More of a hotel than a hostel, no elevator and they could use a handle on the inside of the door instead of a tiny latch that you can barely grab. Overall an alright stay. Large room with a nice balcony.

Such a simple and wholesome hostel. A classic hostel stay. The room was spacious for 6 people. Theres only one bathroom for 10 people. The room is cleaned daily. Theres a mini kitchen and fridge to store food. The hostel is right near the city center. Theres so many fun things to do in this area like salsa at Guanabana, night out with good music at the Tavern, karaoke near the city center. Beach/ Algarves are a 10 min walk away. Id stay again! Staff was super nice and helpful

Great room, great location, easy to walk everywhere. It was advertised as parking on site. There is no parking. Almost impossible to find in the streets. I had to pay to use a parking garage. Other than that it was great.

I presume it is an old building built as apartments and townhouses but converted into a hostel. Therefore the design seems a little odd.

Spanish holiday
This is a basic hostel that incorrectly advertises its Seperate units with bathroom. These were advertised with balcony, kitchen and dining , city views and parking and pool . We had no balcony and faced a backstreet that people looked in directly to the room. Parking was on the street, look for your own and maybe get one close by. The kitchen was shared with a number of people. No pool what so ever We had a bathroom and kitchen next to us anda conversation pit below so the noise was extra loud with nil sound proofing. The bed may as well have been in the street. You expect some noise in a hostel but this room was excessive. The cost was very high compared to the other rooms. To round it off we found at least 6 dirty cut toenails around the floor and the tv stopped on the last night. The staff were very nice and the location is handy and would’ve been ok as a basic hostel. We have stayed in a number of hostels travelling the Camino and this would be worse than anything we came across. Pedro needs to review the advertisement and correct it. Do not stay here unless you are looking for a basic hostel.

Really good Hostel, Great Location! I LOVED Lagos, great Beach vibe and City! I felt very safe. Lots of Local Entertainment in the Big Square. I liked No hassling from the vendors. However if you like to swim..the water was brrrr...cold, even on a HOT day, not Refreshing But Cold! I was surprised by that!

Disappointing stay.
Good location and friendly staff but the positives end there. Room smelt very damp and musty without any air fresheners to mask this or a powerful enough extractor fan to deal with this. One of the bedside lamps was not plugged in and there were only two plug sockets (one for each light but none for guest appliances/chargers). The room looked onto the communal patio and was not double glazed so was very noisy at night.

Great private room
We had a great stay in a private room at the hostel. The room was impeccably clean and tidy. The room and bathroom were very modern and dry which made our stay very comfortable. The private room was on par with a 2-3 star hotel so we were thoroughly impressed! The staff were friendly and helpful and the location was perfect.

Small hostel with a family feel to it
Amazing location right by all the bars but you can't hear them at all at night which was perfect. Close to beaches, shops. Not a bad walk from train or bus also. Great wifi
