Redelijk
Pros:

Uitzicht zeezicht, vriendelijk terras bij het hotel. 2e kamer beviel goed.

Cons:

Kijk uit dat je de kamer krijgt die je hebt gereserveerd. In 1e instantie kregen wij een kamer op de 5e etage, die vonden wij niet overeenkomen, houterig bed, stenen balkon, waardoor je vanuit stoel niks kon zien, verveloos, kamer kleiner. Volgende ochtend is dit wel dankzij receptioniste opgelost. Zonde van de 1e dag vol ergernis. Ontbijt was redelijk, niks bijzonders. Veel geloop.

Pros:

The lady looking after the room was nice and friendly.

Cons:

The pillows not soft
The breakfast was really poor ( pastry not fresh, no infusion, no fresh juice, hot food not very appealing ) and poor service.
The pool was not open luckily the weather was not great. Would have been even more disappointed if I could not lay down near the pool .
The room itself was old, run down with that old varnished oak bed and table top as well as the bathroom. The top panels were not put back properly. Had no connector lead for the phone.
We’re doing some renovations on my floor so they were making lots of noises.
TV had no film on and no channels list
Not even a pen/ paper.
Only one glass to drink water with
When asked information about the bus the receptionist did not even know where to take the bus from to go to Mdina.
No map offered.
Very poor overall for the money paid. I thought I treated myself and my son but it was a real disappointment.

Pros:

A very large room.

Cons:

I could hear the reception from my first floor room. People were loud at night and slamming doors. Slippery pavement outside the hotel seemed like a safety risk.

Pros:

Die Lage, allerdings waren mehrere Baustellen, so dass die Haltestellen nicht angefahren werden konnten. Ein komplizierter Shuttle war eingerichtet, was an der Bushaltestelle jedoch nicht ersichtlich war.

Cons:

Siehe oben und in dem Restaurant konnten wir nichts zu essen bestellen. Auf Nachfrage sollte uns jemand geschickt werden. Dies geschah nicht, also haben wir außerhalb gegessen.
