I've had a perfect stay for example having permanent menus set up around the pool and beach rather than new paper ones distributed every time. There was variety of good options for English breakfast. I liked the staff, mainly due to their courtesy. The hotel had a central location and it was within walking distance of Msida Bastion Historic Garden. The area was very very nice, a welcome base for me
