I really loved my stay! But...as the hostel is very popular, there are never enough bathrooms for everyone and you`ll have to wait for your shower. More

Books Hostel attracts awesome people. Don't stay here if you don't have the motivation to get out and about regardless of how awesome your hostel is. I barely left on account of all the amazing conversations I was having with the people there. There's a party every night of the week More

Extremely friendly and helpful staff, very small and intimate hostel meaning you get to know everyone. I'd particularly recommend it to someone travelling by themselves looking to make friends. It's more chilled out than other places with more of a "part atmosphere" but at the same time More

This hostel was the best (but also the most expensive) of our voyage. Thankfully, the staff spoke very good English since we can not speak portuguese. There are a lot of buses nearby and an Underground Station. Contrary to other hostels, there are enough and clean bathrooms. More
