1. All the staffs I met were helpful and friendly 2. Location was great ( from Airport Terminal 1, take metro, cost 2€, time about 30mins, change line one time) big bags wouldn’t be convenient to drag around the neighboring area 3. Room was clean but smell is a bit awful 4. Price is good but you won’t sleep unless you are extremely exhausted 5. Kitchen - you can make your own coffee and cook and they have fridge as well 6. The space in The room was good compared to some hostels 7. Breakfast was not best but okay for me

Best location for party people or if u want to be close to everything. Hostel meets expectations , stuff is great and we had great time. We appreciate the fact that we could leave our luggage in hostel aftet check out almost whole day, because we left from Lisbon at midnight.

Fantastic location — a 2 minute walk to Cameos Square and only about 15/20 to the heart of Lisbon. Also, only about a 5 min walk to the river/bay! Staff were beautiful and helpful Breakfast and “lounge” area were cute and it felt like a little home. Kitchen — breakfast was good - toast & spreads, juice and cereals available. You can use the fridge, microwave and stove to cook! Room — I stayed in a 4-bed, 2x bunk beds but good amount of space in the room.

I only stayed for one night and felt very welcome. Located ideally for explorations of the historical city centre, Alface Hostel offers everything you need. The breakfast offers toast, jam, cereals, and of course juice, milk, tea, and coffee. Be aware that you have to take stairs! Maybe for sensitive people the noises of the nightlife could also be irritating, but for me it was very fine. Most visitors will probably be tired after a long day in lovely Lisbon, anyways :) The best part was the super friendly staff who told me about amazing places to see and food to eat. They were very warm and thoughtful in making me feel welcome to their city. I will be back! Greetings to Antonio :)

Noise - in the heart of all the pubs/bars, live music is playing until 5am! Plus squeaky metal beds (nothing compared to the outside noise!). I bought earplugs and it did the trick, but my first night was torture!!! Bathrooms — clean for sure, but tiny showers!! I always got up early (about 7) and showered and no one was there so I could get changed without worrying too much.

I didn’t realise the hostel was in bairro alto or I wouldn’t have booked there, there is a lot of noise coming from the street both from people and loud music from the bars surrounding the hostel. In the morning I heard the garbage truck as if it was inside the room 😕Perhaps the bed linens should be updated they looked very old and honestly didn’t look very clean.
The bathroom was very clean.

where it was located was just amazing for the nightlife. the kitchen and common areas are also really cool. Staff was always there to help;

1. WiFi is extremely slow some time (when I tried to change my ticket and the staff offered me to use their computer :)) 2. Beds are made of steel, so it’s noisy whenever someone moves 3. Worst Noise from street whole night: I saw about it in reviews but I said how bad can it be, but the whole night, you can hear very loud shouting and sometimes I hear a lady crying and a guy shouting till morning, I couldn’t imagine to hear for one more night , so I even checked out one night earlier 4. Kitchen is super small, I was about to eat and a group of teenagers came and no more space, so I ate standing 5. The toilet stalls and shower stalls were pretty small , and no door in showers but only curtains
