Every time I go walking at Marsascala, I see this abandoned building formerly the Jerma hotel.
This huge building is very dangerous. If someone gets in he could fall because there are no windows. It is dirty so people could get infections. Dogs, cats and rats may reproduce inside. This site may be a meeting point for thieves and drug dealers. Outside the building there is no sign to warn children that the area is out of bounds. It is an eye sore near the coast so because of this less tourists are staying in Marsascala, for this resort is not so attractive anymore.
Something about this abandoned building must be done. The owners can restore it into a hotel again. It could be converted into a school or a home for old people.
Anything is better than the state it is in now!
