"Nice updated and clean hotel. Beds are a little firm and you need to bring a top sheet as in Europe they don't use top sheets just duvet and bottom sheet. Concierge staff were amazing helping us with whatever we need. Stayed for 2 weeks so took advantage of the breakfast buffet. They had a good variety of foods to choose from. If ordering lunch or supper was a bit pricey so we ate mostly at restaurants around the hotel. Lots to choose from as this hotel is in a nice location 25 minutes walking to Silema or the other way Balluta Bay area. General manager took time to meet and talk with guests."
