Key things to know about Paceville, Malta

Nightlife in Malta, mainly in Paceville, is very lively, with lots of nightclubs and strip clubs around. If you're a fan of clubbing, Paceville is the place to be. However, besides having fun, you should also always keep your eyes open, and ready for anything, even when you're drunk. I recently heard from someone I know that he was totally drunk, just getting home from Paceville, when he was attacked by three dudes, one with a knife. The purpose - to rob the guy. Well, he was drunk, really drunk, but fortunately he's also not the weakest guy you can see on the streets. When the police arrived, two guys were down unconscious, the third one had run away. The police arrested the guy still standing - the robbery victim. Fortunately though, there was CCTV around, and police understood who the real victim was here, even though the unconscious ones were the other guys.
