27 October 2009	Customer review I must say that I was quite surprised with Lisbon Calling. I wanted a simple hostal and when I arrived I was immediately struck by how nice the atmosphere is. I booked for the 4 bedroom but when I arrived there I immediately wanted to stay in frescos room. High ceilings, amazing wall paintings from the beginning of the 19th century and really nice view to the church square. I’ve been in several hostals before, but never in one with fresco paintings. The whole place was decorated in a very unique way, everything though out to make it special. No IKEA furniture! Even the beds were specially made just for the hostal! In addition, I found the staff to be very friendly and always ready for a chat or just to give advice on where the best places to go. I definitely would recommend the Lisbon Calling Hostal to anyone who wants to stay in Lisbon, for all of the above reasons but also because it couldn’t be better located – in the centre, next to Bairro Alto and to all the necessary transportation – subway, trains and buses - to lead me wherever I wanted to go in Lisbon, as well as around Lisbon like Sintra and Cascais. To put it in one sentence, I will definitely be back!	100%

16 October 2009	Ramesh Krishnan I stayed here for the second time. I would not have stayed here if it wasn't good. The staff are toooo friendly. One thing that travellers wouldn't know is the feasibility for access to the public transport. The hostel is located next to the station called 'Cais do Sodre', its like the centre point station (Metro+Train+Bus+Tram station) for access to all of Lisbon and places around Lisbon like Cascais, Setubal, Cacilhas, etc., and more over, it is right in the centre of the city. So, if you are staying in Lisbon for only one night or two, and you definitely want to see the night life of Lisbon (which it is famous for) in Baxia, Chiado Alfama and the famous 'Tram 28 ride' , this is the best place to stay. You can just walk to all these places from the hostel by foot. Way to go Lisbon calling!!! I am definitely staying here the next time I come to stay in Lisbon.	100%

09 October 2009	Ramesh Krishnan Extremely friendly staff. Best value for money. Central location. Best suited place even if you stay in Lisbon only for a day or two, that you can see most of the places in the central city, the Portugal streets and its night life. I want to stay only here when I come to Lisbon again.	100%

30 August 2009	Customer review Very cool tree house hostel. Breakfast included. Staff was really friendly and very helpful. It had a cosy homely kind of atmosphere. Absolutely amazing. Really close to transport. Great place to get some sleep and still go out. It was quite small so there wasnt a huge amount of noise after around 11. Probably the best hostel I have stayed in..	95%

18 July 2009	Camille Goleb EVERYTHING. It was really charming and homey. The handmade beds were delightful and everything was very clean. I spent a whole day just relaxing there and was extremely comfortable and happy. They had books to read and tons of useful information about the city and area. I will make sure to come back whenever I'm in Portugal again, and I will be singing this hostel's praises to everyone I know.	97%
