Directions
| Bus: | On reaching Gozo, you either board a bus and exit after the 2nd stop or otherwise walk uphill for approx. 10 mins. The nearest bus stop is only 50 m outside the gate.

| Parking: | Who might come along with private or hired car, would find ample space where to park, free of charge. The hostel has enough parking area for 15-20 cars. Safety is guaranteed. |
| Sea port: | Imgarr harbour (the port on reaching Gozo) is situated on the southeast end of the island and Ghajnsielem village (where St. Joseph Home Hostel is) is the first locality reached on the left going up the road. |
| Location: | St. Joseph Home Hostel is just behind the round traffic island on top of the road, after the first and only turn to the left. Just within a few minutes' reach from the ferry, St. Joseph Home Hostel is located on the main road leading to Victoria. |

| Rita and the other staff are very friendly. The old building and its history is very unique and the location on the hilltop is wonderful. I loved spending time on the terrace looking out to the sea, and at night, stargazing. I stayed a third night. | ||
