A Decent Stay

friendly staffconvenient locationshort walkcomplicated switchesunreadable writingunattractive pit
I found the staff very friendly. They were attentive. The hotel location is well situated, with a short walk to shops and restaurants. The ferry to Valletta is also a short, comfortable walk away.
The light switches were complicated. The tiny writing on the switches was hard to read. I accidentally requested my room to be cleaned instead of turning the light on. The pool area is owned by a third party. The sunbeds allocated to hotel guests are in a sunken pit around the back.
