FranceVery nice hostel right on the Santa Maria street with all the great restaurants. Our room was nice and quiet (windows to the yard). I especially loved how super helpful was the staff - our luggage was lost at the airport so they kindly took it when we were not there and also helped us with buses around Madeira and we could even left our luggage there for 2 days while we were hiking in the mountains. Super nice! Thank you. In the end we booked another night there.

Czech RepublicCould not be better located. It is located on the MAIN street for cafes and restaurantes, night life, SUPER central. Meal are not included - it´s a HOSTEL. But, the hostel does have a restaurante that serves meals. The rooms (we reserved two) were super clean. The staff SUPER helpful. The owner (didn´t know he was the owner at the time) helped me find a boat to get to CALHAU DA LAPA. I had tried with no success, and he found on on the internet. Even called for me (This was to reserve during high season a boat ride for 6 people at 10 at night for the next morning). Worked out. Would not have had the oportunity to spend an AWESOME day with the family without his help that night.
