It's an excellent place to stay. The location is perfect, in a strategic spot for sightseeing and with easy access to transportation (buses and metro). A bus that goes directly to the airport even stops right on the corner. The facilities are clean and nice, and the staff is super friendly. The only downside is that it doesn't seem to have a good heating system, as it was very cold at night, and you have to use a lot of stairs with your suitcases; there's no elevator. Besides that, everything was nice.

That’s 100% a hostel where you pay for the vibe. It is the most social one I have ever encountered. Apart from the planned activities, the crowd is young and everyone wants to interact. We booked the private room with the shared bath- it must be said that the bath is only shared with one more room, so it is very private in this sense. Thanks for everything!!

The hostal looked good on the photos but in real it was even better. The ambiance was great as the personnel was very friendly and there was a cozy and home-like atmosphere. Everything would be cleaned regularly both the rooms and the common area (kitchen and livingroom). The bed was an absolutely delight: matrass 10/10, pillow 10/10 and sheets 10/10. And on top of all of this is the location between the hostal and pretty much any tourist sight!

I think this is one of the best hostels in Porto. It has space and comfort, friendly and dynamic staff, it is clean and centrally located. I checked in exhausted from a long journey, I really needed a comfortable bed and a little space to reorganise my things. I stayed in Porto for a few days and found a pleasant, warm and hospitable environment, very welcoming people and city. I liked all the places I stayed in, only one was poor, a hostel in a semi-central area run by an individual, I found it really bad there. The hostel keeper only showed up for check-ins and let guests loose in the building and the garden the rest of the time, which probably gratified some of them. The hostel however was not clean in my opinion, I only saw one cleaner working with great difficulty. Above all, furnishings, installations and objects were in my view gone and outdated. I was given a worn out bed and didn’t sleep a wink. I think anyone with an empty house near the centre of Porto can easily do better than that!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The location is 2 mins walk from the metro which provided cheap transport links to every tourist attraction we went to (as well as the airport). The room and bathroom were spotless and the air con was surprisingly quiet. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and accommodating - definitely the best hostel I have ever stayed in (felt more like a hotel!)

    The beds were comfy and bathrooms were really good, great facilities and very clean. It was also quiet so you could get a good night's sleep, seemed to be mainly an older crowd, people doing the Camino de Santiago rather than party, so that was a plus for me. All in all, great value for money, one of the best hostels I've stayed in for the budget range.

    One of the best hostels in Porto! Comfiest beds with curtains and you didn’t even feel the 10 people in the room because of the layout. Probably not best for solo travellers as meeting people is a bit difficult. The bathrooms were clean! The best thing was the slot machine downstairs for playing games and the live music at the bar! Nice staff, location is top

    Bunks were comfortable, private, easy to store items and had charging ports within the bunks. We never had to wait for a shower/toilet to be free as there was always enough. The hostel felt secure and safe with lockers with electronic locks to store personal items. Rooftop bar was incredible! Cheap drinks and live dj music was so much fun. Breakfast included was a nice addition to assist with saving for more important travel experiences.
