Reviews of Hostel Malti Budget

Nothing!

The room was like a ice room and i couldn’t sleep and got sick and not only me… a lot of people!!

The location was perfect, the staffs were kind, and the guests were so friendly too, it was like a family.

Our room was so old, the beds were old and ugly, the, the wall was falling apart, under the bed it was dirty. There is an A/C working all night and all we got was a duvet cover as a blanket and it was so cold that we got sick. (But at least it had A/C, it's better than a hot night.

The staff was really friendly to me. As far as I understood, the place is an old glory, which used to win awards in the past. Today it is cozy and deliciously decadent. Located in a residential neighborhood, at a seven-minute walk from the frenziness of Balluta Bay, it does its job of providing affordable lodging to unpretentious backpackers.

The place is small and in desperate need of renovation. The ground floor is a single room with a reception desk, couches and tv, and a shabby kitchen. The stairs convey voices to the bedrooms at the upper floors, but nobody really cares, not even at 3am. So, if you are a party animal, just go with the flow. If you are laying in bed, be sure to be a heavy sleeper, or have your earplugs ready. Earplugs worked for me.

The location and how clean it was

The stuff,they are not the best when it comes to welcoming visitors.i didn't feel like welcomed

Where to begin: 1. It is on a hill around nothing, every time you have to walk up from the beach and down again to get anywhere or shop 2. The bathroom is not clean and there is 1 for 2 rooms of 8 each. So 2 showers and 1 toilet for 16 people. 3. There seemed to be a man sleeping on the couch every night and I think he was just paying them under the table because he never went to a room, but we could not use the couch hang out area because he was always there sleeping 4. Don’t be fooled by the hot tub, it is rarely open or on and in summer they refuse to turn on heat, so it is a cold tub, which no one wants to use because it is cold 5. Limited reception hours and they are not very helpful 6. Marco Polo is their sister hostel and much better 7. They never change the door code and there is no secure luggage storage if you leave your bags, they just say put them on floor by door, but anyone with the code could come in and just take your stuff. They need a locked luggage storage or need to change the door code often 8. It just seemed like they didn’t care

The kitchen was ok and the roof is nice and the tours and bar at Marco Polo are nice.

Price is cheap for Malta I guess and can walk to st Juliens

Not in a great location, up the hill and nothing around, limited reception hours, a bit dirty, hot tub never really open. The sister hostel Marco Polo is nicer and has rooftop and a bar and organizes tours, but it is a 20 minute walk to that hostel

I thought the cleanliness and the people working there saved my review. The workers were very friendly

The place felt more like a prison, very dark. There were no lights in the bunk beds, a very cramped room for fourteen people, and only one air conditioner. The silence rules were not enforced; people were constantly coming in and out of the room, talking loudly, slamming the door, and turning on the lights. This happened several times during the early hours of the morning. Sir, if you are looking for rest, this is not the best place.

Comfy matrace, big locker, cozy space to eat & rest. Peace & quiet despite high season.

no complaints.

The room was rather spacious, quiet and clean, towels were fresh. The air conditioning was working, which was essential in the heat of July. Close to the Balluta Bay and within walking distance to both Sliema and centre of St. Julian's (15- 20 min).

I asked the receptionist if they could store my luggage till my checking in, but the way they seem to understand "storage at the reception", was to leave the baggage right there in front of the desk, where virtually anyone could snatch it entering from the street. Hence, I decided to place it myself under the seat beneath the window to make it less visible. I failed to check it beforehand, but the room should definitely have a small refrigerator, if not a TV screen as well. The beach is indeed like 5 min away, but you have to walk down a steep hill.
