Personnel absent, accueil souvent" close". Belle demeure mais peu chaleureuse. Atmosphère auberge de jeunesse n'existe pas,en comparaison à d'autres HOSTELS où il y a de l'animation, de la vie.

The atmosphere of the hostel of youth does not exist,in comparison to other HOSTELS where there is animation, of life. we are disappointed during our stay in Portugal we have frequented three hostels the other two are particularly friendly. thank you for taking into account our observations, there is certainly the cleanliness, the setting but there is the welcome that seems important to us even if your system wants to make savings

The location is convenient to most touristic sites as well as São Bento station but street noise in the rooms is quite loud at night…and closing the windows and wooden shutters made the room very warm. The staff is friendly but only there in the mornings. They have notices that water and beer plus other things are available but there is no way to purchase anything after 1. Bathrooms are clean, good size towels but they rely on guests to wash their dishes..most with cold water.

Hostel correct bien situé, très joli et propre mais le personnel n’est pas très avenant. Pas de déjeuner inclus tel que mentionné sur le site, peu flexible.

Great stay just around the corner from one of the citycenters of porto. Easy to get to with public transport and a but of a maze to get to with the car (in the end we parked a few streets over). Easy to get into, even after hours. The desk is only manned in the morning, but all the info is online or in the room. The only downside is that the room door changed from a cardreader to a normal lock and we didn't realise that you had to physically lock the door, so someone barged in during the night.

Room with en-suite: very clean and comfortable, easy to access. Room with shared bathroom: good size room with balcony. Good views of the city from the top floor. Lots of stairs to climb. Shared bathroom clean but paper towel dispenser was not working. Used towels provided. Breakfast room was cozy.

This was hands down the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Super clean. Super safe. The staff we’re very friendly and helpful. I stayed in a queen size private room- that also had its own private bathroom. It was as nice as staying at a hotel. They even made the bed and cleaned up after my first night. You really couldn’t ask for more for only ~$50 a night.
