I chose this hostel for the location inside the historic train station and opportunity to meet other travelers. The hostel hosts daily events and activities for guests. The staff were helpful and friendly. The bathrooms were very modern. The bed was comfortable. Rooms felt secure. It is also close to popular attractions and public transit. I would stay here again.

The staff is the best part, they are all extremely kind and helpful. The kitchen area on the top floor for breakfast was collegial. There's an elevator, laundry room and very clean bathrooms. It was a novelty to stay here, in a private room. But the city is digging a new subway line directly in front of the hostel, so the windows face into a noisy construction zone. The room has blackout drapes but ... there's a window at loft bed-level, above the door, where every time someone walks down the hallway and triggers the motion sensor light, your room lights up.

6/10 Okay

Nice, convenient location in the city centre. Some nice activities run by the staff. The hostel does have people popping in and and out at odd hours. The cleaning ladies do a fabulous job and are very helpful. Breakfast is average and depends on on who has woken up after last nights pub crawl to get things ready for the guests, accordingly some items may or may not be there. No food or drinks allowed in the dorm but that doesn't stop people from opening a bottle of wine and drinking it openly or turning the lights on at mid night or talking loudly. While some are more respectful of others privacy, the others may be not. Beware that there could be some guests lurking around just to make friends for a free drink and more. But as I said all in all it is convenient and that's important.

Red Flag — Great Stay, But Major Safety Concerns

Red Flag — Great Stay, But Major Safety Concerns I genuinely enjoyed my stay overall — the atmosphere was great, the location convenient, and the staff generally friendly. However, safety is a serious concern that future guests should be aware of. Unfortunately, my bag was stolen from the reception area, where guests are encouraged to leave their luggage for temporary storage. I trusted this service, only to find that my belongings had disappeared — with no clear explanation. To make matters worse, I was told the security cameras weren’t functioning properly, so there’s no footage of the incident. When I asked for further investigation, the response was dismissive at best. I was told, “Sorry, this never happened before,” which didn’t help recover my belongings or restore trust. Too many unanswered questions and a lack of accountability turned what could have been a great experience into a stressful and disappointing one. Bottom line: If you choose to stay here, do NOT leave your luggage at reception — and keep your valuables with you at all times.

My rating is based on a hostel scale. This is a great hostel located at a fantastic location that I let it be a surprise as many of you will travel by train to Porto. The staff is super helpful and keeps you entertained. It is a younger solo clientele but hang in there and have fun! I do warn you that there are three levels of bunk beds. So you could be way on top!

I’d never stayed at a hostel before as a solo traveler and this was THE BEST EXPERIENCE! I honestly had no idea what to expect but the staff was so accommodating and welcoming. There are events everyday and it was the easiest way to meet people. The breakfast was amazing and included. The facilities are so nice. The ceilings were so tall and the rooms were spacious. The location is also perfect. It’s right in the middle from all the main attractions. I thought it might be loud since it’s by the train station but I couldn’t even tell that we were in there, I never had any issues with noise. I would 10000% recommend this to anyone who is solo traveling or wants to meet people. Definitely a younger crowd but still anyone and everyone would feel welcome here!! It’s also right next to Time Out Market which has some of the best food.
