Very nice hostel! The staff is friendly and helpful, always ready to assist. The rooms are clean, with daily housekeeping. There are comfortable areas for both relaxing and working — I especially liked the cozy terrace and the garden spaces for spending time outdoors. Great location: close to bus stops, with easy access to the sea, and surrounded by plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops. A perfect place for a comfortable stay.

The hostel has a great location—close to the bus station, restaurants, and even a nearby beach (though locals don't seem to recommend it). The breakfast offers several options, and you can enjoy a lovely view while eating. There’s also a swimming pool within the relaxation area, and also a kitchen where food is neatly labeled. The staff were attentive and even let us stay after check-out while we waited for our flight. Rooms and bathrooms were kept spotlessly clean thanks to daily cleaning. Overall, a pleasant stay!

I stayed in a shared dorm which is nice to solo travelers to keep your own privacy on the bed surrounded by curtains. And the room was kept all the time clean by the friendly and helpful staff. Besides, the location of the hostel is perfect for people who would prefer a quiet night in St Julian. At breakfast time, the view of the sea is fantastic.

For a hostel this was great value. Breakfast included with a sweet and savoury, pool area to relax in, a kitchen with option to store food. Rooms were cleaned daily and the lockers were a good size, I liked that could keep our suitcase open in them. I was on a top bunk right next to the aircon so was glad I had a jumper as it did get a bit cool right under it. It wasn’t too noisy aside from the local roosters in the park next to it, which is out of the hostels control.

Really amazing hostel experience! This was my first time being a solo female traveller and I’m glad I booked here! The hostel is very big and so are the common areas. It is bright and clean and has an amazing location. They have a beautiful garden and pool. Staff was friendly and nice and so were other guests. It is located pretty centrally so you’re able to see all the major sights. They also have a well organized food storage system for travellers who cook.

There are many beautiful places in the world, but this hostel isn’t worth your money. If you bring a good pair of earplugs, you might survive the noise – the rooster concert is funny, but the AC is a nightmare. I’d honestly prefer the roosters over the horrible, Anatolian-farmer-style air conditioner. It’s Malta, not a Russian winter – who needs that thing at night? If you’re into insomnia tourism, this hostel will be top-tier for you. I also found a dead bug next to my bed – just in case you’re into that kind of local “flavor.” I personally avoid English- and German-speaking countries. Don’t ask me why. This place isn’t far from hell – but then again, Malta is trash anyway. Good luck finding any sane Europeans. Watch out for greasy, tall men lurking around who like to sexually harass women. Also beware of narcissists who randomly ask if you’ve “taken your meds” – like they’re anyone to talk.

Stayed in room 208 for 3 nights. ||The room had 6 bunks, A/C, two fans, a table, some chairs and plenty of room. Each bunk comes with a locker underneath the bottom bunk. It was large enough to fit even a large backpack. Each bunk had privacy curtains, private light, two sockets, a very thin sheet to use as a blanket. One of the two sockets is used for private light though. The mattress was soft. Too soft for my personal tastes, but it was okay for 3 nights. In the room, the A/C is only on from I think 7am to 7pm. Guests (including myself) have to ask more than once for it to be turned on, which is annoying. There is limited AC around the hotel and the common areas are uncomfortable to stay around.||The bathroom was private, but not ensuite and in a room opposite the dorm. In the bathroom was a WC and two showers. It was okay in terms of cleanliness, but the silicone had mould and really needed to be replaced. There's also not much ventilation, so expect to get hot and sweaty after a shower. Water pressure was okay and no problem getting hot water.||Breakfast was included and there's a buffet with cooked food, choices of cereal, tea, coffee and juices. The cooked food includes scrambled eggs, baked beans and bacon. The breakfast was varied enough for a 3 night stay.||WiFi is available throughout the hotel, although it's unsecured. It works well.||The hotel is located close to Balluta Bay and approximately the middle of a hill. I've only tried getting to Valletta via the ferry and it's about a 15-20 minutes walk to the port. The hostel has several common areas including a pool, kitchen and a large dining/lounge space. However, none of these areas are air conditioned.||Overall I had a decent stay. The location is average, the breakfast is good, the rooms and bathrooms need a refresh, but the lack of A/C makes the place unbearably hot.

I liked the friendliness of the staff! They were happy to help with any question or enquiry. They let me store my luggage before the check in time. Breakfast was also nice and included in the accommodation price. The location is a really great one! In the heart of St. Julian and very close the plenty of restaurants, stores and the beach! The ground space of the hostel is large! They have a nice kitchen to be shared with everyone hosted! And also a tiny pool where you can cool down when it gets too hot. I didn't like that they hosted me at the highest floor in the 'penthouse' of the hostel, which is basically a room with 6 beds one on top of another one, with its own bathroom shared among guests and a large but pretty empty terrace. The matress and the bed frame was not confortable. I was assigned to a top bed and it was painful to always climb the iron ladder to get on my bed. The cleanliness and the state of the bathroom was not the greatest, but it was kinda okay. They stated they have air conditioning, but I only saw a fan hanged on the wall and even tho my visit happened in May, it was already pretty hot during the day. As it was a room on the top floor it can get super hot and intense during the summer days. So I hardly recommend to avoid that room and maybe get one with a real air conditioner! Overall my experience was decent
