    Nice
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Bed in 8-Bed Female Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The top bunks don't have curtains, it's a bit of a walk to the city center but it's a nice walk.

    The room is quite big, there is a lot of beds but there is a big locker for every person staying so the bags aren't in the way, the bottom bunk beds have curtains (the top ones don't) and the toilet was OK because there were very few people staying when I was there, but I don't know if 10 people were staying at the same time it would have been as convenient. Easy to get to from the airport.

    Only a small thing. The bathroom was a shared bathroom with the dorms next door which was fine except people kept forgetting to unlock the door so we could never use the bathroom

    Private room was very comfortable and the kitchen was great!

    Only one bathroom for the womans dorm and its shared with private room. There was a rush near check out time. I booked a mixed room to be with my friend but they automatically changed me to a female dorm without asking… and did not offer to change me back to mixed. They should ask if this is ok before changing me.

    Great kitchen and courtyard with tables. Very comfortable. Good beds - lower bed has curtains.

    Friendly atmosphere, clean and quiet
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Double Room with Shared Toilet
    • Stayed 4 nights

    The shared bathroom can be noisy in the mornings (the lock makes a lot of noise – by some guests who are more rough or inconsiderately loud people).

    Nice bed, cozy private room, friendly receptionists, very clean. Kitchen and shared areas are great, well stocked with cooking / eating equipment, and communal. Walking distance to anywhere in Porto and near a metro. Tucked away at a more quiet district with more local vibes. Near plenty of cafes and restaurants.

    No fault of the establishment but there is always a risk with sharing a room and one bathroom with up to seven other people, in our case a drunk northerner who fell asleep in the bathroom for a few hours after singing at the top of his voice and then when he eventually woke took a shower then proceeded to put on another guests jacket and then tried to take the backpack of my friend who was still asleep (how I will never know!), luckily there was no real intent to steal, only an addled brain!

    Cheap and good value, comfortable bed and clean, helpful staff at check in, touch pad key cards that makes entry simple An excellent cafe a few doors away that serve good food until late. Also fairly close to Campanha station.

    The wifi wasn't working in the room, so I had to use my data (wifi is good only in the common area) There was only 1 bathroom for 8 people in one room

    It's really close to center (15-20 mins walk), and some shops around The hostel is really clean, good kitchen, there is a fridge to put your stuff. You have TV in the common area. There is a clothes rack on the balcony to dry your towel, clothes.

    Hostel is great, nice kitchen and bathroom. Cute garden. Staff is nice and straight forward. Only things is it can get really hot so you have to keep windows open, but if they’re open the sun shines in the room really early which can wake you up. And the wifi only works well inside downstairs

    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Single Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room

    - Dorm beds do not have any privacy curtain for the top bunk bed - If bathroom was busy for the dorm, then need to go downstairs to use a toilet (without shower). This was not a big deal.

    + Comfortable bed and pillow in dorm + Private locker was provided + Bathroom and toilet were clean, with good water pressure + Location is great because it is about 250-metres away from the "24 de Agosto" metro, from where you can go directly to Porto Airport + Kitchen facilities are adequate, clean and full of utensils + Dining space can be a good place to meet travelers

    Nothing in particular.

    Room was for 8 people, it had a door to divide it so you did not hear 7 people but 4. In addition, my ' part' of my room did not have the door of the bathroom so i was even quieter.

    No air conditioning. Throughout the building it smelled a bit weird. I wish the upper bunk bed had a curtain like the lower one. Also, the socket was a bit far, I could hardly reach to charge my phone. I heard they provide extension cords for a deposit but if you’re self checking in after 9pm, there’s nobody that can help you with anything. Basically, from 9pm to 9am it’s DIY.

    The hostel location was fine. The bathroom had all the facilities.

    roughly good, but charging spots are inconvenient
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Bed in 8-Bed Female Dormitory Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The place of the charging plug for the upper beds can be improved with the extending code or some ways. The plugs are only placed in the bottom of the wall so people on the upper beds can't keep their smartphones or cameras charged while sleeping because someone may steal them owing to their locations. On the other hand, people on the beds below can keep becase their beds have curtains and the charging spots are so close to put their phones inside the curtains. It seemed unfair and uncomfortable for people on the upper beds. Besides, the number of the shower and toilet are limited comparison to the capacity.

    The location was good and the staff were kind.
