After a hard day of touring around Malta, it was the perfect accomodation to relax with some AC turned on, a nice shower and get a goodnight sleep. I had a very pleasant stay and the staff were exceptionally nice!

Amazing stay at Inhawi! It is rare that I extend several times, but I did here. The location was close to the Bay, the bus stops and groceries and restaurants nearby. The location was close to the livelihood of St. Julian's and Paceville, but far enough away that it was peaceful to sleep. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The free breakfast every morning is the best I've ever had at a hostel and sets you up for a great day of exploring! Lots of common space to hang out, work, work and enjoy with other guests. Great storage system in the kitchen as well. This hostel was clean and felt like home quickly, would definitely recommend!

very friendly hotel staff, they help in everything, always maintain order and create a family atmosphere. Camillo, despite the finished shift, continued to provide us with help and support in opening the coconut, because we wanted to try it. I highly recommend this hostel
