El hostel está muy bien ubicado y con metro a un minuto de distancia. Por el precio, me parece excelente opción y de parte de la administración siempre se intenta mantener todo limpio. El olor en general no era el mejor, pero eso no se lo atribuyo a ellos jaja. Muy recomendable.

Love to come back here

The staff were friendly and keep it tidy often the time. You can charge devices right next to bed and laundry (washing and drying) service is available. Actually staff is at the reception all the time so that check in can be made after midnight as well. The only thing I did not like was air mattress. So far it was pleasant stay for me

Liked: Cleanliness
Bad part: They charge for towel and only accept cash, does not use contactless payment system, which is utterly backward in this age of smartphone. Who uses cash in this age? Good part: The property is right next to the conde de casal station, and the airport is within 30 min from this station.

La Colombiana joven que trabaja en el hostel es muy irrespetuosa, te juzga y se mete en tu vida personal. Tocó mis pertenencias que tenía encima y debajo de la cama y me mezcló toda mi ropa por segunda vez. No hay espacio suficiente en la habitación para dejar tus cosas. Solo una taquilla pequeña. También me dijo que no podia salir en toalla para cambiarme en mi habitación porque los hombres comentan? Cuando solo hay un baño en la planta de arriba , y me parece muy machista y fuera de lugar decir algo así a una huesped. Y cuando le dije que por favor no tocara mis pertenencias, que estaba un poco desordenado porque me fuí corriendo a una entrevista, me responde que si tengo entrevista todos los días. Como tienen a una persona así trabajando de cara al público? También he sido amenazada e insultada por otros huéspedes, y no han tomado medidas. Por esta chica me quieren echar, y si es así voy a reclamar a quien haga falta. Porque quien tiene que responder por su comportamiento y falta de respeto a un huésped es ella. Que mala experiencia.
