Pros:

loved everything about this hotel! the rooms were lovely, clean, and a good size, the beds were very comfortable, and the little balcony looking out on to the street was perfect!! the staff were great and quick to help- lots of information was provided for self check in and we had no problems. there was 4 sun loungers which was also great as we found that pretty much nobody else used them during our stay and the pool also a good size . the hotel is also in a prime location only about a 4 minute walk in to spinola bay. we would definitely stay here again and were very sad to leave🥰

Cons:

nothing! our stay was perfect.

Pros:

Siamo stati in questa struttura per 3 giorni, la posizione nei pressi di spinola bay è ottima per spostarsi ovunque, inoltre è lontana dal caos, la struttura è nuova in stile industriale e molto pulita, i cuscini e i letti sono molto comodi. Apprezzato inoltre la disponibilità di giochi da tavolo e gli asciugamani per la spiaggia.

Cons:

La colazione era un po' troppo basic, la visuale dal balconcino era su un muro, la piscina e la palestra un po' troppo piccole.

Top, consigliato a tutti
Pros:

Tranquillità nel posto e poi perché è ben collegato, vicino ha bar,tabacchi, farmacia e negozi alimentari.
In più possiede una piscina a 4o piano

Cons:

Qualche volta è andata via la luce, però dopo qualche minuto veniva risolto

Pros:

Zentral. Sauber. Man konnte das Frühstück und den Pool vor offiziellen Check In nutzen.

Cons:

Jeden Tag das gleiche Frühstück. Keine Abwechslung drin. Eine Ablage für Klamotten wäre nett gewesen, da der Kleiderständer im Zimmer nur für Aufhängesachen war, aber man hat auch Hosen oder andere Anziehsachen die nicht am Kleiderbügel gehören. Das Aussengerät der Klimaanlage ist störend, da diese am kleinen Balkon extrem warme Luft versprüht, das macht es am Balkon, der eh schon klein ist, unerträglich zu sitzen.

Superbe
Pros:

L'emplacement est idéal ! Le rapport qualité prix est superbe. Les chambres sont modernes avec des équipements neufs. Le personnel est à l'écoute et très accueillant. Beaucoup de choses sont mises en place pour un accueil optimal, tel que des serviettes pour la piscine, de la nourriture offerte pour les résidents rentrant tard, et bien sûr le petit déjeuner frais et avec un large choix.
Je recommande cet établissement à 200% !!

We had a great stay for 5 nights, using this as a base to explore the island
Pros:

The place was amazing, Sheila who ran it on a daily basis was a superstar constantly assisting and asking if she can help. Breakfast was wide ranging and constantly available. The small Pool on the roof was an added bonus for a relaxing hour or so at the end of the end of the day. The location was very good, just down the road from Spinola Bay although it is on quite a steep hill so be prepared.

Cons:

Room 3 had a nice little Maltese balcony but the rest of the room had perhaps larger furniture than it needed making it appear smaller than it needed to be and the bathroom/toilet was functional but small and tight. Not that much can be done about it I appreciate.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay and would happily come back again. We especially enjoyed the swimming pool, which was clean and perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The breakfast was delicious and offered a great variety of options.

We also appreciated the water fountain, which was very convenient, especially during the warm weather. Another nice touch was the selection of board games available to borrow, which made our evenings even more enjoyable.

The location is excellent, with plenty of restaurants nearby, as well as a laundry service within walking distance. There is also a convenient passage close to the property that leads directly to a supermarket, making it very easy to pick up anything we needed.

Thank you for the great hospitality and for making our stay so enjoyable!
