Struttura vicino alla movida ma molto molto silenziosa.
Pros:

Struttura situata vicinissimo al centro . Comodità a tutti servizi. La zona è molto tranquilla nonostante vicinissimo alla movida. Hotel pulito e con tutti i servizi necessari. Check-in e Check-out in autonomia molto comodo. Molto carina la piscina piccolina e si può definire anche intima. Spero di ritornare perché non ho trovato nulla di negativo.

Cons:

Tutto perfetto

We had a great time in Malta and the hotel made it even better. We're very, very happy about this.
Pros:

This place is a total gem!
Both cute, cozy and tucked in a silent street and well connected with Spinola bay bus stops.
We arrived very early /7.30-ish/ and managed to get access cards and store our luggage and get a full day in Valletta.
Check-in was a breeze. Staff was lovely and very helpful.

I'm very happy the staff helped me organize a B-day surprise for my SO. Everything was awesome!
The food was good, the bed was good, the room was just the right size for backpackers on a 4-night stay.
Shower had all the hot water and pressure you could need and the toiletries were great too.

Within 15mins on foot reach there are tons of shops and places to eat + stuff to see and explore, busses are available and Valletta is 25mins away with a single bus ride.
I'm looking forward to returning in a non-cloudy and windy weather to get to use the pool too!

Cons:

The only nitpick is for IQOS users/vape users - after 10pm you have to smoke in front of the hotel.
I personally don't smoke so it didn't bother me.

Pros:

Страхотен хотел. Супер удобни легла. Невероятно приветлив персонал, приятелски настроен, усмихнат. Всеки ден зареждаха стаята с капсули кафе и вода. Всекидневно почистване на стаята. Настаниха ни по-рано. Закуската е отлична. Всичко е ново, чисто, помислено до най-малкия детайл. Топъл басей на покрива. Локацията е на едно от най-красивото и комуникативно място. Огромно БЛАГОДАРЯ! Направихте престоят ни чудесен. Ако мога бих ви дала оценка не 10, а 110. БЛАГОДАРЯ!

Cons:

Няма.Всичко беше перфектно

Faboulos, cozy, unique with great staff and perfect location.
Pros:

Everything, especially the rooftop facilities and the fact that the pool was heated.

Cons:

Everything, they also thought of every little practical thing, like there is fridge with snacks if you are hungry, there is a charger for your phone outside the property if your battery is out, you can literally not lock yourself out. I gőz cleaning every day. Great waterpressure in your shower. Greatest staff I have ever encountered during my travels.

Pros:

Położenie hotelu: blisko centrum a jednocześnie było cicho i spokojnie. Bardzo sympatyczny i pomocny personel. Pokój moze nie zbyt duży ale dla dwóch osób w zupełności wystarczający, byl czysty i zadbany.
