I stayed at Vallettastay Dormitory for four nights, and while the location is fantastic, being close to the center of Valletta, there were several issues impacting my experience. The facilities were quite basic, with some bathrooms in need of maintenance and a lack of proper amenities like recycling bins. Overall, I found my stay to be a mixed bag.

I found the hostel to be well-located right in the heart of Valletta, which was a definite plus. but the experience itself was riddled with issues. The lack of a front desk gave a cold feel to the place, and the atmosphere seemed minimal with not much social interaction. Additionally, I faced problems with the facilities and power outages, which made my stay less than pleasant.

There wasn't much to say about dining since the kitchen was poorly equipped. just a couple of pots and one frying pan available.

Facilities

Facilities were lacking. No proper lockers near the beds, showers were downstairs, and I encountered power cuts and cleanliness issues in the bathrooms.

I stayed for two nights at the Vallettastay Dormitory Shared Hostel and found it had a convenient location close to major Valletta sights and the central bus station. However, I encountered several issues, such as a lack of proper cleaning and uncomfortable sleeping arrangements due to noise from street traffic. While the price was fair, the overall experience left much to be desired. 🌆😕

The mixed dormitory arrangement felt a bit intimidating, especially since I was the only female. Sleeping next to male occupants was uncomfortable, and the traffic noise made it hard to rest. The cleanliness of the bathrooms was also lacking.

Service

Staff response was unhelpful when I reported issues such as smoking in the room and power outages. Their communication made me feel like my concerns weren't urgent, which was frustrating.

I recently stayed at Vallettastay Dormitory Shared Hostel for two nights, and it was a mixed experience. The location is fantastic, and I appreciated the self-service check-in. However, I faced issues like lack of air conditioning, noise from the street, and somewhat unclean facilities. Overall, I rate it a 7.0.

The Bunk Bed in the Mixed Dormitory Room was functional, but the lack of separation between floors meant disturbances from others. Plus, the main light couldn't be turned off properly, which made it hard to sleep.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at Vallettastay Dormitory. The location was excellent, just a short walk from the main attractions, but the cleanliness issues in the bathrooms and kitchen were concerning. Additionally, I felt a bit awkward when an employee asked about my plans for the next few days. Overall, it was a decent stay but could have been improved with better maintenance.
