Summary of traveller reviews

HI Guimaraes - Pousada de Juventude offers a fantastic location and a beautiful historic building. Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful staff, as well as the pleasant, simple breakfast. Some recent reviews mention noise from other rooms or a fan, and one noted bathroom maintenance needs.

Enjoyed my stay - location is great, bunks clean as are the common areas. Toilets clean. Showers a bit dated and prone to flooding if not careful. Bit odd I was sharing a bunk with someone when there was another empty one in the room - turned out fine but given they have an older metal frame, am sure we would have both appreciated not rocking things from time to time.

I stayed for two nights and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Nice and peaceful hostel, not far from the city center. Helpful and friendly staff. Pleasant free breakfast with a nice choice and good coffee. Not much atmosphere in the hostel itself.
