My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and very clean, but there was an issue with the heating, and we encountered a giant bug in our room early in the morning. The service was a bit of a hit and miss - while the staff were excellent, they weren't very helpful when it came to recommendations for tours and local attractions. The location was a bit out of the way, although public transport was easily accessible. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of ups and downs. The room I booked, a superior double, was comfortable with heating, a flat-screen TV, balcony, and comfy beds. However, it was disappointing that there was no minibar or fridge in the room. At first, everything seemed well-prepared for our stay, but upon arrival, I was informed that the room was suddenly not available despite receiving an email confirming otherwise just two days prior.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious, very clean, and quiet, but the location was a bit inconvenient, tucked away from the center of St Paul's Bay and far from the action in Bugibba. The service had its ups and downs, with some friendly and helpful staff, but also some lapses like forgetting our room key. The dining options were decent overall, with a good selection but not always served piping hot. However, the facilities were more than satisfactory, making the stay comfortable.

The hotel has some issues with room maintenance, particularly related to leaking bathrooms on lower floors, but opting for higher floors with balconies can mitigate this. The staff were accommodating, especially considering special dietary needs, though management was lacking in addressing problems. Despite the need for room refurbishments, the magnificent view from the pool area compensates for this, coupled with convenient access to transportation and activities. The dining experience, while satisfactory in terms of some dishes, could benefit from improvements in egg preparations.

The hotel offers mixed experiences: very clean and spacious rooms with some nice touches like European power outlets, but severely lacking service at the reception. The location may not be ideal due to surroundings, but public transport is easily accessible. The dining options fall short with limited quality and variety.

The hotel may have some issues, like noise from the nearby lift and stairs every morning, and occasional bathroom leaks, but overall, the rooms are satisfactory for a 3-star hotel, and the breakfast is enjoyable. The service is friendly and helpful, with staff who remember returning guests and assist with various services. The location is convenient, with easy access to bus stops for exploring the area. The dining experience is decent, though the coffee may not be to everyone's liking. The facilities meet basic needs, and the overall value for money is reasonable.
