I was in a group from Malta, last week. The rooms very very nice and large and clean, however the bed was hard and the WiFi was intermittent, ( I had to stand beside the door to the corridor). One of the waitresses doubled up as a chambermaid, so obviously overworked. None of them spoke English and myself being English only know a few Italian words,( as Italian was not taught in school, so it was hard to communicate. It was located away from any town centres, so the one day when we didn't go with the group and no evening meal was provided, there was no where to walk to for a proper meal. ( We took a taxi in the morning to Garda where we had lunch Lunch, and assumed we could get something A la Carte in the evening at the hotel, just Pasta or something, but we were shown the menu for the German group for all 3 courses, which would have been too much food). Most hotels offer some sort of food other than the half board.
Guess this would be OK for business travellers but not for Tourists who like to walk out in the evening to bars etc.
The one good thing was that for our coach trips we were very close to the lake, but too far for walking.
