Amazing location & safety

Nice host! The location is perfect ! And safety
Carlos, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

What a fabulous location, bang in the centre of Porto. At £27 per night it was incredible value. Dormitories are not to everyone's taste but careful layout of bunks and privacy curtains make the experience more than pleasant. After 12 nights on the Camino de Santiago, this was just another routine sleep.

8/10 Very good

방이 넓고 환기가 잘 되어서 캐리어를 편안하게 펴고 수건을 말리기 좋았다 침구도 편하고 프라이버시 보호도 잘 되고 방안에 있지만 분리된 문이 있는 욕실과 화장실도 좋았다 다만 히베리아거리 바로 옆에서 들리는 모든 소음을 막지 못한다

Muito satisfeita!

Excelente estadia. Os quartos e banheiros são amplos e limpos. As roupas decamas são limpas e confortáveis. Ar condicionado funxiona muito bem Café da minhã é excelente. O espaço de convivência é amplo e agradável.

10/10 Exceptional

Hostel excelente, superou as minhas expectativas. Cama confortável, limpo, espaçoso e silencioso, apesar de ser hostel. Café da manhã farto e saboroso. Únicos pontos negativos: barulho dos carros e motos à noite na rua e o banheiro quando alguém tomava banho molhava todo o banheiro, pois não retia apenas na parte de tomar banho.
Daiane, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Super bem localizado e aconchegante, bom café

Local super bem localizado, em frente ao rio Douro com varios restaurantes, bares ao lado. Local limpo e apesar de ser um albergue moderno, tinha otimo cafe da manhã, funcionarios muito simpaticos e limpeza diária. Gostamos do nosso quarto, pegamos um individual para casal. Quarto espaçoso, como melhorias deveriam colocar um frigobar no quarto, Compramos agua e nao tinha como deixar gelada e mais tomadas no quarto, alem de um espelho grande fora do banheiro. Para mulher era dificil se arrumar pois o espelho fora do quaryo era pequena. imulinação tb poderia ser melhor, achamos o quarto com iluminação ruim e poucas tomadas, poderia ter mais. Mas foi otimo!

Excelente opção no Porto!

Localização ótima, perto do rio e de frente para Vila Nova de Gaia. Dá para ir andando para quase todas as principais atrações da cidade. Hostel moderno, com excelente infraestrutura e super limpo. Vale a estadia, seja ela curta ou longa!

石造りの、歴史がありそうなかっこいい建物です。 唯一不便だったのは、二段ベッドの上でしたがハシゴがなく登りにくかったです。 部屋はバスルームふくめ清潔で問題ありませんでした。特筆すべきは料金に含まれるビュッフェの朝食で、フレッシュな野菜や果物がたくさん用意されていて気分があがりました！

Amazing place. Staff super kind and helpful, rooms are clean and spacious. Breakfast was delicious. Perfect location near the river. Would come stay here again.
David, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Awkward sink arrangement but great otherwise.

I really loved the location and comfort of the hostel but the design is difficult and inconvenient in that the sinks are in the actual sleeping area. That makes it impossible to brush your teeth and shave etc in the morning because you feel very self-conscious about the noise you are making for late sleepers. Other than that, it was a lovely place, but that one thing may keep me from returning when I come back to Porto. I did go to the lobby and use that restroom to brush my teeth and shave.
