  Great location, clean and affordable.

  This hostel is clean, very well located and the staff are amazing. I chose this location as I was working and did not want to pay a massive amount for accommodation. The first night I had a room with a bathroom, I meant to book two nights. So since the hotel was completely booked the receptionist rented me a double bunk bed on the other side of a wall which did provide some privacy. I was very thankful. The breakfast is good and affordable.

  Being hostel Porto Portugal

  25 Sept 2024

  This hostel is very clean and extremely secure. The staff are all friendly and very helpful. It is centrally located and this part of the city is easy to navigate. They provide a terrific breakfast for a small fee. They also provide laundry services again for a small fee. A terrific place to stay in Porto.

  Five excellent night’s sleep in a hostel with a great location

  07 Dec 2023

  The hostel is close to the main sites, easy to find, easy to access via a key card and its location felt safe to walk around day and night. The staff answered my questions and were welcoming. My 4 bed female dorm, the bathroom and common areas were clean. The optional breakfast, started from 7.30am and cost 4 euros. We could help ourselves to it and it was plentiful, nutritious, varied, delicious and great value for money. The bed was a bit pricier than beds in most hostel dorm rooms in Porto but it was perfect for my type of trip and I'm happy I paid a few euros extra for a quality stay.I would especially recommend the hostel to solo female travellers, because it is one of the few hostels in Porto with 4 bed female dorms. I would recommend it to newcomers to Porto because it is easy to find from Sao Bento train station. I wouldn't recommend this hostel to people whose main aim is to meet lots of fellow travellers because the common areas didn't have lots of music and social vibe in November [low season], and there weren't any organised events such as bar crawls which there are in some of the more traditional hostels. This hostel had a more 'guesthouse' style and feel to it, at least when I visited in November anyway.

  Good inexpensive option in Porto

  02 Oct 2022

  For a hostel, this was an exceptional experience. Our room on the top floor, although a workout to get to, had beautiful views over the river and Gaia. Thankfully it was cool when we went and a fan was provided, the lack of air conditioning could be a challenge in summer. Breakfast was adequate for a hostel breakfast. Location is perfect, a relatively short walk from Sao Bento station even with luggage. Would stay again. Staff were mostly friendly, but Tiago was great!
