Location is really great and unique. Inside the train station and central Porto. I had a private room and it’s probably one of the nicest/largest hostel rooms I’ve ever seen. Also very close to Porto Cathedral for anyone starting the Camino!

Amazing hostel! The location is perfect. Very central and close to everything. The rooms are spacious and I was especially impressed by how clean and well maintained the rooms, washrooms and showers were. Everyone was friendly and helpful especially Alexia and Zala who were both amazing! My only suggestion would be adding AC to the rooms. Even in September, they can get quite hot. Otherwise, a fantastic stay and I absolutely recommend. Otherwise, a fantastic stay and I absolutely recommend.
