Worth a stay.

Pros: - Great location close to sites and public transport. - helpful staff. -Clean, communal area. Fantastic views- saw the light show of the Town Hall!

Cons: Room was a bit cold for my preference - there was a heater in the room but it wasn't sufficient. Toilet roll dispenser- useless! The toilet roll kept breaking off. -poor lighting in the bedroom..

Pros: The location is close to the Porto cathedral and train station Sao Bento. Every touristic attraction was at 15 minutes max. The rooms are clean and the furniture is new. The staff was lovely. You can buy breakfast at the location.

Cons: They do not have a centralized heating system in the building so the rooms are heated by AC and some nights were so chilly that the AC was overpowered.

Pros: Sam the receptionist was so lovely and down to earth. Was a pleasure to meet him and the bar crawl rep Mattheus was also very friendly and welcoming. Bed was comfy, room was clean. Location excellent.

Cons: The washing up liquid was watered down and the sponge to wash dishes looked ancient and could be replaced more frequently

I felt right at home

Pros: The reception team was kind and welcoming. I arrived late at night after a very hot day, and they had thoughtfully turned on the air conditioning before my check-in. The bed was comfortable, and the shower and bathroom were exceptionally clean. When I entered the room, it smelled fresh and pleasant.

All in all hip, inclusive warm welcoming - staff eager to help 😊

Pros: Inclusive vibe- unlike the One fam hostel next door which apparently has an age limit of 39 - so if you are older than that don’t go there - they will send you to cats anyways-

Cons: I was riding a bike on the Camino they had no real storage for bikes but it is the middle of the city so really that was my bad for not planning better -

CATastic! 😻💜 Purrrfect for a one night stay!

Pros: The cats concept, comfy beds. I would avise to put curtains on the bunk beds to give more privacy to the guests.

Cons: There’s nothing negative about this.

Great stay close to where you want to be in Porto

Pros: I liked being in the Annexed building as it was quiet. The staff were friendly, and the beds were comfy with adequate bedding supplied. It was a great location, easily found after exiting the Sao Bento Metro and within walking distance to everything I wanted to see. When our door fell off its hinges alternative accommodation was found for those affected.

Cons: I emailed management about the change in accommodation and didn't hear back.
