I like that the T&B is ensuite. Not one, but 2 T&B in female dorm. Spacious living room to chill and i even used the corner to pray. Glad only one person was there. This hostel is perfect for female solo traveler esp for Muslims who value privacy. The movie night on Friday? I love thatl!❤️
In Room 003, one of the T&B doesn’t have hooks as the other toilet. Also for bed D, pls fix the hook for clothes.

Very responsive, easy check in, nice staff. Breakfast was good.
They should think about a plan b for when it’s raining (everyone was in the small kitchen). Some guests are a bit too old and it’s a bit weird sharing the room with them lol

It has a strategic location, I liked also that it's a very big hostel with different areas to enjoy free time, the pool was also nice and in general was comfortable
I feel it has potential to become a better place to stay in Malta, they should organize activities to integrate the guest, I've seen many people from different ages walking randomly without much idea on how to socialize, and the hostel was hosting different meetup events but all of them with extra fees that ideally should be free for the guest, a nice way to bring people together also to take advantage of the areas of the building.
For me, where Missing free walking tours - socializing nights - guidance through the city - plans to discover the Islands... So many things and activities that can be done to actually make the guest enjoy the stay, and choose this hostel over other ones and actually mark the difference!
* Showers and toilets were missing for the size of the hostel capacity ( ex: 10 litter room with 1 inside toilet and 2 showers ) that was a mess, specially in summer. it's proven that having the services inside the room is not comfortable. The noises, the crowds to take showers, the smells... Please guys designate an area for common showers and toilets, you guys have the space for it!!!

Close to a sandy beach. 100 m to SPAR convenience store. Pool is small, but perfect. Air con worked well. Very social.
Some mould in shower area needs to be addressed. Pool bar hours could be extended.

The boutique hostel was lively with lots of activities, bringing people together. It clean and fun! Easily located near restaurants and some markets.
I can't think of a thing.

Absolutely terrible experience. This is one of the worst hotel stays I have ever had. The service was extremely disappointing, the staff were unhelpful, and the overall environment did not feel safe at all.
Absolutely terrible experience. This is one of the worst hotel stays I have ever had. The service was extremely disappointing, the staff were unhelpful, and the overall environment did not feel safe at all.
What makes this even worse is that some of my personal belongings went missing during my stay. That is completely unacceptable. Guests should be able to leave their belongings in a hotel without constantly worrying about their safety or whether their things will still be there.
When I raised my concerns, I did not feel that the situation was handled seriously or professionally. The lack of proper security and accountability is extremely concerning.
I would NOT recommend this hotel to anyone. Poor service, poor security, and a very unpleasant experience from start to finish. Management seriously needs to address these issues because guests deserve to feel safe and respected, and unfortunately, I experienced neither here.

- The location is fine; the airport is easily accessible. Supermarkets and restaurants are nearby.
- Nice common area with a large kitchen and refrigerator.
- Breakfast is okay, but not outstanding.
- Unfriendly receptionist (only one). Several guests in the room found that their wristband key cards weren't working. We reported the issue but all received the same response: the claim that we didn't know how to use them :(
- Since the top bunk lacked any kind of overhead screen or shield, one was directly exposed to the room's overhead lighting. In the end, we mostly turned the light off completely. Avoid top bunk!
- During my stay, there was no hot water for showering on two occasions. Even though it was summer, guests still wanted to take warm showers.

Great hostel with amazing views. Nice pool area to lounge. Great rooms with comfortable beds. Great kitchen for cooking and good dining area. Very spacious so lots of areas to hang out and relax.
Short walk 3 minutes down the hill to the main street to catch a bus. Also right in front of the harbour sea view and can swim there too. Water was so warm. Lots of shopping and restaurants to walk to around the city or hop a bus. Highly recommend. They even have roosters staying in the big grass area, that escaped a nearby farm. They will wake you up at 5pm for sure.

The hostel is located in a nice area close very close to the beach, bus stop, cafes and convenience stores. On some days traditional Maltese food is served for breakfast, which is a great opportunity to out more of the local flavors. The 6-persons room was quite spacious with 2 showers and space for to store belongings.
The hostel doesn´t have an elevator, so it can be a bit challenging to take luggage to the second floor, luckily it´s not too many stairs. Pool area isn´t very large, but since the beach is nearby, I found it nicer to go for a swim to the beach.

An amazing hostel in a central location where everything, including bus stops and ferries, is within easy walking distance.
The rooms are clean, and I really liked the extra privacy provided by curtains on each bed.
There are also plenty of common areas to relax or meet other people. Breakfast is included.
A big shout out to Susan, who welcomed me at check-in and gave me plenty of helpful tips to get the best out of my stay in Malta. Overall I had a great stay and will definitely be back.
It would be great to see more vegan options at breakfast.
If you can choose, aim for the 4-person room. I spent one night in a 6-person room, but the bathroom was quite small and lacked privacy due to a thin door that would not shut properly
Luggage storage after checkout required extra payment (too bad since there is plenty of space)

Nice staff
Good location
Breakfast
Common areas, pool
Beach towels provided
10bed female room experience:
1 toilet working with a door that does not lock/fully close
No hooks in the shower to hang your clothes/towels
Mold and moldy smell
Top bed is the worst - light right in front of your face and air conditioner too; bottom bed is way better

The location is great, the property is beautiful, and the pool area has a lot of potential. The staff were friendly, and the hostel has a nice social atmosphere. I also really enjoyed the sea views and the overall setting
The pool bar was not always open, and there was often no music around the pool, which reduced the vibe and made the atmosphere less lively. The Maltese breakfast was also disappointing and, in my opinion, should either be significantly improved or removed

Great location, only a few steps away from Balluta Bay Beach. Booked a room at a great discounted price. It was surprisingly quiet. The front yard and the pool area were beautiful.
The room was a mess. Water was constantly dripping from the A/C and nobody did anything to fix it. They literally placed a bucket under it to collect the water. At some point it was difficult to sleep with the noise it made.
I received a towel that was visibly dirty, the curtains of my bed were nasty.
The breakfast was okay but nothing special. At some point i received a piece of bread with mold on it.
They wouldn’t keep my luggage for free after I checked out.
