The host was super nice and friendly and his worker that does the check-in is just a 5 atar person. The room, kitchen and bathroom were always clean and with a good smell.

Absolutely wonderful experience with Mr. Costa! Not only is he incredibly friendly and genuinely cares about his guests, but he also goes above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and hassle-free stay. When I had to return my rental car earlier than expected, Mr. Costa promptly returned the rental fees without any fuss. Moreover, he was a tremendous help in a challenging situation. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a trustful and caring host!

29 Madeira hostel is a lovely, clean and comfortable hostel with a unique style. I loved the patio and met great people there. The staff is helpful and friendly. I recommend ear plugs for the night as there are cars passing and the walls are thin. The hostel guests behaved very respectful when I was there so I slept very well.

Really homey and super welcoming. Loved the other guests and also the staff/volunteers. Great location for more adventure-y sport/activities. Burger/Pizza nights really let you meet other people as well as locals. Also really clean.

    Great little place, doesn’t have a vibe of a hostel so great for people who are on a budget but not so social, two owners are really nice and helpful, they keep the place very clean. Location is very central, few mins walk to everything you need. Great showers. Wifi was fine for working but did sometimes cut of for a minute (209.1 Mbps download, 10.9 Mbps upload), the annoying thing was that every floor has a different wifi network. I had unlimited data but there was barely any signal on the patio to be able to use it.

    I had recently stayed 5 nights in 29 Madeira Hostel. It was a truly fantastic experience. First and foremost, the staff are exceptional, especially Andrea with her genuine willingness to assist with any inquiries or concerns. The dormitory rooms were clean, comfortable, well-maintained and the beds were cozy. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of cleanliness maintained throughout the hostel, including the shared bathrooms and common areas. Great location within walking distance of major attractions, restaurants, and public transportation.
