One of the best hostels I've stayed in Europe. Very organised, clean, friendly staff (especially Felipe!). Excellent location - close to the party area but still in a quiet space. Breakfast was good. I would certainly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting Malta.

The staff is amazing, so kind, friendly and helpful. Thay are doing a great job.. The property is incredibly clean, kitchen fully equipped and you can cook your own food.

It's just a great hostel on a side street. I was concerned about noise pollution when coming to Malta, but this place is really quiet. I slept well 8 hours every night. They provide towels too which is nice. Staff and guests were very friendly. Outdoor areas are nice too.

Everything was clean, the room was pretty quiet, there are 3 toilets, one im the room, the other two in the common area, and two bathrooms. Kitchen and leisure rooms were quite nice and there were loads of dishes. Beach is nearby as well as the stores. And there is a very cheap bakery just above the hostel. Guests are really quiet. Use the jacuzzi, it is cool! The staff was really really nice and helpful! Would recommend!
