The check in and especially the guy from reception Juan was super polite and very nice, i arrived with low battery and he even found me a charger and showed me everything, gave towels etc. The bed was comfy and it was quite good regarding cleanliness, I read some bad reviews about it but nothing was applicable, cleanliness was on point. Super good location and overall great place to stay!

I enjoyed my stay in Walter's B and B. The hostel was clean and well maintained (I believe the no outdoor shoes policy is a contributing factor as well). Mark, who received me, was especially helpful with info on getting out and about. He even sent me a sample itinerary. With your stay here, you need not worry about access to the town and other locations as it is located close to the bus stops. There are also restaurants and grocery shops nearby if you want to get things to make a quick meal in the kitchen. There is however a €2 fee (I think it's an environmental fee) which wasn't mentioned in the ad so you may want to bear this in mind. In all, I enjoyed my time there and would recommend it to anyone who is travelling on a budget.

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.

All hostels in Sliema

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

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!
