    Room would have felt relatively small if all the beds were taken.

    Great location in St Julians. Easy to reach Valletta with bus stop close to the hostel. Good choice of breakfast. Towel is also given to guests.

    The only problem that I had is due to the heater, due to Malta being a summer tourist place, so the bedrooms were a little bit cold, however they gave me a second blanket that was sufficient! another thing that commonly happens in Malta, as the stuff said, is that the boiler can’t handle the number of baths.

    The location is simply perfect, near to everything. The common areas were big, clean and very comfortable. Bedrooms were also comfortable and with privacy! Breakfast was really good with a lot of options, the staff was cordial and very helpful, kindness!

    By far the best Hostel I have ever stayed in and I loved everything about it! First of all the Staff - so warm, so friendly and so helpful! The atmosphere - so many amazing people from all over the world! Location - so close to the centre yet peaceful with an amazing view! Value for money - located in a beautiful historic building, beautiful mix of antique and modern interiors, swimming pool, amazing breakfast, plus very, very clean! I was really sad to leave but will deffinatelly come back one day!

    This Hostel is definitely the best one I stayed in. The rooms are clean and cozy (bunk beds with curtains), the breakfast is more than good and the staff is very nice. There is also a small room for chilling with books, and a beautiful garden with fruit trees, and a swimming pool next to it. I could write so much more, but you have to see it for yourself, you won’t regret the experience.

    Coathangers are in one cabinet for all. 2 Hooks on each bunk bed would do the job better. The light switches are confusing, there could be written which switch turns what on.

    Great breakfast buffet, really fancy hotel-like hostel at a great price.

    Inwahi is one of the best hostels I've been to in my life! (+40). It's my second time here, and it feels like home :) (long stay) The staff is great, especially Giorgio, very helpful and friendly! Every morning you can enjoy the wonderful view of the sea and the best breakfast (included). They have many options for breakfast: vegetarian, continental and also English breakfast! The location is quite good, you can catch the bus just 4 minutes walk away, and you are also in the middle of the best places in Malta, Paceville, Sliema, Spinola Bay, Balluta Bay, Cat Park. If you need to work or study, they have comfortable common areas for that. Definitely Inhawi is the best option for a long stay in Malta!

    At present, I am unable to offer any advice as it has been challenging to identify any negative points or flaws.

    I truly enjoyed my stay at the hostel. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful during my stay. The place was very clean and well-equipped, with a cozy room featuring comfortable beds. I will definitely be returning in the future.

    I highly recommend the hostel. Thanks Clara (specially for the tea), Jorge, and all the stuff. You guys rock! Just a few minutes from the beach and others nice spots, the hostel is located nearby lots of facilities and buses stop. The room was clean and tidy with a comfortable bed and bathroom. The breakfast was a plus in the outdoor area facing the sea. Winter or Summer in Malta worth it.

    The breakfast ending at 10am was a bit inconvenient, and the fact that we cannot change our towels for free.

    Honestly everything was absolutely great! Particularly the practicality of the facilities, the nice rules to ensure a good stay, and the guitarre in the lounge area that got us bonding with other guests!

    The breakfast coffee could be a little bit stronger ;) And I believe that is what you should expect from a hostel and staying in a room with 5 other people but there were some inconveniences regarding that - one person snoring and another yelling at them made us all pretty uncomfortable one night. But my advice is just to keep your head open and be nice to your roommates :)

    The hostel was recommended to us by a friend and it did not disappoint. The stuff is super nice and helpful, our room was big and the beds comfortable. I was really surprised by the breakfast included in the price - there was a full English breakfast, toasts, cereal, fruit, we couldn't want more. We used the kitchen and dining area, we found everything we needed. We did not use the pool because it was too cold (it was Deceber after all) but the place was pretty nice to sit around anyway.

    Well, a locker creaked a bit, therefore 9/10.

    Great location - quiet and peaceful place, close to the bus stop, and when you have breakfast, you can watch the sea and the city. Very friendly staff. Particular attention is paid to cleanliness and organization. Wide bed. The staff helped guide the itinerary. Cleanliness is just perfect. Attention is given even to trifles.
