Ristrutturare quattro mura non fa di te un host, ti rende solo un dilettante che improvvisa. L’impatto con la struttura è traumatico: un condominio fatiscente, sventrato, che puzza di muffa. Al check-in (comunque avvenuto nell'orario stabilito) non c'è nessuno. Il proprietario, rintracciato a fatica, ha pure l'arroganza di fare polemica sui minuti di anticipo anziché scusarsi per la totale assenza di comunicazione. ​Ma il vero horror inizia dentro. Oltre alla polvere diffusa che abbiamo dovuto pulire da soli, la perla della casa: lenzuola e asciugamani "puliti" stracolmi di macchie, peli e capelli altrui. Un livello di schifo e degradante inciviltà oltre ogni limite. ​Il proprietario? Sparito. Ha risposto a notte fonda promettendo un cambio della biancheria mai avvenuto, per poi dileguarsi nel nulla per tre giorni. Siamo stati costretti a dormire e lavarci nello sporco altrui per tre notti. Un fantasma totale. ​Inutili anche i complici di Booking.com: un servizio clienti ridicolo, inefficiente, capace solo di rimbalzare la palla tra operatori inutili senza risolvere due richieste banali come un cambio lenzuola o una riprotezione. L’umiliazione finale? Un'elemosina di 40€ in crediti come "compensazione". ​Struttura da cancellare dalle mappe. E se potete, cancellatevi anche da Booking, l'assistenza è ormai diventata una barzelletta. Sconsigliatissimo è dire poco.

Отличные апартаменты,супер вид,хорошее расположение

Appartment was beautifully clean, kitted out, spacious and well maintained. Host was generous with some drinks in the fridge. Kitchen fully stocked for self catering as required. High balcony with view.

Xlendie maybe wasn't for us - but that's our fault as we didn't look into it enough (slightly older couple, off season (February), not much there - or open). Likely suits younger ones for a week or more of summer action/fun etc etc. later in the year. Not the end of the world though as only a short bus ride into Victoria.

Modern with a view. Comfortable with all amenities

No table in dining area. Found it a bit hard to manage with kids. (To be fair there was an outdoor plastic table, but was always wet due to rain)

Fantastic location with a wonderful view of the cliffs. The apartment is very well equipped – nothing is missing! There’s a washing machine, an iron, and everything you might need to do your laundry. The kitchen is also fully equipped. A truly great place to stay

Nice apartment with great balcony and view of Xlendi Bay with fantastic sunsets. Note however very little sun on the balcony which was fine for us. Quite large apartment and very large bedroom with comfortable Queen bed quiet and good AC. Separate Laundry room with door with a washer and drying rack and soap provided. Kitchen with gaz stove top, electric oven, large refrigerator, toaster. No automatic coffee machine. They have a single percolator you can use. A kettle for the stove top as well. Great AC in the living room as well. Wifi was great in the living room and on the balcony but was very bad in the bedroom. Parking on street directly 20 meters away from apartment. Xlendi Bay has many good restaurants with amazing sunset views and it has many walking/small hikes and water activities to do directly from the beach area. Nice cozy little village to use a base in Gozo.

Quite a strong moldy smell in the staircase. I ran the AC on TURBO with external air intake to get the smell out of the apartment which worked. FYI, the apartment is 43 steps from the street level (no lift) and about 200 steps from the beach which was ok for us and good exercise but could be a problem for some.
