The breakfast is delightful. Really really good location! The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen faculties are great, providing a stove, fridge and microwave.
I only had issues with the bathrooms in the hostel, not huge problems but just things the hostel needs to think about. - There were not enough toilets/bathrooms each level, only 2 per level which for the amount of people in each level is not enough. - One of the showers was under maintenance so there was only one shower on my level. Not their fault but it’s inconvenient. - The lock on the bathroom door on the 1st floor needs fixing because it’s very hard to actually lock. - There is a huge mould problem in one of the bathrooms - like black and white mould. It’s needs fixing ASAP! - They didn’t provide towels to dry your hands in the bathroom. Not a huge deal but it’s a simple thing to change.

Nice breakfast, helpful staff, Good location. Basic clean hostel accommodation with reception on the first floor, of an old building, in a cobbled street. But this was clear when booked so no problem.
If you have a wheeled suitcase, this is a very cobbled street, this is a street party area of town so if you have a street facing room, you need to keep the window closed (fan, not aircon) or have your earplugs handy.

Excellent value for money, so comfortable and I loved the location. Staff were lovely. There was breakfast but I never had it. The room was spacious and clean. If you are ok with just a room, a shared bathroom, and shared kitchen I'd defo recommend
A few reviews speak to the noise, but I mean it's a lovely old building, creaky floors, windows straight on to the street what do you expect. The buzzer door bell was active during the day, so people have gotta come in I didn't like the lack of fan in the bathrooms, but they were in good condition

- amazing location - especially if you don't mind some party noise from the street. I loved it! - friendly staff. - Easy and quick check-in and check out with a code. - The bed was clean and comfy. - coffee machine in the building with free coffee, tea, etc.
- the stairs - it was an old building with a lot of stairs. My room was on the 4th floor, so it was a bit hard to reach upstairs with a big heavy bag. - the room could have been a bit cleaner. Also, there were loads of bathrooms on each floor which was a big advantage; however, some were not quite clean! - the breakfast is nice; however, if you arrive late, there won't be much left to eat. There was some bread and jam on the table without any refills

The location was great, in the city center, everything was reachable, many nice places for lunch and dinner around. We had an amazing breakfast, the hosts make it for you every morning. The room was nice, with a lot of space and a minimalist style, which we liked. Everything was clean and comfortable.
The only thing is that the accommodation is in an area where it is very lively and many bars and clubs around. There is basically a nightclub next to the building, and the music is super loud, you can even feel the vibration of the music in the room. We did get earplugs that helped, but I would suggest staying here only if you wish to go out yourself, otherwise, it would be very difficult to sleep.

Stayed 4 nights m7ddle of april, got the single room at the end of floor directly under the roof and right beside the bathroom (no. 4). Really small room, but kind of cosy, liked it. Some noise in the evening/ nights and smell from the restaurants. But that was expectable when booking that barrio and therefor totally fine for me. Bathroom clean (and good functioning :-). Breakfast differs: boys make good portions, girl quite small ones. But everybody with lovely commitment. Also liked the all-day usable coffee-automat in the kitchen ... for free ;-).
One could think of changing the time of cleaning the bathrooms: 8 in the morning? Really? Peolpe who want to sleep longer become awake and then cannot use the bathroom because the cleaner is doing a quite careful job

First time in Lisbon and as a solo traveler, and the location was very convenient to walk around and explore. The breakfast was moderate but fulfilling. It consisted of eggs, small pancakes, toast, yogurt and a vegetable. Coffee/cappuccino was available 24/7. And sometimes the staff made dinner for 10 euros, which was really nice and allowed you to bond with other travelers and try meals from different origins. The room was nice! No complaints. I overall had a very pleasant stay, and the people I met at the property were extremely nice and accommodating. Would highly recommend and stay here again if I were to come back.
Location is near a lot of bars and walls are somewhat thin. You will hear A LOT of noise but honestly I did not mind. Only complaint. But this honestly does not subtract from the value of the place.

We pick the place based on the location , previous reviews the white rooms , clean facilities, the kitchen was amazing, breakfast healthy and good choices , even though is the busiest party street in Lisbon we manage to sleep 💤 the windows work fine . Also we did drop off our luggage 19 days before staying there not cost , extremely safe :)
Everything was great , the bathroom a bit small , the entrance did not match the beauty of upstairs , and they had great soap ! In the bathroom.

I received a very warm welcome on arrival, and the reception team helped me carry my suitcase up the many stairs to my floor! I was in a double room which was light and bright, with lots of space. The bathroom was spotlessly clean. The location is super central.
It can't be helped, but being located in an area that's popular for nightlife, there's always noise at night. That said, with good earplugs I slept just fine. I also would have appreciated a self-serve option for breakfast; when I came down to quickly grab mine before heading out on a tour, a breakfast was being lovingly prepared for a full table of guests! This is a thoughtful touch, but I was a bit intimidated by having to join the table and was in a rush so didn't have time to wait. It also would be great to have an extra bathroom on each floor - it looked like there was only one shower between maybe 8-10 people on mine. Finally, a big sign to direct people to the hostel would have been helpful. I struggled to find it and didn't notice the buzzer on the door at first.

Room was perfect, I loved the design, it was bright and fresh. Bed was really comfortable, everything was clean. Location is really central.
I think they should at least include some cheese or something for breakfast, because there are only jams and chocolate cream, only sweets. I prefer to eat before going out, so breakfast I’ve read about in reviews was one of the reasons I chose this place, but I guess they stopped making it.
