Unfortunately the mattress was not comfortable, it was the only thing which stopped me rating a 10. Wasn't horrible but wasn't good. It's the 2nd time I've been here.

Fabulous location with panoramic windows, quiet, mtn views. Very good breakfast,him cheese, cereals, coffee, milk, fruit. Very friendly and helpful staff, incredible value

- Very unfriendly person in the 5pm shift (a woman with a french accent), totally opposite of the girl that was in the reception before that shift. - Only being able to check-in at 5pm. - No place to wash your clothes, nor a place to hang clothes for it to dry - A little bit far from the nearest place to eat (nearly 1km)

- Great surroundings - Good breakfast - Adequate price

We didn't need it but the room heating did not work.

Spectacular and peaceful location surrounded by nature and moutain views. It's so much more comfortable than the pictures suggest. Very helpful English speaking staff at checkin. Free secure parking. Delicious and plentiful selection at breakfast. Super room and comfortable mattress. Room was spotlessly clean. We will be back! Complimentary drinks in the lounging area.

The property is quite big and can host hundreds of guests. Surprisingly there's no kitchen for them (!). There's only a side table with a microwave in the lounge, a few cups, a kettle, a few plates and some cutleries. There's one fridge in the lounge for vending purposes (water, beer, soft drinks etc). You can ask the front desk to store your perishables in there, but it's kept padlocked, so every time you want to access your stuff you have to ask them to unlock it, which is a nuisance. If your stay is short (1, 2 days) it should be OK, but in my case (17 days in total) it was a critical issue, specially because the property is located in a remote area. The closest supermarket is 20km away through a narrow winding road. There are scarce options to eat in the close by village, specially in low season, which was my case. Still, if you choose to stay in a hostel it means you're on a shoestring, therefore you expect to have your own meals at the hostel in order to save up. I've stayed in countless hostels around the world for the last 3 decades and this is the first one I come across with no kitchen (!). The wi-fi connection is good in the lounge and living room. However, it worked erratically in the bedroom I stayed, which was located in a separate lodge away from the main building. There was no socket in the upper bunk bed. You'll want to recharge your mobile overnight while you're sleeping, so you better off asking to have a lower bunk bed. There were only 2 sockets in a bedroom for 4 guests (2 bunks).

Beautiful surroundings in the midst of pristine nature. Many tracks cross the area where the property is, so if you're up to hiking you can start straight away. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast included is a plus.

The lights in the shower go off automatically, which means that sometimes you might be left in dark while showering and the sensor is far enough so you need to get out and walk through the whole bathroom to get the lights back on.

The stay was great. The stuff was very helpful and even accommodated earlier breakfast to make sure I eat before an early bus. The location is remote however that add to the charm. There is a bus stop next to the camp if you need it!

Very functional hostel in a beautiful setting. The walls as always were thin enough to hear conversations and snoring in other rooms, but other than that I had no complaints and enjoyed my stay here.

Breakfast cafeteria was not equipped to handle the huge amount of young students/campers. They should have had a different space or a reserved time, as standard guests stood no chance against such a large group

Simple room, clean and straightforward, great price. Exactly what we were looking for

The room was a little cold.

The location is wonderful, you can just get on foot to the mountain and do some hiking.

There aren’t enough plugs in rooms for each bed. I have to ask a roommate to charge my phone

Location, bathrooms and all the facilities

While the icluded breakfest was a nice plus, there were no real food options to choose from

I would prefer to pay a bit more and have a locker in the room and some less worned out matress

The price was awesome and the location was perfect for some quiet and calm vacations

Poor soundproofing and it is difficult to reach shop or restaurant without car

Quiet location, comfortable, spacious and clean room, very helpful and friendly staff with fluent english, acceptable breakfast

definitely NOT sound proof

huge room and bathroom

The mattress was not very comfortable, because it has a plastic cover. The dorm rooms, are very small. The first night, all the other three fellas were making a lot of noise late at night, and later snoring so terrible, so that the whole room was vibrating. Which is not anything the hostel can do about, but maybe considering making some noise protection if the dorms are that small.

Nice breakfast. Helpful and carrying people working there! Cool views..

We went through a mountain road that was very scary. Our mistake. The fact that we could hear other guests as if we were all sharing the same room.

Wonderful view.

The room was a little badly lit, that's all.

The staff is incredibly accommodating, flexible, and helpful. They provided us with breakfast outside of breakfast hours since we had to leave so early. Love 'em.

the rooms are very moldy, you could smell it.

The breakfast was big and good

Nothing. This is the best place I stayed during my trip to Northern Portugal

The location is fantastic. It's very quiet and the views around are stunning. Perfect if you want to spend time in close contact with nature. The breakfast was great, the bed was comfortable. Everything was perfect

1. I was guided by the name of the hostel and I did not correctly understand where it is located. I arrived in the evening by bus to the Geres village and after that I had to walk for 3 hours through the mountains to the hostel. 2. I missed the kitchen where I can cook my own lunch or dinner.

1. The territory of the hostel is very pleasant. 2. Liked the breakfast. 3. At night the heating was turned on and it was warm. 4. The hostel is located very close to a very interesting ethnographic museum. 5. This is a convenient place to live and walk in the mountains.

The only issue there was is that the bed doesn't have any clothes. There is only 1 blanket and during the night, temperatures drop a lot and in my case, I slept uncomfortable with the cold. This is something easy to fix. Other than that, it was a good stay.

It has very good conditions and the relation between price and quality is above average.
