    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

    Best hostel we have stayed in. Central garden & seating area was great particularly when we had a small room it made all the difference. Bedding changed everyday was excellent. Location was fantastic. Reception staff were v polite and helpful but perhaps improved training, didn't go out of their way to find out answers when didn't have info to hand. A welcome drink in price would have been nice. Not the cheapest hostel. We would come back.

    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.

    The hostel has a really cool bar/patio in the middle so the rooms all look onto it. I enjoyed that this was a restaurant open to the general public so it felt like you were mixing with locals not just backpackers. The staff were really friendly and the wine was cheap! Super affordable and a great location.
