Liked: The place is nice. Close to Douro's mouth. You could reach Matousinho's beach in 20 min. max and the Old City too. If you like to walk, I suggest to try to reach the Old City by foot. It takes about 1hour, but the walk by the Douro is really nice.

Disliked: They could keep it cleaner (particularly the kitchen) and may change a bit more towels and linen. Also the breakfast could be better, maybe offered a bit more and including teas!

Liked: the view to the river is very pretty

Disliked: dirty beds and towels. Therooms smelled bad. The doors are not safe (very thin, space between the florr and door, normal old locker). Ants in the bathroom. The light turns of during shower, you have to leave the cabine to turn it on again. The showers and toilettes are to old and dirty. The breakfast is a joke, the quality is so bad it would be better not to offer.

Liked: I liked the free breakfast. Grocery store is right across the street and there is a full kitchen. The kitchen is missing some random things, like knives...

Disliked: A computer with internet is ridiculously expensive at 2 euros for 30 minutes and there is no other internet services near by. It is also a fair distance walk to the center (40 minutes or more).

Liked: Good youth hostel. The location isn't in the city centre but is a nice walk along the bank and only a few minutes by taxi or bus. Its nice that you can walk around to the beaches on the other side of Porto easily. Is only really an albergue so little character but good value for money with good security.

Disliked: jessica left no negative feedback.
