I did not state a preference for a quiet room B.Com. I don’t mind answering your tick box Qs about the property but don’t like it when things are not true. The property was nice, great to have a kitchen, nice staff, good location.

The other guests were noisy but not until late. The keys turning in doors whenever someone entered or left their room is loud. Also people seem to close their doors by banging them closed loudly. Perhaps a sign here & there about respecting people’s quietness in nearby rooms. Otherwise, a great place to stay.

The modern property is owned and managed by Pedro, one of the most pleasant and helpful guys you will come across. He speaks well-educated English which is a bonus to many travellers passing through here. There is a large, self-help kitchen with everything one needs, and a dining/common room. A well stocked supermarket is 5 minutes walk away. Modern, large bunk beds with all towels supplied.

There are no negatives to this accommodation.

Pedro was a great hoster! He explained all to us with detailed and was super kind. Also, he offered us the entire bedroom for us, even though we booked individual beds. That was a great detail that helped us during Camino de Santiago to have some peace of mind and private space.

A group of teenagers were partying close to our room and making noise when entering the hostel late at night, which disturbed our sleeping time. I would suggest the hostel to be more strict with these type of behaviors. I would also suggest to open the kitchen earlier, as pilgrims need to wake up very early in the morning amd habe breakfast around 6am.

We were grateful that Pedro checked us in a little earlier than planned. He was very helpful with a map and directions to best restaurants, laundry and food markets. He gave very clear instructions on getting in and out of the hostel. We had a room to ourselves. It was a central location very close to the town center.

The bathroom needed some painting and maintenance.

Great location for the Camino de Santiago. Ni e hostel atmosphere and the choice of a private roo was nice. We were lucky to have a west facing balcony which was lovely for after dinner snacks and relaxing. Lovely little town. The host made good recommendations for places to eat.

It was a little noisy at night with the sound of sours closing echoing up the beautiful staircase.

I stayed in a double room which was very clean with comfy bed and lots of hot water. The communal areas are immaculate and kitchen is highly organised and well equipped. An excellent stop. The owner is very accommodating and has lots of useful information- he has a fabulous hostel and clearly has thought through all travellers needs. The area is very quiet but is very close to restaurants and the town and water front.

Nothing

I was doing the “Camino” with some friends. We got there and Pedro was doing the check in. He was super friendly, helpful and even was willing to answer all our questions about Portuguese history, we got a lesson for free! :) amazing! The place is very clean and comfortable and It is in a great location.

This is a great value and better than we expected. It’s extremely clean, the beds are very comfortable, and the facilities are very useful. The only two negatives are that there no A/C and there’s some noise from the road, but it didn’t bother us in late May. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

Because there’s no air conditioning and the window must be open there’s some traffic noise although it stops late in the evening.

My room was big and had a great balcony with the river view. I loved the balcony, that made a massive difference. The room was clean and in a very central locations, close to the shops and restaurants. Staff were very friendly. Before I arrived staff helped me book my horse riding. I enjoyed my stay.

Pedro was an excellent host offering great information for those doing the Camino. We had a twin room with a balcony and river views. Love staying here as there were great facilities and it’s a central location. Would definitely stay here again.
