The staff at the passenger was super friendly and helpful! They also organize daily activities to meet other travels. The upstairs of the hostel is a little hangout spot where everyone chats and vibes at night. Lots of young people who are super respectful and kind. Breakfast was good as well!

Teresa Philippines

They were so accommodating and it was such an amazing way to experience Porto! The whole place has this high-ceiling historic charm and overlooks the center or Porto. You can walk to everything you need and meet a ton of people on the top floor. The earplugs they provide were a must for us because it gets a little loud in the area, especially if FC Porto wins, but it was our favorite place we have ever stayed…they really made our honeymoon feel special.

Alex United States of America
