satisfied stay

helpful staff extra night reasonable rate clean hotel

I appreciated the helpful staff. my return flight got canceled. the hotel booked me automatically on a flight the next day. The hotel also arranged an extra night at a reasonable rate, and communication was EXCELLENT. The hotel looks lovely and very clean.

The hotel restaurants closed due to the low season. this could have been clearer to me and it was disappointing.

Location

The location is picturesque on the shore, with a bay located only a five minute walk away. Taxis to locations such as Mdina and Valletta are cheap at around a euro per minute.
