My first experience of staying in a hostel and i have to say i was very impressed! Beautiful art-deco building. Great facilities, very comfortable bedrooms (we had a private twin). The location is excellent, only a couple of mins walk down the hill and you're right in the heart of town. The staff are so helpful and friendly and full... More

Overall, Spot Hostel is fantastic. It is as beautiful as in the pictures, gorgeous wood floors, fresh white linens, and very clean. I got in a little early and there were two women cleaning very thoroughly, and dishes and the kitchen were constantly being scrubbed down. There are huge lockers under the beds, to which they give you a free... More

Awesome hostel in a great location. Warm showers, free wifi, free breakfast and good kitchen facilities. The bedrooms are clean and basic with a free locker under your bed. The staff are amazing and full of tips and advice about where to visit and eat/ drink. The hostel takes part in a free tour (see Pancho Tours, Porto) which are... More

My friend and I decided to take a trip to Portugal rather last minute. As such, we didn't have much time to shop around for a hostel. We kind of just took the first hostel we could find that looked like it might be OK. I mean, in pictures, the hostel looked beautiful. Too beautiful. Pictures can be deceiving. Imagine... More

While I do not normally stay in hostels, I decided to give this one a go and I am very happy I did. The staff were really helpful, the rooms and bathrooms were really clean and the lockers under the bed meant that I did not have to worry about my stuff or drag my suitcases out of the room... More

The hostel in general is great. In the first floor there's the hall/reception, the library with two computers with internet for free, the living room with tv, playstation3 and two sofas and the kitchen, fully furnished. We were at the third floor in a private double room with shared badroom. Since we were in Porto during the week, we didn't... More

Our first hostel stay and I think we started with the best. Twin room was spartan but very clean and comfortable as was the shared bathroom which was right outside the door. Enjoyed meeting other travellers at dinner and/or at the bar. The staff could not have been nicer. They even outlined a walking tour for us.

It's a great hostel, quite close to the city centre. Very clean and spacious. Good, tasty breakfast. Well equiped kitchen + a cheap dinner on offer every day. Plenty of opportunity to meet other people, chill out in the basement bar (cheap drinks) and take part in social activities (karaoke, free guided tour of Porto), but also great if you're... More
