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.

Ao chegar, foi avisado que eu deveria deixar uma taxa de 10 euros como garantia para caso eu perdesse a chave do quarto. Ao fazer o checkout as 11:00, não havia ninguém na recepção para me devolver a taxa, tive que ligar para um número que encontrei no Google para que alguém viesse me atender. Isso as 11:20 da manhã.

Lo venden como apartahotel y es mentira, es una pensión, una casa comunitaria. Pero lo peor sin duda ha sido el trato recibido, totalmente despectivo desde el primer momento.

Disliked: Room comfort

Regular, baja relación calidad-precio

Pagamos una habitación privada con 4 camas (2 literas). Los baños son compartidos (aunque no lo especifica la publicación). Hacia frio en Lisboa, y la ventana de la habitación no podía cerrarse del todo, y no tienen calefacción así que pasamos mucho frío. Pasamos muy poco tiempo ahí, el personal y le atención bastante promedio, la limpieza no muy buena. Pero por el costo que tiene, no puedes esperar mucho más. Francamente no regresaremos.
