Between Célio, Cayenn, Oscar and the cleaning staff; the HPH became a nestled home on the north bank of the Douro river. Right next to Porto's Alfândega Exhibition center and walking/biking distance to malls, historic district & beaches

This stay was really nice. I stayed in the women’s dorm and I really appreciated that it came equipped with a hair dryer and hair straightener. It was a nice touch. The hostel is very laid back and people tend to keep to themselves which I enjoyed because I was tired. The view from the dorm rooms is also very nice over the water
