After a hard day of touring around Malta, it was the perfect accomodation to relax with some AC turned on, a nice shower and get a goodnight sleep. I had a very pleasant stay and the staff were exceptionally nice!

The hostel was spotless and well-equipped with everything one might need. Its location is also great, surrounded by bars, restaurants, shops, and plenty of interesting spots to explore. A huge shoutout to Sandra and Aldo at the reception, they truly went above and beyond! From helping me with my broken phone to giving fantastic recommendations on places to eat, must-visit attractions, and the best bus routes, they made my stay so much easier. The entire staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. It was an amazing first trip to Malta, and I can't wait to return!

Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    It‘s a very nice place to stay, the staff is very friendly and helpful. I got many great recommendations what to see in Malta as well, which was awesome :) The location in Sliema is great, a nice and safe area from where you can also reach all other enjoyable areas in Malta well. It‘s a very clean hostel. Also, I liked the pretty tiles on the floor in my room :)
