02 July 2007 Sally would recommend this property

Liked: The friendliness of the people who run it was evident from the moment we walked through the door. I can't think of a better place to relax for the weekend, it was like having a second home in a much sunnier climate! Perfection.

Ben Lees

27 March 2007 Ben would recommend this property

Liked: Hostel is owned by a young family, who were incredibly welcoming and went far out of their way to help us (in particular to find surf beaches). There is a very relaxed and familiar atmosphere in the hostel- a stocked beer fridge is run on a trust basis, with guests just helping themselves and recording what they take, the internet time is managed the same way. This was one of the best hostel experiences I have ever had and I would recommend the paintshop hostel to anyone staying in Fig. da Foz.

Liked: Only thing that`s missing is free showergel in the bathroom... If youre going to Portugal, forget algarve and head to Figueira da Foz. The hostel is great, all the stuff is new and the place is very relaxing. I have to come back and check the bar when it`s finished.

Customer review

16 August 2006 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I liked everything except the fact, that the room doesn't have a lock. But the english guy has the safe, so for the valuables there is no problem. This hostel is actually like a big flat with pool, TV with huge DVD selection, kitchen for use with free breakfast (like cereals). Very, very nice, especially for that price. I recommend it to everybody.

Liked: Very clean, great atmosphere, close to the sea and right in the heart of the old town surrounded by cafes and bars. The owners are experienced backpackers themselves and it showed in the right way. Recommended for good value, great surf, massive beaches and good weather. A1++++++
