    I like that every bedroom has its own kitchen with stoves and a fridge. It's also very close to the Douro river, WOW and the historic centre of Porto.

    Excellent value for money as so close to the river. Room very clean and had everything needed. Airy and light. Some street noise - almost inevitable in such a location.

    Excellent location and great value for money. We had with an ensuite room and it was ideal. Very modern bathroom and comfy bed. Kitchen area was a bonus. Happily stay again!

    The hostel was very clean, the photos matched the reality, the bed was comfortable, and the staff were extremely friendly. They allowed me to check in many hours earlier than the usual time, which was a huge help and much appreciated.

    The dorms are cozy, only 4 beds in, have a bathroom, and a kitchen. There is a sitting area and a table with chairs to eat. Beautiful view. Near the river, walk distance to everything. The host is very friendly and helpful.

    Comfy beds, clean and well equipped. Great view from room over the city. Had bathroom and kitchen off the room. Great location for walking into Porto and good restaurants very nearby.
