The staff was the best! Very nice and helpful people. The place feels modern, safe and clean. The location is great too, very close to the touristic attractions. Breakfast was very nice, they offered savoury and sweet food (breads, cereals and fruit) plus juice and coffee. All fresh and in a clean kitchen. Thank you very much! I really enjoyed my stay!

The place is great, modern and clean, and all the staff was nice and welcoming. Great breakfast and only a 5 minute walk from the centre of the city. The bathroom, which could be accessed directly from the room, had 2 showers for a room of six, so you never had to wait, and was always really clean. I only stayed a couple of days but i wish i could've stayed longer!

    This place was the best hostel for the same price i paid in other cities. I have been to 5 hostels during this trip in Spain and Portugal. Team is great. Unfortunatelly i didn't ask the name of the gentlemen at the reception but he is very accommodative and valuable Sandeman teammember. All speak English very well which makes communication simple and clear. Very picturesque view from dining room window and atmosphere is relaxing and calming. They have welcome drink, also tea time for free. Breakfast is great!

    This is the best hostel i have been to. And i have done two interrail trips around Europe, probably visiting at least 30+ hostels. The location is wonderful, everybody in the staff is super nice, they have all the things you need at a good backpacker hostel, great breakfast and great dinners at affordable prices.

    I loved everything about this hostel. Top location (right next to Cais de Gaia), super friendly hosts (Dina and Eduarda were helpful and gave me amazing tips on what to visit in Gaia and Porto), the dormitory was warm and very clean, the pressure of the showers was great. The vibe is a thing, you meet super cool people. I truly loved the experience.
