Loved it. Very cosy, very friendly staff. They help you on so many levels: problems in the hostel, questions about Porto, tips to eat and drink, ... The room was really nice and the bathroom was comfy and big enough for 8 people. Everything was also very clean. The breakfast is simple, but good. And you have fruit, water, thee and coffee for free during the whole day.
Nothing ! Only 1 tip: the hostel is near the Douro. Which means: a climb to get to the city center. Overall it's 20 - 30 min walk to the main attractions or to visit Gaia. Not a problem at all for me, but keep this in mind !

It felt so much like home! The beds were comfy, and the view from the dorm was so, so beautiful. Super clean, felt secure. Free breakfast was better than most hostels I’ve stayed at in Porto. Met some really lovely people there who made my trip so wonderful, and I’ve only got this hostel to thank. Such a lovely vibe!
A slight walk from the centre of Porto, and common area didn’t often have enough space at breakfast to sit down and eat.

First of all I had wonderful time there and met so many cool people all around the world. Everything seemed clean / bathroom for each room / breakfast was good and enough. Altought the location might seem a bit far off the centre, its insanely cheap to get bolt all around Bilbao that it doesnt even matter. If you dont like spending for bolt, you get to the centre in 20 minutes by walking (nice riverside walk). With that, it was super quiet during the nights (if I count the street).
Since the bunk beds are a bit more of a cheap quality, everytime someone moves you feel it. But I feel like its just a problem in the guests and not in the hostel. If there would be something to change, it would be the beds to make them a bit tougher and a bit more accessable if you get a top bunk.

Location. Apartment is away from the touristic paths, so it’s not crowded. But still close to the old town. Walking distance. View to the river is beautiful. Comfy bed and big room with a little kitchen. We found a bottle of cold white wine in the fridge! What a lovely surprise! Friendly guys at the reception so as the owner! Thanks for the free beers and nice chat!
Balcony is facing to the road and also tram way, so it’s a bit noisy. Few minor things which were resolved by the staff right away.

Extremely friendly staff all around and wonderful hostel experience. I stayed in the female dorm, very comfy beds and fantastic private bathroom. Couldn’t stay until breakfast as I left early for the camino, but it’s included. The city is just a few steps up, and the river right in front :) Definitely recommend!!
That I stayed only one night and couldn’t explore more :)

Enjoyed stay in this somewhat central location: easy walk to old town. Nice facilities, and small kitchen and fridge available if you want to prepare a meal. Breakfast nice, with coffee. Enjoyed exploring Porto from here after we finished our Camino.
We were assigned two top bunks in dorm, and had to pay an extra 5Euro to move one to a lower bunk. Having one of us on the ground level was standard layout in all other stays we had, so this policy was a bit odd.

A lot of showers and toilets for the dorms, breakfast basic but good
The common space is really small, mostly for the breakfast. The kitchen is also small so it’s difficult to cook, mostly when many people want to cook at the same time. It is also not in the center of town but it is still easy to walk to there.

Liked the friendly and helpful staff. Also enjoyed the selection at breakfast. Enjoyed the company of my room mates as well. Rooms kept very clean. Very near bus stops to and from Porto.
Didn't like having to go home as this was a really chilled out place to stay.

The room, the beds, and the bathroom were clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great for a hostel. The location is nice, you can go for a walk by the river and easily walk to the center. Would stay here again!
