Adequate stay, with some drawbacks

central locationrooftop terracelower-grade room
The location was wonderful. Shops, restaurants, and attractions were all within easy reach. The rooftop terrace offered views over the Grand Harbour. It was relaxing.
This happened despite my having a confirmation email from the hotel. It took the staff about half an hour to find a lower-grade room for my first night. It CAUSED some problems.
