Rooms are terrible and the supposed renovation is more Public Relations, online, than in real life. Also, they claim they have their own beach.

That's not true. The beach is shared with other properties and is not exactly private. Also, very early, around 6p, the beach opens up as there is a restaurant that uses it. We went to the beach to find people using it who were not affiliated with any hotel...Its also...a man made beach.

Malta, especially the touristy St John's, is a rip off central.

This property's staff will always check you in to the worst room, fight back and return to the desk when you get checked in. If you wish to prepay for breakfast, don't. Weak coffee, weak lattes, cold hot plate food and terrible service

I suggest you go to the SPG property down the way.
