The location is perfect and the host was very friendly. The beds are fine and the bathroom was clean. We were earlier at the destination (by bus), but the host was very nice to let us in earlier.

Cheryll Netherlands

Great location in heart of the city. Staff was wonderful and friendly. Rooms were clean, bathrooms were modern.

Alexandra Australia

The hostel is located directly on the riverside and central in the city. We had a comfortable room for two. Everything was clean and the interior design is unique Would absolutely recommend it!

Alexander Germany

Clean, spacious two-persons room (which was actually a 8p dorm just for the 2 of us)

Stephanie Netherlands

The double room with a queen size bed was basic but very nicely decorated with a traditional feel with the tiled wall and dark wood floor. The view of the river was fantastic.

Vanessa Germany

the hostel is nice and clean the room had enough space nice and comfy beds everything is close

Michaela Slovakia

The location was great, the tiles on the wall are beautiful and traditionally Portugese. The hostel is quite cheap.

Magda Austria

The position, the spaces and the cleaness is very good.

Mauriziocalabrese Italy

So clean, enough space, easy check in and check out.

Melissa Mexico

This was the second time I've stayed at the hostel. The place has a good view over the river (from the rooftop terrace). Also its near the train and bus station and a supermarket. The whole place is quite clean too. The showers have a lockable door in front which gives extra privacy and space to change clothes.
