  Description

  Aaron, a Yoga teacher, and Superhost has been accommodating travellers on various reputable sites for a few years, moreover, he has an impeccable track record and will be handling the day to day operations to accommodate every individual need. Dean has a Catering and IT background and will be working behind the scenes to ensure smooth facilitating of all operations. Julia, also a Yoga teacher and an essential part of the family, has been managing the hostel since 2016. She helps in all aspects of the daily running of the hostel and takes care of the Workawayers. Together we form a great team and hope to give the guests the best service possible.
  
  We are a small team and believe in life values. We treat ourselves and the people around us with respect and are always there to help. We are looking for like-minded people to help our team and experience the beautiful hostel life.
  
  Our hostel is located in Sliema, one of the most popular tourist destinations on the idyllic Maltese islands. The Hostel is located in a village core on a very peaceful street. It's a five-minute walk from the beach in the beautifully situated Sliema promenade. It's also within walking distance from one of the top shopping destinations in Malta, while also being surrounded by great hot spots, bars, and restaurants, the bus stops and ferries to our capital city Valletta are also a stone's throw away.
