Slušný hotel za dobré peniaze v pokojnej lokalite
Pros:

Vyhovujúca lokalita, všetko bolo blízko - od obchodu, pláže, autobusovej zastávky či podnikov. Priamy spoj na letisko. Personál bol veľmi milý a nápomocný, s ničím nebol problém. Po skončení ubytovania do nášho odchodu sme si mohli nechať kufre na recepcii či využiť toaletu. Keď som mala problém so zamknutím dverí na izbe, recepčný mi ochotne pomohol, na raňajkách nás už po pár dňoch poznali aj podľa čísla izby. Ubytovanie disponuje peknou terasou s výhľadom na najvyššom poschodí.

Cons:

Kúpeľňa by mohla mať viac vybavenia - chýbal fén a sprchový gél (asi omylom, šampón tam bol), nedala sa pustiť z umývadla studená voda, ak človek nevypol bojler na vodu. V izbe vedľa manželskej postele na jednej strane nebola žiadna zástrčka a vedľa druhej doslova celý adaptér s mnohými zástrčkami. Klimatizácii by sa zišlo vyčistiť filter. Raňajky boli fajn, ale každý deň to bolo to isté bez akejkoľvek zmeny (okrem ovocia). Na manželskej posteli by sme uprednostnili samostatnú perinu a nie jednu spoločnú.

Hotel carino e accogliente, buona posizione
Pros:

Ottima colazione con una buona varietà di scelta dolce/salato

Cons:

la stanza risultava un po’ piccolina e ai piani più bassi aprire le finestre comportava far entrare aria pesante e odori non gradevoli

Posizione buona, quartiere tranquillo, puoi raggiungere tutte le attrazioni di Malta in poco tempo!
Pros:

La posizione comoda e flessibile per visitare Malta se ti muovi con i bus, a 300 mt puoi prendere le linee via mare con il traghetto Ferries per visitare Gozo, Comino e Blu Lagoon.
L'imbarco per la Valletta dalla parte opposta si può raggiungere comodamente a piedi, distanza 1Km. oppure con i bus
Colazione ottima e con ampia scelta.
Camerieri gentili e disponibili.
Anche alla reception tutti gentili, anche se parlano solo inglese.

Cons:

L'isonorizzazione delle finestre andrebbe migliorata.
Se vogliamo essere pignoli, i cuscini e il materasso un poco scomodi, ma per pochi giorni passabili.

Buen hotel calidad/precio.
Pros:

Hablaban español. La ubicación era espectacular, cerca de las paradas de los buses. Hotel cómodo y buen trato al cliente. Desayuno mejor de lo que esperábamos. Baño muy amplio.

Cons:

Lo único que nos disgustó es que se escuchaba bastante el ruido de otros huéspedes. Por la noche nos despertamos en varias ocasiones debido a esto. Entendemos que esto depende también en gran medida del respeto del cliente hacia otros huéspedes y no del establecimiento.

Genuinely friendly and super helpful staff. Generous breakfast. Amazing location. Rooms too small.
Pros:

The room was wayyy too small for two people. There was no real place to put one suitcase let alone two.

Cons:

Room size was our only real issue. But is not a small issue. Everything else was really great.
