The nice infrastructure of the hostel, the friendly staff, the rooms are clean and the beds very comfortable

Chero Italy

It was so clean and lots of natural light. The staff were friendly and helpful. it wasn’t too far of a walk from the main attractions. felt more like a hotel than a hostel.

Bethany United States of America

The place is very nice, most people from the staff nice, they serve good food. The internet in my room wasn’t working, so they upgraded my room to one that had internet (I teach online, so I needed a working connection in a quiet space).

Mariana South Africa

The architecture is really nice. The staff is really nice and very good communicative. The bed was really comfortable and in general the room is very nice as well. I would definitely stay again here

Chero Italy

This place looks and feels like hotel, not hostel, and a good one. What you see on the pictures is exactly what you will see when you get there - intereting design ideas and facilities very well thought of. Staff is super friendly and breakfast was much better than what you could expect from a hostel.

Andrejs Latvia

This was my first stay in a shared Female dorm with 6 beds and it did not disappoint! The room was clean and comfortable. The layout of the beds provided privacy. Lockers in the bathroom were convenient to showering (2 very private showers just for this room. I loved the Big Table dinner on Tuesday nights. it was conducive to meeting other guests and we had a great time. The meal was delicious! Breakfast was good as well with lots of variety.

Stephanie United States of America

Great value and the cleanest and best hostel in Porto!
