They were very welcoming! Everything was well cared for, the community space was always open for anyone (they didn't even really mind when people would let others in when the receptionists were off, since usually it was either well-known friends or other guests wanting to get out of the sun, etc). The kitchen was clean, and even though the beds were all rather cramped together and it was a little hard to get up into the top bunk every night, I had a genuinely rlly good experience there

Nice little hostel for those on a budget

We checked in super late and got the keys no problem. Unfortunately we couldn’t figure out where the private room was but finally someone helped us. The private room was decent. I was super excited to check out the rooftop spa and I found out that it was a dirty little hot tub and only open during certain times. The worker said that it wouldn’t be very warm, so we didn’t go in it. The rooftop isn’t very well maintained, my partner almost fell through the roof! Great area though and it was super close to shops and St. juliens bay which was nice.

This was the most disgusting hostel I've ever stayed in. I'm not expecting much - but guys, the furniture was so gross in the common area that i didn't want to sit on it. My bed had a bug in it, the walls were absolutely filthy. I really considered just sleeping at the airport. DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE.

Confortável e próximo ao centro

Fiquei apenas 1 dia, pois meu voo era no período da noite, por este motivo escolhi o hostel. Apesar do curtíssimo período, esse momento foi o suficiente para ver um poico do espaço que eles oferecem. Deixei a minha mala quardada em uma caixa estilo baú abaixo da cama que era a minha (coloquei cadeado para proteção) o espaço comportou perfeitamente minhas malas, a cama era muito confortável e tinha travesseiro e um edredon, no meu espaço tinha também uma caixa onde era possível deixar o celular carregando. Cortinas faziam a divisão e proporcionando privacidade e um ambiente escuro e conforto para dormir. O banheiro era muito limpo, bem como a cozinha. Todo o hostel tinha um agradável cheiro de limpeza e foi extremamente convidativo e se mostrou muito organizado. Extremamente proximo ao centro e a 1 minuto andando do ponto de ônibus que vinha de Vallettta. Recomendo

I wanted to like the hostel--the staff and guests are very nice, but it is very misleading to say that there is AC when it is only turned on after 10 pm at night. It was over 100 degrees for two of the days I stayed, and was sweltering in the hostel. And there is no ceiling fan in the room I was in... The lack of amenities and poor location (about a 20 minute walk and up a hill from the town center and the nearest buses) make this a poor choice.
