Location, view, and our host Paolo! Paolo made us feel so comfortable during our stay He is super friendly and takes the time to explain all the details, things to do, places to visit, great wine tips and a round of free port wine for our check in! :) The appartement we booked was clean, cozy and fully equipped. Bathroom is beautiful!! So is the view on the river Free parking in front of the hostel (which is very important to have in Porto) A lovely 10min walk will get you in the center of the city We couldn't ask for a better location! We defenitly recommended this place Thanks Paolo for making us feel at home :)
LebanonExceptional greeting upon arrival. Paul was kind and so helpful. The place is clean, updated and a great value. One if my favorite hostels to date. Stay here if you are in Porto. Coffee complimentary all day and a nice breakfast.
United States of AmericaThe property was clean, fresh looking interior. The staff was very friendly and helpful in suggesting where to go,where to eat, and how best to get around. We were also early for check-in so they kept our bags until time and also kept them after check out as our flight didn’t leave until evening.
United States of AmericaThe place is at a walk distance to the down town, my bed was at a good corner. Staff was friendly.
Hong KongWhen I arrived at the property it was earlier than check-in and they were happy to storage my luggage so I can go out and start enjoying the city. The beds were comfortable, the showers were big and clean. Did I say breakfast Included? That was a big plus. And another thing that got me super happy, very well located. It's walking distance to the center of the city and it's a quiet location at night.
United States of AmericaNice sunset view to Douro River. Quite easy to reach even from the airport by bus (only one bus, no need to change) even tho there’s a huuge way down (if you know porto you know what I mean), but easy to reach to the Sao Bento metro station either walking or taking a bus right in front of the hostel. Nice breakfast, nice staff. +-10 mins to the bridge
BrazilKind staff, willing to help, accommodating... We wanted to book a tour around the city but didn´t have to, Paulo told us everything and more than we needed to enjoy the city. Thank you once again, Paulo and Anna!
Czech RepublicPaulo, the owner was very nice and helpful. He gave us maps and showed every route to the beach, town. Even he gave us tips on where to eat. The rooms were super clean and comfortable. The atmosphere was awesome. We spent 2 days there. I wish I had stayed more. I will return to Porto. I recommenf this hostel and the city.
HungaryAs I was travelling for business I really appreciated the location (3 minutes from the congress centre) but also the view, stuff, facilities... overall I and my colleagues were excited.
Czech RepublicStaff were friendly and welcoming. They were very accommodating when I required to leave my bags at the hostel for the day. The room was very comfortable. The bathroom was spotless. The size of the room was very good. I'm used to very cramped hostels so I was pleasantly surprised with how big it was.
