clean and spacious room from 1970

Posted 29 Mar 2017
Room was very clean and tidy, lots of space and only £10 a night each for me and a friend. We had our own room each, lounge and kitchen. Decor was tired and from the 1970's but was well kept and did I mention clean. The hotel wasn't operating at full capacity as it was out of season so there were no facilities in operation apart from the tennis courts. I really liked it here and for the cost it was very reasonable indeed. I would certainly go back.

Do not stay here!!

Posted 29 Aug 2016
Pros: The only good thing was the food in the cafe
Cons: Maintaining rooms and pool
Location: Middle of nowhere unless you get a car it's hard to find transportation
The hotel is going to be demolished and neither the current or new owners have kept up with maintenance. You have to ask for new towels and for sheets to be changed. When I advised I was going to give a bad review I was told they do not own the hotel anymore and do not care!

Week in Malta

Posted 7 Aug 2016
I chose the sundown for its location in San gwann as we were visiting relatives. Don't expect this to be a top class hotel. It's exactly what it says it is. Dated and in need of modernising but very clean and with helpful staff. I would stay again as it was very reasonably priced. In town without many shops nearby though. Only draw back for me is bed was not great as I'm used too memory foam mattress. All in all very pleased with apartment no frills but a solid base as described

In need of a serious upgrade in all areas

Posted 4 Jan 2016 on Hotels
We have stayed in this pace in the past but this hotel complex is in desperate need of upgrade in all areas. we also noted that most of the rooms appear to be rented out to students, the common areas to the block of flats where we stayed smelt bad and unclean. the hotel staff are nice and friendly and helpful too. We also had to pay for the WIFI in the flat and there is a charge to use the safe. Our fridge needed cleaning on the outside and inside; cooker rings did not work well, second bathroom had a water leak from the toilet which kept the floor wet. the flats are in serious need of updating.......... we would like to go back as it is convenient but it needs to be done up and please clean the pool, no-one wants to see green algae in a pool.

Good place to stay for a budget trip

Posted 12 Oct 2015
Do not go to this hotel if you are looking for 5-star luxury or spa-style comfort. It's a cheap hotel that, I believe, gives excellent value for money. Four of us stayed for a long weekend in October. We were looking for a no-nonsense place to sleep, essentially, so I was positively surprised by the experience. The room (E40) was a two-bed apartment with a simple kitchen and living/dining room. It had two bathrooms, which was unexpected, and two balconies big enough for all four of us to stand on without feeling squished. In total it was about 600 sq ft, so quite roomy. The decoration was ancient, at a guess late 1970s, and it takes some getting used to. But it was very clean and tidy (it got a quick clean every day we were there). There was a lot of space and easily enough furniture to be comfortable. Everything worked - sockets, sinks, fridge, freezer etc. Outside, there are two large pools and beach towels are available for a €5 deposit. The staff, particularly at reception, were very unpretentious and friendly. There is wifi in reception (not in rooms) and it was slow, but we were able to get a few vital work emails done so tolerable. We didn't try the food. Sundown Court is excellent value for money - not much more than a hostel bed. Perfect for people who don't mind simple no-nonsense accommodation.

Clean and Basic

Posted 26 Sep 2015
Quiet, clean and low cost. Good if you want basic. Clean room and facilities. Dated decor. Really poor air con. Good distance from restaurants, bars and shops in Sliema and St Julian's. Great if you don't want to spend much time at the resort.
