Tolles Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.
Pros:

Die Lage war top. Man kann alles zu Fuß gehen und ist sofort im Stadtzentrum von Valetta. Auch der Strand bzw. der Hafen / das Meer ist nicht weit weg.
Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr aufmerksam und super hilfsbereit Wünsche um zu setzen. Ich habe meine Frau zum Geburtstag Blumen bestellt. Diese haben die Mitarbeiter im Zimmer schön angerichtet platziert. Tolle Mitarbeiter

Cons:

Nichts zu meckern. Es war alles ok.

Lo consiglio!
Pros:

Abbiamo ricevuto un upgrade che ha reso il soggiorno molto più confortevole. La camera era pulita e spaziosa. La colazione e’ ottima e ben presentata. Un addetto pulisce il buffet continuamente quindi la postazione rimane sempre pulita. Posizione ottima.

Cons:

Assenza di persiane ai balconi. Un po’ troppa luce al mattino.

Ottima esperienza da poter migliorare di poco
Pros:

Ottima la pulizia ,la colazione ,lo staff e la posizione

Cons:

Purtroppo piccola nota da fare sono i cuscini scomodi e un particolarita' che viene spesso sottovalutato la notte entra tanta luce dalle finestre proprio al lato del letto e per chi come me dorme al buoi è trerribile

Fin de semana en Malta
Pros:

La ubicación y la amabilidad del personal.

Cons:

La habitación que nos asignaron (2), estaba en el.piso de entrada al hotel y solo tenia una ventana a un patio a través de la cual no entraba luz natural. Estaba limpia y la camada era cómoda.
