    I appreciate clear instructions to enter the building and the room. The address is easy to find on the Google maps. Everything is very clean - the bed, the shower, the common space. The support team answers all the questions immediately in the WhatsApp.

    Room would benefit from additional furnishing

    This hostel is beautiful. The owner explained that it was originally his grandparents house and that it was totally refurbished as a hostel. It was done in excellent taste. Very modern and spotlessly clean. Bright, spacious and comfortable kitchen and seating area offers a lovely space to meet fellow travellers. Staff were most pleasant and helpful. Great location. Would highly recommend.

    Not that it bothered me, but there is no TV or fridge in the room, but there is in the common room and the kitchen.

    Very modern, super spacious rooms, with neutral and minimalistic decoration. Overall, a well renovated building, right in the city centre of Ponta Delgada. The terrace on the 5th floor offers great views over the city. The location is excellent, and there's free parking right nearby, and if full, the alternative is a couple hundred meters away. Breakfast was nice with some regional produce.

    Best hostel I've ever been to. João and André were truly exceptional, always making sure I had everything I needed. The place is perfectly located, right in the center of Ponta Delgada. The rooftop balcony is amazing, and the common areas are great, with attention to every detail. The room was really tidy and in excellent condition. Even the breakfast was really good. Amazing value for money. I cannot recommend this hostel enough.

    electric kettle was missing in the kitchen or rooms. It would be great to be able to drink some tea in late afternoon. In the room you could also add some small wooden shelf where you can open travel bags. Now it has to be done either on the floor or on the bed. It would be a shame to damage them.

    We were able to check in early and also after check out the host allowed us to store our bags and use the common areas. A good breakfast was served. The room we had was spacious with a nice balcony and good-sized bathroom with shower and clean towels. The bed is super comfy with nice sheets. Air-conditioning works well. Even though the building is located in the city centre right in front of the main street the widows are sound proof and we had a good nice sleep.

    Special place. Very cosy, new, clean, modern. Nice terrace on the top with the view over the city, you can use provided mattresses and chill there for a while. Hosts are extremely nice. You have a possibility to rent a bicycle, the hosts just pick it up for you from the nearby rental company. I needed a bicycle for the Sunday when all the companies are closed, but Joao just picked it up for me on Saturday and the bicycle waited for me in the hostel building from Sunday morning, and after I finished a delicious breakfast I could just go for a ride! Joao and Andre, thank you once again for your kindness, you've been really nice hosts!

    Our stay at Sky PDL exceeded our expectations. We stayed in the private loft room which had a gorgeous view of the city and was next door to the terrace that had an extraordinary view of the ocean. Andre was incredibly helpful, attentive, and knowledgeable about the history of the Azores and local activities that catered to our interests. The included breakfast was also extensive for a hostel and was very convenient and appreciated. My partner and I have traveled extensively and stayed in various types of hostels but the facility and the staff at Sky PDL were the best by far. We highly recommend this hostel to any friends, family, or fellow travelers!

    This has nothing to do with the hostel, just for anyone renting a car, be aware there is limited free parking in the area, & it can be challenging to find a spot.

    Great staff, very helpful and accommodating, the hostel is brand new, very clean, & great atmosphere, beautiful views from the terrace. Shout out to the staff for their hospitality.

    Everything was great, but maybe more hanging space for towels in the rooms. And a way to organise the fridge when it will be the full season :)

    The whole building is beautiful. The open kitchen is great, makes you want to spend time there. Lots of area outside but I was very windy when I was there. In the summer time I would have like to eat outside and just enjoy the view on the balcony. The high ceilings, the elevator, there is even a dishwasher in the kitchen ! Joao and Andre were present and available to answer our questions, our needs and give advices on what to visit in the area. They even packed a « to-go » breakfast for me as I had and early flight 🙏

    A mini fridge in the room was the only thing I felt we missed, and that's NBD.

    The room was great, the bunk beds worked well for our kids. The breakfast was fantastic, rolls, local cheeses, good coffee. The guy running the place was super friendly, and they let us store our bags the day we left. For the price, this was one of the best places I've ever stayed.

    The room was bright and clean, the bathroom was fabulous, and both were super spacious! The location is perfect, right in the centre of town. Loved the upstairs terrace perfect for a pre-dinner drink, and the patio for breakfast outside. The fact that this was the owner's grandmother's house, that he has refurbished impecably well just adds to the charm of it. Owner and staff are really friendly and helpful. We had a 4am wake up for an early flight and they left us out some breakfast to take with us. All on all, a superior experience and amazing valie for money! Highly recommend it!
