Pros:

Man hatte eine sehr gute Anbindung, egal wo man hin wollte. Die Bushaltestelle war in der Nähe. Die Altstadt war gleich um die Ecke. Wer gut zu Fuß ist kann vom Flughafen aus zum Hotel laufen. Dass Frühstück gibt es nicht im Hotel, es ist aber kein Problem. Raus aus dem Hotel und 50 m rechts, auf der anderen Seite ist eine Tür und dort befindet sich ein Lokal und der Pool. Dass Hotel ist sehr alt und hat eine Geschichte --> einfach mal googeln :-)

Cons:

Das Frühstücksangebot war nicht so gut.

Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

Cleanliness was terrible. A/C unit in the room looked like the filter had never been cleaned. Overall cleanliness was really bad. Very old hotel in need of renovation. Not worth the price.

Great place and centrally located.
Pros:

Great location, quiet place and next to the museum. The pictures show exactly how it is, great pool. Bedrooms and carpets are dated but the communal areas provide space to work on a laptop and the pool area was nice and not overcrowded during October. I’m pleased and could not ask for more.

Cons:

The fact that people can smoke in their rooms, one evening I could smell it in my room so I put a towel across the doorway. But the culture in Gibraltar is different and the place was quiet.

A lovely accommodation for the cost, ideal location. Be nice if had coffee facilities in the room
Cons:

The pool is not in the hotel, but over the road / lane. No big issue but write up makes it sound like it’s in the grounds.

Essere in Inghilterra senza essere in Inghilterra
Pros:

Gentilezza e disponibilità dello Staff
Posizione
Presenza della piscina

Cons:

Moquettes ovunque, anche in bagno, va eliminata e igienizzato tutto.
Arredi delle camere vecchi e rovinati andrebbero sistemati
Buffet colazione poco curato e tutto confezionato, la colazione inglese non è proprio così.
