Plenty of R& R at Water's Edge
Efffective and efficient are two words to describe the staff. Hotel next to beautiful beach and bus terminal for buses to Valetta and airport etc. Tickets 2euros 50 and valid for two hours. Breakfast on Level one, good choice and restaurant Level 0. Ate here most nights. Godd promenade walks and places of interest -depending on your stay. No hesitation recomending Water's Edge.

Interesting location
Clean and tidy but very basic. Bed not that comfy. Overnight noise from the nearby container ships. It was very cheap so not bad for the price but the location is poor. it is probably a seventies hotel that has been done up a bit and if you need a cheap stat then it is an option
