8/10 Very Good

Exceeds Expectations
Relaxed, modern and a pretty unique Hostel as it functions with processes & procedures like that of a 3or4-star hotel in a fantastic location near the Douro River. The added unique touches like a "welcome drink", wooden keycards & carpets in hallways as well as extra large storage were unique special touches & greatly appreciated. I enjoyed my stay at this establishment. With special thanks to Mathieu, Thiego, Victor, Maria, Clinton, Shaddy and everyone else who made my stay a memorable one!

8/10 Very Good

Location was great and bed was comfortable. Bathroom was dirty and there was no toilet paper at all when I arrived at 4 pm so I think there wasn't any cleaning done that day. The small nightstand next to bed wasn't cleaned and was dirty and also some rubbish in the locker. The sinks were in the room, not in the bathroom so I woke up when someone was running the water in the middle of the night.
