I liked the breakfast, the location was very beautiful, quiet and peaceful.
Someone stole my winter jacket, and the hostel did not have a policy set up for a situation like this. The lack of urgency, care, and customer service was very disappointing. Finally, when I could speak with the manager of the property, I was able to get compensated. First time this has happened to me in a hostel in Europe. Unacceptable.

Everything was really good - the staff, facilities, room, local breakfast, location with a nice view. Stayed in a female room, 6 beds.
It would be really nice to have 2 towels (not just 1 big) - 1 big and 1 small. Bad luck - there was no WIFI for a while (around a day) and the coincidence that it was Independence Day so the technician couldn't come since it was a festivity. But again, that's just bad luck I guess

Very nice, clean hostel. The beds were comfortable and provided quite a lot of privacy. The public areas and the kitchen were modern and clean. Staff was nice and helpful. The location is good, 3 minutes away from the bus stop and the supermarket, the area has a lot of cafes and bars. The breakfast was good and tasty and the sea view from the veranda was gorgeous!

I loved the vibe. Impeccable. It’s the most expensive hostel I’ve stayed in outside of the USA, and worth every penny. The staff, facilities, location, guests and food combined into the best experience. Ask for recommendations for what you want to do. I did everything on my list (thanks, Pamela!) Don’t miss the tiramisu at Pamen and the ice cream at Cremilla in Valletta.

This is simply an amazing place where you truly relax and feel at home. The most important thing here is the people - warm, open, and genuinely kind. The atmosphere is special - friendly and full of positive energy. Beautiful location with sea views and close to the beach, spacious rooms, and a big kitchen, everything you need to feel comfortable. A special thank you to Carla and Paula - such wonderful people who make this place even more special. I ended up staying longer than planned and coming back again. Highly recommended.

Excellent location. Breakfast included is a great option; it offers either a local Maltese breakfast with tapas-style food or a continental breakfast with great coffee. Hostel has fully equipped kitchen to cook your own food, with ample storage. Hairdryer and iron available at the reception. Nice and helpful staff.

Good location for a solo traveller, everything is accessible
I went during off season, so it was a bit quiet. But not the hostel’s fault of course
