the only thing good about this hotel is the location. it is very hard to find, and you have to go through a souvenir store to enter the property. it is basic at best but for the price there are better options in the area

Brilliant base for exploring Lisbon

Everything about this hostel is pretty standard, and you get everything you would expect. Its clean, the rooms are a little cramped but generally comfortable, and there is room for private storage. The greatest thing about this place, though, is its location. Located smack bang in the centre of the Rua Augusta, in downtown district of Baixa, it is the perfect place to explore Baixa, Alfama and the Barrio Alto, which are all within easy walking distance. Its also only a five minute walk to Cais do Sodre station where you can get to Belem or Cascais/Estrodil quickly and cheaply. Simply an excellent location to base yourself for a Lisbon excursion. Plus its very, very affordable.

Near perfect location & fits the cheapo's budget!

Nice, central, safe place to stay! bargain price for dorms makes it a winner. Breakfast was a treat with rich coffee to start off your day.

o banheiro tinha um cheiro horrível de esgoto, e um degrau que mais parece um degrau assassino, cai por duas vezes, e na primeira bati a mão . Conclusão acabei de sair do hospital, estou com frátura no dedo esquerdo, olha o presente , isso porque fiquei poucas horas. A localização é perfeita, mas nem para dormir uma noite eu aconselho. As escadas outro problema, um horror, um horror. Não recomendo jamais. Um cheiro no banheiro, que de manhã, não consegui tomar banho com cheiro de esgoto
