  • Responsive hosts — The owners, particularly Clara, receive frequent praise for communication and helpfulness, including late check-ins and luggage storage.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 20:00. Late arrivals need to arrange a code, which guests have said works well, but it's not a standard reception.
  • Basic rooms and shared bathrooms — Most rooms are simple with shared facilities, and the dormitory rooms are exactly that. If you prefer privacy, the family room is an option but still shares a bathroom.
  • No pets and no smoking — The property does not allow pets or smoking on site, which could be a limitation for some travelers.
  • Not in the city center — It's in the residential Olivais area, about 25 minutes' walk from the main shopping mall and a bit further from the historic center. The metro helps, but you'll need to budget travel time.
