One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. Clean rooms with bathroom inside. Free breakfast every morning. Lots of food. Super close to the river and a short walk to all of the cathedrals. Will be booking their other locations when I travel to Barcelona and Lisbon.

I don‘t like that you have to pay extra for luggage storage. Usually this can be expected for free at a hostle

Nice area. The nightlife in Porto seems a bit too chill. Didn't try the pubcrawl as there weren't many people. Porto surprised me because of the cold. Very pretty city but disappointed as there wasn't much to do besides drink and eat.

It is very well located, with a delicious and varied breakfast included, and the staff are very friendly. I had the opportunity to chat with Victor and he was very attentive and helpful. When I asked to change my bed because I felt that the mattress had a bad smell, they allowed me to do so. The curtains on the beds allow for privacy. I would only suggest checking the humidity in the bathrooms, and unfortunately, even though the bathroom was cleaned every day, guests quickly make it dirty again.

Great location and reception (packed me to go breakfast, let me check in early), comfy beds (curtains). Employees advertised bar crawls/tours, so it can be social but don’t expect that (read the other reviews). Had to pay for earplugs and wait in line to shower. Other guests: be mindful of late night/early morning use of bed lights with open curtains that light up the room (you have a phone torch or can close the curtains) and making noise (no hairdryers at 2am!) since you share the space.

Good hostel. Breakfast was nice and beds were comfortable and private. Not the most social if that’s what you’re looking for. Great location for the river but an uphill walk to most other things.

Einige der Schließfächer sind defekt, uns wurden aber auf Wunsch direkt neue Betten zugeteilt. Die Betten sind gemütlich, die Schließfächer sehr groß und das Frühstück in Ordnung.

This is a great location in the heart of Ribiera Porto. We had a 10 bed mixed dorm that was supposed to have two bathrooms within the dorm. Only one was working. This would’ve been good for us to know in the beginning but the staff didn’t seem to care much about this. One bathroom for 10 people was difficult and dirty. The sinks are out in the open and a bit awkward. The floors and beds are creaky and loud. Breakfast is great, the bar is great, the place is super cute and big. Decent s...

It was ok, the location is pretty because you are right by the water. Check in takes awhile, a long line when I arrived. The room was narrow but decent, the bed was comfortable. I enjoyed the breakfast it was one of the best I have had at a hostel. Decent stay
