I had a great stay at this hostel. The front desk staff, especially Diogo, was incredibly friendly and helpful – truly an excellent employee who made the experience even better. The hostel itself is clean, safe, and well-maintained. There are enough shower facilities for everyone, which is always a plus. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a affordable and welcoming stay.
