Overall I loved my stay...

Liked: Loved our two night stay here. Location was great. Lots of great entertainment close by. Staff were amazing. So friendly and helpful. They really went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. The facilities are amazing. We were there during the 10 hour power outage and the staff remained friendly during a difficult situation.
Disliked: In our shared bunk bed room. 13 ladies. I found there was little privacy as the small curtain on one side of the bunk bed didn’t give me any privacy. I tried hanging a towel on the other side but no joy. Next time I’ll take a large sarong to drape over the top end of the bed, which will help cut out light from other guests bed lamps. But honestly this place is amazing. Great value.

Great location and views! Staff...

Liked: Overlooking Porto’s River and city, near lots of restaurants. I only had 10 hours in Porto and wanted to be in a central location to make the most of it. Not only is it central, but the views from the common area are amazing. The hostel is beautifully designed, even the 14 bed rooms felt spacious and comfortable. I also couldn’t stay for the free breakfast, but they were so kind they packed it for me to take out. Highly recommend staying here for a night or a week!
Disliked: Everything was perfect!
