Great place to stay in Malta
Pros:

We had a great stay at Vela Blue. The room itself was incredibly spacious and kept spotlessly clean throughout our time there. One thing we absolutely loved was that they provided travel adapters for every single one of us—such a thoughtful, practical touch that you don't always see, and it was incredibly useful!

Overall, it’s a wonderful place to stay in Malta, and we would definitely recommend it!

Cons:

The only minor downside was the balcony; it was missing a small table and chairs, which would have been perfect for sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air.

Cons:

Το μόνο που δεν μ άρεσε στο κατάλυμα είναι ότι ενώ ζήτησα να καθαρίσουν το δωμάτιο μ από το προσωπικό και στην αρχή ενώ καθάριζε το δίπλα και του είπαμε σε 5 λεπτά για να φύγουμε αυτός είπε όχι ή τώρα ή το απόγευμα ή καθόλου και μετά το ξανά ζήτησα όταν έφυγα και ήταν ακόμα εκεί και καθάριζε το δίπλα ενώ υποτίθεται κάθε μέρα καθαρίζετε και αλλάζουν πετσέτες ο καθαριστής έκανε και καλά πως δεν κατάλαβε και ενώ το ζήτησα γύρισα το απόγευμα και δεν μου το καθάρισε ποτέ και φάνηκε και ενοχλημένος όταν το ζήτησα

Pros:

Everything exceeded our expectations. The accommodation was very clean and in a great location. The room was cleaned every day, with fresh towels and bed linen replaced daily. We also received new coffee capsules every day.

The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable.

The property is very close to the promenade, making it easy to enjoy an evening walk along the waterfront all the way to St. Julian's. Shops, restaurants, and bus stops are all within a short walking distance.

Cons:

The only downside was the heat in the entrance area, the elevator, and the stairwell. Considering how hot it is outside, it would have been much more comfortable if the air conditioning had been running in these common areas.

Pros:

La camera aveva i suoi comfort standard, letto comodo, riassetto della stanza giornaliero con cambio asciugamani giornaliero e altri servizi di prima necessità. Servizi essenziali come tv, frigo, aria condizionata. Inoltre venivano fornite le cialde per il caffè.

Cons:

L'unica nota negativa, se vogliamo essere precisi, riguarda le dimensioni del lavandino. Lavarsi i denti o la faccia era un'impresa, ma soprattutto non far gocciolare l'acqua per terra.
