This is a true backpackers place, very well constructed and it’s noticeable that the owners themselves were backpackers, very welcoming place, very cool rooftop, cosy rooms. I had a very pleasant stay and maybe the best place I stayed in Portugal.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Mr. Vitor, the owner, is very responsive and cooperative. There is commitment to daily room cleaning service. The location is 2 minutes far from the city center. The place is safe and secure as well.

    The service was clear-cut and helpeful for my check-in. I was able to make the most of my accommodation and was surprised to the loneliness of the apartment and the centrality of the hostel to the downtown area. The bathroom in my "shared-room" (lonely stay) was beautiful.
