An amazing place! Fulfilled all expectations. Staff very friendly and willing to help you all the time. The breakfast is included and is excellent (I think the best I've ever had in a hostel). The shared areas and the kitchen are very well equipped. The pool and garden is perfect to enjoy and meet people. Also it is close to a bus station so you can move easily everywhere. I would gladly recommend it and will be back.

The location is excellent. Staff was in touch and responding right away as my flight was delayed. I received information about how to travel from the airport to the hostel and staff waited for me until I arrived (past their check in time). Dhanraj especially was the kindest and provided lots of information about how to get around town. The young women staff were very helpful as well. I definately recommend this hostel.

    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 :)
