This morning at 7:00 a.m., demolition and construction work began directly adjacent to our room. The noise from hammers, drills, and other construction equipment was extremely loud and made it impossible for us to rest.

This situation is entirely unacceptable. At no point prior to our arrival or during the booking process were we informed that major construction work would be taking place next to our room. Had we been made aware of this, we would never have chosen to stay at your property.

As a result, we were forced to leave the hotel with all of our luggage and wait outside for hours because our transportation had been arranged for later in the day.

We have video recordings clearly the construction activity and the level of noise experienced from our room.

This property is a hostel not a hotel. Rooms are small with very little comfort. One small pillow. Broken locks with old fashion keys that rarely work. 25 steps to the second floor and another 20 steps to the 3rd floor. Surrounding area is extremely loud between 11 pm and 0330 am. Very minimal. Great location. Staff is only there to clean. Extremely old building.

Great location and very nice staff with very comfortable beds and an amazing price. The rooms were falling apart, the wall paint was cracking due to water damage. The bathrooms were nice but oddly often out of toilet paper. It is also NOT handicap accessible, the stairs were very hard to get up. The reception is weird hours, one day they’re open most of the night and the next they aren’t open until very late. This place is fine and would stay again if I had to but it would not be my first choice.

Good location, but very loud both outside and inside of the hostel. The main issue I found was the guest staying there at the same time were very inconsiderate, many of the other guests were loud past the quiet hours listed (stomping around and yelling and loudly talking until 3-4 am) and were not clean which made sharing a bathroom very unpleasant. The bathrooms are in poor condition with mold and water damage everywhere, it’s fairly cheep per night and is close to a lot of things but I wouldn’t recommend.

This was the worst experience I could imagine and I didn't even stay there. After no one answered the phone on different times on different days, we showed up at check in time (4pm). The receptionist was unable or unwilling to help us despite our reservation and prepayment we showed her. She had us wait almost 2 hours before deciding that the only way we could proceed was to wait for her boss and pay for an entirely new room. She blamed Expedia for not inputting us into her system and we were never given a refund from either company. Trust me: do not entertain this booking

This was a good value for the price. The room we had had a nice little balcony that we made great use of. The room was clean, and the staff were friendly and understanding even when we arrived late due to a flight delay. That said, this isn't a hotel-- if you're looking for the Hilton experience, go to the Hilton. What this IS is a very nice hostel experience! The common areas were cleanand orderly, and I generally felt pretty safe there. Also your can't beat this location if you're looking to explore the night life scene, there's dozens of clubs, bars, fado houses, etc. on the same street and on all the streets around it, as well as many fantastic bakeries and restaurants! It was also a quick walk to the river shore. Overall I had a comfortable stay here.

Central location

This is a Hotel/hostel it’s located in central Lisbon, The only comment is you have to climb stairs and we had a room on the third floor and we had to climb many stairs, the second and third floor stairs don’t have handrails, It is good for healthy people, shared bathroom in the morning and evening you have to wait some times.

👎👎👎 MAKE SURE TO GO TO GOOGLE TO READ REVIEWS ON THIS PLACE!

WHAT A MASSIVE DUMP!!! *THIS IS A HOSTEL!!!*
PICTURES ARE *NOT* LIKE ACTUAL FACILITIES.

Do yourself a favor and DO NOT stay here if you are a person who appreciates a quiet stay, a comfortable bed, and friendly staff. This is NOT worth €90 a night. More like €30 a night!!!

INCONSIDERATE GUESTS WHO COME IN AT 2AM SLAMMING DOORS, WALKING LOUDLY AND YELLING, AND OF COURSE THERE IS NO RECEPTION SO NO ONE IS HERE TO CONTROL THIS.

*TONS* OF STAIRS.

Bathroom is DISGUSTING and there are balls of hair in room floors.

Definitely a no frills property for people looking for a place to crash after a long night out in Bairro Alto. No response when asked to drop bags early (via text). No one arrives at the property until checkin time at 4pm. The AC didn't work in the room and when asked about looking into fixing it they made an attempt, but when that didnt work the response was like \"well, what can you do? Works great in the winter.\" Wouldn't stay here again.

Didn’t meet expectations

I travelled continually for 7 years and stayed in many hostels, and this one was by far the worst for comfort. It’s impossible to sleep at night due to the noise. I had expected a certain level of noise and being able to hear music due to the hostels location, however the music is so loud the bass vibrates the room until 4am, then the sound of bottles being emptied into large bins continues until 7am. Unless you’re on a trip solely to drink and stay out late (perhaps a stag do) this hostel wouldn’t work. Further to this the air con didn’t work in the rooms at all, it turned itself off after around 5 seconds of being on despite all settings being changed, upon complaining about this we were advised this was in all rooms and they were very good at heating- not useful. My bedsheets were also stained. There also isn’t a communal area other than the kitchen to meet people, which is often offered in other hostels.
Positives are that the hostel other than the bedsheets was very clean- including the bathroom, and it’s in a very central location. Overall I think the description of the hostel needs updating to reflect the levels of noise, and that there’s no air con so people can be better placed to choose whether they’d want to stay there.

Hox!! We were charged for late check-in, which is fine If it was informed more than a couple of hours before our check-in. The hostel is in great location on a clubbing street. The hostel is a bit noisy but we slept still well. There was a French balcony in our room, which was lovely. The check-in person was nice. Tourist tax was paid by cash, which does not necessarily bring reliabiliness.

Just one toilet for 4 rooms at the last floor.
Lock the main door correctly otherwise someone drunk can came in and try to open the doors of the different rooms... You will not sleep well once again :)

You get what you pay for! Rooms are small.and basic. If you're looking for a place in the heart of the nightlife then you've picked the right spot. The staff are very friendly and there is a cleaning person daily to clean up the mess of people staying there.
However, sharing amenities like a kitchen and bathroom with others can lead to messy places. The bathroom was full of hair (not the fault of the accomodations as they cleaned it the next day) and the kitchen was filled with crums from guests.
Also, you're right in the heart of Bario Alto and the party goes until 4 am!!

Liked the fact it was a traditional converted property with most of the original structures still there, but I wasn't happy about the busy street without a kerb, all activities are very loud. The bar next door had people coming out all night until 4 am, talking loudly, drinking and smoking under the windows, without any respect for those sleeping. It is in an area where people go out clubbing all night long, restaurants open late and loud music booming into your ears.

Tudo ia bem até o susto na madrugada

A hospedagem entrega o que promete: acomodações simples, mas funcionais, e uma boa localização para explorar a cidade. É importante se preparar para algumas ladeiras no caminho — com malas, pode ser um pouco cansativo. A estrutura do prédio é antiga, o que se reflete em detalhes como as escadas estreitas, mas nada que comprometa a estadia. O banheiro é ok, cumpre bem sua função.

Infelizmente, tivemos um contratempo que nos deixou desconfortáveis: por volta das 2h20 da manhã, alguém tentou abrir a porta do nosso quarto de forma insistente. Foi uma situação bastante assustadora, principalmente por sermos duas mulheres viajando sozinhas, e gerou uma sensação de insegurança que marcou a experiência.

No geral, a hospedagem é boa, mas esse episódio certamente nos fez repensar se voltaríamos a nos hospedar aqui.
