-Location was great -The room has modern furniture and is really comfortable -Good price -Staff is very helpful, I couldn't enter the front door at check-in, because the key code machine (don't know how to call it haha) was broken, so I called the property and Saury helped me instantly getting in by giving me a code to a key box with the back-up key and guided me through the check-in process Btw I noticed they changed the broken key code machine on the same day, which I thought was awesome

The hostel is unique and special.the staff members are highly professional and cooperative especially a young lady at the reception desk called Aastha.She is always smiling and kindhearted.the right person in the right place.the guys who prepare breakfast are no exception in deed. They are doing a colossal job.Thank you all for making me feel at home and for making my stay in Malta an exceptional experience. The swimming pool is also a smart idea .So when it's hot , you don't need to take the trouble to move to the beach ، you can take advantage and cool yourself at home. Thank you again and looking forward to see you ASP .

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Single female traveller: the location was safe, v central, quiet but v convenient for sightseeing and eating out. Also v convenient for the bus station and cheap local buses to all parts of the island. The outlook over the gardens was beautiful. The host was super helpful with suggestions for sightseeing and restaurants.

    The hostel has a great location, close to the main street and you can see the harbor from the bedroom window, the premises are spacious, clean and stylish. Lockers available, but you have to bring your own small padlock. And bring your own hairdryer with you if you will need such because it's not provided on spot.

    The location and the price are perfect to visit Malta's capital city on a low budget. The apartment where the rooms are is very nice and in an historical place. We were even very lucky to have a violoncello duo (guests of the hostel) playing a short concert in the living room on Sunday evening. Great idea! Thank you Marina!
