    Wifi was not working properly on the 2nd floor on some parts of our room We have to go down the lobby to get fully access. Bed was a bit odd as it is 3 bunks. When you’re sitting on the bed it’s very tight you have to bend. Apparently there’s no ceiling light. Only on your bed. It would be nice if there’s a counter table or at least a clean couch

    It is right in front of a beautiful view. Staff were helpful. Close to the city centre. Safe area

    The restaurant menu didn't really cater for solo travellers eating alone. The dishes on offer were for sharing between atleast 2 people.

    Beautiful accommodation in an interesting location with a great vibe in the hotel and surrounding area. Friendly welcoming staff on reception and in the hotel restaurant. Delicious restaurant food. Good breakfast. Clean bathroom. Clean kitchen. Lovely sitting rooms. Clean comfortable bed. Ample storage drawer under bed. Excellent security.

    The noise from the back streets was the only complaint we had and it woke us up a few times in the night. However it’s a small price to pay when staying in a ‘party central’ location.

    My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and thought the hostel was exceptional! We had a double room to ourselves which meant we were slightly further away from the big dorms, however the room was beautiful, light and airy and had a lovely little balconette that overlooked the back of the building. The entire place was clean, staff were friendly and breakfast was delicious. Sadly we didn’t dine in the restaurant in the evening, however the menu looked very good. The location was great for us as we were able to walk everywhere within the city. (The only downside with the hostel being on the top of the hill meant a very steep climb back up 😂!) Overall we would highly recommend this place as somewhere to stay in Lisbon, in particular if you are looking for a budget friendly stop 😊.

    The hot water was out my last morning there.

    Gorgeous and clean, felt more like a boutique hotel than a private room in a hostel. The shower pressure was amazing and staff were all welcoming and wonderful. I felt extremely safe as a female solo traveler

    Some guests at the hostel were quite loud and not friendly, which is something that the hostel obviously can't affect, but it did affect my stay a little at first.

    The staff and the customer service was excellent. I had some problems with my hostel stay, so they were really helpful and kind and solved the problem. Special thanks to the red haired lady at reception, she was super helpful and understanding.

    On the whole it was all really good but the room is a little tired and the shower was a little frustrating. Incredible water pressure but too much for the drain and would overflow the tray if turned on fully so had to play for ages adjusting to lowest flow possible to have a shower. Was ok but a shame. .

    Fantastic location, staff and vibe. The whole place is really interesting and a bit kooky but in a good way. The building is clearly very old and interesting. The restaurant is fantastic we had one dinner here and it was fantastic.

    The property was in a great location to the Rossio metro station. The breakfast was amazing and totally worth it. The bed was comfortable. It is near a place that has music booming but that is everywhere in this area. Lots of places to get food and drinks nearby. Also a great view just across the street.

    Nothing. Or smaller room. Max 8. But more means you can meet more people?!?

    Breakfast is primordial for me and I give a 10 on 10 for what you served and the spirit in wich it had been served. It is a joyful time of the day 😉😊 Location is good and feel life (music in the parc)

    Only one shower worked during my staying, and the bathroom is a bit tight. One idea that might be practical is to put a shelf on the wall next to the beds, so that people can put their phones or access cards there during the sleep.

    The atmosphere is amazing, the staff were very kind and helpful, the location was perfect, the breakfast was really good. The welcome drink was such a good surprise. In the room the storage was spacious.
