Ótimo e muito confortável

Gostei muito! A limpeza é muito bem feita todos os dias, os atendentes são bem educados. As camas são bem confortáveis e a roupa de cama é nova, com toalha boa também. O ambiente é bem confortável e prezam pelas regras e a ordem. Um agradecimento especial para o colaborador Saul, ele foi muito gentil, acolhedor e um excelente profissional!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Firstly, the communication was abysmal. I tried calling the hostel multiple times before my arrival, but no one answered,they were unhelpful and seemed disinterested. This lack of communication left me feeling stranded and uncertain about my accommodation. Upon arrival, I rang the doorbell for more than 30 minutes, but no one opened the door. This let me decide to cancel my reservation. Overall, my experience with Help Your Self Hostel was one of the worst experience I ever had. The pounication, lack of basic hospitality. I would strongly advise against staying at this hostel and recommend finding a more reputable and well-managed accommodation option.

Avoid at any cost if you can. They make you get bounced around between Expedia and them and simply do not care about the customers. This was the worst experience we have had during any of our trips worldwide. We should have looked closer at the other reviews before we booked here.

Achei bem limpo, a localizacao foi boa o pastel de Belém, Jerónimos, torre de Belém 20 min andando. O uber em. Portugal é barato vale a pena.a coisa que nos encomodou bastante foi a cama que por ser de ferro fazia muito barulho quando a gente se mexe e o banheiro poderia ter alguns ganchos para pendurar nossas coisas. No mais gostei da estadia, foi a opcao mais barata de Lisboa.
