Very clean and comfortable place. Location was perfect, 15 min walk to the metro station. Tiago was very helpful and accommodating. Probably the best hostel I’ve seen in Europe so far.

Hostelworld says

As the name suggests, Gallery Hostel Porto is a beautiful hostel filled with original art and located in an area surrounded by art galleries. It?s about 10 minutes? walk from the centre. Hostelworld guests have said they?d definitely recommend this hostel, ?especially if you like art and music?. This hostel features a summer terrace and winter garden, very friendly staff and ensuite dorms. We particularly like their delicious nightly Portuguese dinners, which cost around ?10.
