The delightful hostel offered comfortable and tidy rooms to our stay. It is located in a convenient area that allows us to easily explore Lisbon. We'll find a nearby supermarket called Pingo Doce, as well as a cosy café. The Marques Pombal Park, which is considered one of the best parks in Lisbon, is also close by. And there are metro stations within walking distance of the hostel, making it easy for us to get around the city. We're glad to enjoy our stay and we appreciate it.

The bed was very comfortable, the room was clean and the location was quite good, well connected with the metro. The staff let us check-in earlier than the official check-in times and were very kinds.

Was locked out- did not feel safe at all! Not a place for women.

This place has good potential with the location etc, but we had a horrible experience here. I have 30+ bites on my body from the bed bugs which has really put a damper on the holiday because they are so uncomfortable and swollen. We told the reception about this half way through the stay when we suspected it was bed bugs instead of mosquitoes, and they switched our rooms. Our new room was a step down from the last one, and we found dead bed bugs under the bed. We spoke to the receptionist to let them know we were not happy with our stay and would like compensation. They were unhelpful and rude, telling us to email *********** and basically implying it wasn’t their problem and it’s up to us. In general the place is pretty run down, facilities minimum, but we probably wouldn’t have minded due to the good price. There is a bit of a strange vibe overall with non-guests hanging around the hostel and reception drinking and so on. The balcony is pretty much just a laundry area with rubbish dotted around. Bathrooms are quite gross with mould around sealant etc. I wouldn’t have left this review if the customer service wasn’t so bad. Have stayed in so many hostels over the years and never been dealt with so unprofessionally. Judging from other reviews the bed bug issue has been going on for months.

Cons- lift not working which made it really hard to carry suitcases. One of the staff kept switching off the lights while guests were in the toilet. Yes it was during the day but the bathrooms are very dark even during the day. Pros- room and bathroom cleaner than what I expected taking in consideration it was shared bathroom. Staff and cleaned the bathroom everyday and most guests made an effort to keep it clean after using it. Very close to pingo doce where you can have a decent lunch or dinner under 10 euros. Walking distance to Picoas and Saldanha station. For those who enjoy walking, it’s a great location fairly close to main attraction such as cais do Sodré and time out market. If needed I would use it again
