Enjoyed our stay at The Passenger Hostel. Excellent location in Porto with great common areas. Despite being right in the train station, it felt secure and never felt unsafe. Only knock is that it can get a little loud from street noise, but it didn't bother me too much. Definitely a unique setup but in the best of ways. Would stay again!

One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at in all of my time solo travelling: perfect location, boutique feel, and very easy to meet fellow travellers with all of their social activities. Will be back!

A great hostel in a good location. Clean with good facilities. The 12 bed room was the best with huge couch’s in the super oversized room. An alright atmosphere- the hostel does out on social events. Oh and a Dyson hair dryer! Loved that
