    Centrally located easy to navigate Porto from here. Exceptionally clean and very focussed on security. They had a great continental breakfast for 5 euros per person an exceptional value and had endless cups of coffee. The staff were very helpful all in all you can’t go wrong staying here. They even provide laundry service for a small fee. They have thought of everything.

    Everything was great.

    The rooms were cozy and clean and perfect for our stay. The staff was helpful and friendly. The breakfast (5 Euros) was delicious. The hostel was located near the metro station and in the heart of the historic center. It was near the Cathedral where we started our Camino, and had luggage storage available to guests. We plan on staying at Being Porto again.

    No vegan margarine. No vegan options to egg, bacon, cheese. May consider a tofu scramble for those not eating eggs.

    Historic building. Lovely furnishings. Comfortable bed with sliding curtain. Breakfast was great. Lots of choices and fresh sqeezed juice. Able to arrange trips from the hostel.

    The space isn’t conducive to meeting people. Would be nice if they had some organized activities for solo travelers. Bathrooms were clean but smelled strongly of mold and you had to wait at times because there is one bathroom per set of rooms.

    Great location, right in the heart of the city. Clean rooms, bathrooms, and kitchen. Comfy beds and pillows. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful.

    The room wasn’t very big but for a couple of nights is totally fine. Unfortunately you could hear the other guests that were next to our room talking, showering etc. and also noises from the entire building.

    The location is very good as the hostel is next to the city center. The breakfast was nice and packed also with healthy options. The staff was very friendly and professional. In general it was clean and the kitchen always tidy.

    The cleaningscent from the bed sheet is a bit too strong for my noise so causing a bit allergy at night :D

    location is excellent, even it's very close to street and resteruants, the sound-proof window did offer a great help to keep the noise away.

    No elevator! If you're on the 4th floor, be prepared. Also, the place is very noisy. Walls seem to be made of paper. All rooms are directly adjacent to the stairs and most people slam the doors when entering or leaving. Ear plugs are mandatory if you want to sleep.

    Nice place, friendly staff, very close to old town. Good breakfast, clean room.

    Stairs got a little rough! But still worth the view!

    Just loved the ambiance , staff and being so close to old town. Breakfast was wonderful and reasonable. Loved having a balcony and a view. The private room was great! The private bunk room was wonderful from what we normally have. Thank you!

    Not very social hostel as people there is nowhere to hang out. It’s more a hotel vibe. The bathrooms were not the best

    Had a hotel vibe to it, great beds and very comfy. Central location
