    The facilities are great but when the hostel is full it's not always easy to get to the bathroom. There is only 2 toilets for all women.

    Good little hostel and the staff are great. It's in a perfect location too.

    The mattress was pretty thin and it made it not for a super comfortable sleep. My hips were sore the next morning. The bathroom was a good size, showers cleaned however no ventilation. The doors to the rooms didn't have locks and they claimed it was okay because they had cameras. Which for the most part I felt safe but may have felt a tad bit more secure if they did lock. All in all it was a decent stay.

    The garden area was small but nice. The kitchen was fully equipped and looked out on to the garden. The guests were all friendly and respectful. They made quiet time 22h which is nice.

    The hostel wasn't welcoming, I felt like I was walking into a cave, the main areas were dark. Old building without the charm.

    The location was really good.

    The thin fan doors that semi close so ever but of light and noise is heard. I didn't mind as it was relatively quiet but would feel different if the hostel was full.

    Friendly staff, cosy small living area and garden. Close to bus station. Beautiful old building

    Not something I don't like but good for people to know: when you walk into the hostel, you have to walk two meters before the light goes on. The hostel itself starts at the second floor.

    I loved the garden! And because of how the living area and kitchen are set up, it's really easy to get in contact with other travelers. As I said, the garden is amazing, green and has shadow. I was staying in the 8beddorm which is huge, so more than enough space. Comfy beds and all of the staff are really friendly and welcoming The location is perfect, close to everything

    They asked my to pay extra money when I renovate for more days. I payed on booking and they asked more in reception. It was a mistake and they gave me back, but If my mother didn’t call them, they probably will keep the extra money.

    Locker in my room, lights in my bed to read at night, kitchen ok, clean bathroom.

    I did 2 bookings for my daughter, first just one night and after that 4 nights and they asked extra money for her because “I booked different rooms” but I did not. So I need to call them and ask for recheck. My daughter was alone and that was quite an embarrassing situation. I hope next time staff could be more efficient.

    I had everything that I needed.

    close to the city center and highway. Nelson and his staff were friendly and informative. parking was an adventure, but after understanding how it worked it became a funny game of musical chairs. I would stay there again and would recommend it to any other travelers.

    It was really cold. Warm blankets and the showers having hot water saved it, but god was it cold. Lockers are a little small.

    Helpful and friendly staff and other guests. Good location. Common areas are nice. Bathrooms and bedrooms definitely not fancy, but functional and not gross.

    The only areas for improvement is the beauty of the age of the building means the opening and closing of doors (latches on the doors) can be quite loud. & also the design and insulation of the building makes a 10 person dorm very hard to airate so it can get smelly/stuffy. note: Curtains only for bottom bunks, not too, so less privacy above.

    InBraga is in such a great location, so central yet feels secure and secluded. It's small size gave it a nice family atmosphere. People often hang out in the communal kitchen, dining and lounge space which makes for cool opportunities to chat and play some of the board games they have available. The staff were awesome. So helpful with how to navigate Braga and surrounding sights. Stephanie and Rafa were a great help and made me feel at home. Cool to have so many volunteers who are here to help too :) + the sunny patio out back. much needed in January/Febuary cold. Thanks Nelson and team.

    The most annoying part was that there was nowhere to keep your stuff dry and get dressed after a shower. Was also missing a comfy chill out area. Since it was raining we couldn't use the garden and so all we had was the big table and the few benches in the kitchen.

    Highlight was definitely the staff!! The guy in the early shifts was just amazing. So friendly, helpful and always smiling! Thank you so much🙌 Kitchen was well equipped and good, beds were comfy and everything was clean.

    I would have liked more space to leave my things while taking a shower, also maybe some space to hang clothes in the room (for example my jacket).

    The staff was really nice, the space clean and the beds were really comfortable.

    Rooms were a bit stuffy at night, hostal was busy, room full but bed was comfortable.

    Staff were very kind and friendly, let me check in late. Great location close to bars, restaurants, bus station 1 km. Nice common areas. Hot water good, room and bathroom clean. Most importantly it was quiet at night

    Maybe you won't find the beds very comfortable if you're tall

    It's conveniently located. You can reach it walking from the bus station and you have the bus stop to the Bom Jesus sanctuary right next to the hostel. The staff was nice and willing to help.
