Guest Reviews
- Anabela (8/5): - A simpatia e o quarto Muito barulho fora de horas
- Nicolas (5/5): No volvería - La ubicación y la vista están bien. Lástima que está como abandonado. El hostel está como abandonado. Hay una sola persona encargándose de todo y se nota que no
- Julles52 (1/5): HORRÍVEL! - Não me importo minimamente que um hostel seja simples, porque compreendo perfeitamente o conceito desse tipo de alojamento. Porém, limpeza é o mínimo indispensável, e infelizmente esta foi, sem dúvida, a pior estadia que já tive.
Desde o momento em que cheguei era evidente a falta de limpeza no local há bastante tempo. As escadas estavam extremamente sujas, cheias de poeira acumulada, assim como o dispensador de desinfetante. Não era “sujidade de um dia”, era claramente falta de manutenção e limpeza contínua.
Os vidros estavam nojentos, completamente marcados e encardidos, e não por causa da chuva, mas por ausência total de limpeza. A sala de convívio estava em condições desagradáveis: o forro do sofá estava sujo e cheio de migalhas de comida. Essas mesmas migalhas já estavam lá quando cheguei e permaneceram exatamente iguais no dia seguinte, o que confirmou ainda mais a ausência de limpeza do espaço.
À noite tentei aquecer comida no micro-ondas e percebi que estava extremamente sujo, sem condições mínimas de utilização. Acabei por preferir ir dormir sem comer porque simplesmente não consegui usar aquele micro-ondas.
Na manhã seguinte comuniquei a situação à host, que foi sempre muito simpática, educada e acessível. Ela pediu desculpa e limpou o micro-ondas. No entanto, enquanto esteve no local, percebi que apenas limpou as casas de banho. Toda a restante sujidade que já existia desde o dia anterior continuou exatamente igual: escadas, sala de convívio, mesas, dispensador, etc. Isso confirmou completamente a sensação de que praticamente não existia limpeza regular naquele hostel.
Como tinha reserva para três noites e não conseguiria permanecer num ambiente daquele estado, fui eu própria buscar materiais ao armário da limpeza e limpei o corredor do meu quarto, a sala de convívio, as mesas e até o micro-ondas novamente, porque a limpeza feita não tinha ficado em condições. Só assim consegui sentir-me minimamente confortável para continuar hospedada.
- Tamara (8/5): Todo bien - La anfitriona es muy amable
- Maria (1/5): -
- João (5/5): - Location, staff. Small shared restrooms, poor sound insulation, no towels (not sure about availability since it was a self check in). Kitchen not clean enough.
- Albino Leonardo (5/5): - Da localizacao. É um local que devido ao mau tempo e também ao desinteresse em manter o negócio em funcionamento estava ja bastante degradado.

- Samuel (10/5): - Great staff
- Félix (4/5): - sanitários limpos e chão limpo. limpeza geral, limpeza do quartos e das camas, falta de climatização. a precisar de intervenção de remodelação.
- Fall (10/5): - Muy bien Todos bien
- Sylvia (9/5): - Tolle Terassen ruhige Lage Duschen und WC sind erneuerungsbedürftig
- Marike (8/5): - Geweldige terrassen met uitzicht op zee. En een hele vriendelijke vrouw die ons hielp. Goed uitgeruste keuken. Er stond een bedlampje, maar er was geen stopcontact. Er was maar een stopcontact in de kamer, dat vonden we wat mager

- Ana Cristina (7/5): Vacaciones en Figueira con familia - Ubicación estupenda. Piedad y Luis muy amables, cualquier cosa que necesitábamos nos la proporcionaban. Habitación pequeña y cómoda. Terrazas del hostal muy buenas vistas. Disponibilidad frigorífico y cocina compartido. Las flores y plantas alrededor muy agradables. Sugerí indicación del número de la habitación en las baldas de la cocina, porque tuvimos problemas con varias personas, que cogieron cosas nuestras. Tal vez debería estar más claro indicado. A pesar de las indicaciones escritas sobre silencio a partir de las 22h, no fue así, aunque eso es educación de los huéspedes, no del hostal.

- Nádia (8/5): - Localização otima Senti falta de uma mesinha para colocar coisas...
- Andreia (1/5): Não recomendo, péssima experiência!! - Não gostei de nada Não gostei mesmo, falta de tudo!! O quarto pequeno para ter duas camas, o tecto baixo...Com uma pequena janela sem privacidade nenhuma, abres a janela não consegues baixar a cortina, nem ar condicionado,nem ventoinha para arejar, fora o calor abrasador tens o ataque de melgas, péssimo! Uma única ficha para carregar os tlms, a extensão para ligar o candeeiro avariado.. O chuveiro só dá água quente, os secadores de cabelo estragados só para a foto. Não deram toalhas, faltou papel higiênico!! Cá fora mesas de piquenique bem velhas e o jardim bem descuidado,o estendal só encontrei no último dia. Uma menina queimou-se com água quente nem a mala dos primeiros socorros tinha!! A recepção está sempre fechada,a Srª só aparece para os novos clientes,Péssimo, não recomendo a ninguém!! As fotos enganam muito!!
- ALEXANDRA PAZ (7/5): - Queda cerca la playa, se puede ir caminando y son 7 minutos aprox. El lugar estaba permanentemente abierto, no había mucha seguridad en ese sentido.
- Aurelie (8/5): -
- Jean-Michel (9/5): -
- Bruna (9/5): - A cozinha boa, a varanda maravilhosa, o quarto bem confortável, iluminado e limpo. O staff é extremamente simpático. Falta cortina nas camas para mais privacidade, os lockers são muito pequenos e a limpeza da sala de tv deixou a desejar.
- Oleksandr (10/5): Exceptional -
- Caterina (8/5): Nice staying close to the beach - Ten minutes from the beach, kind and flexible host, nice terrace, common space and garden! There is no washing machine,which for us travelling by bike would have been a useful plus (we had to find for an external one).
- Amir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Molle (9/5): Superb -
- Rui (10/5): Excellent value for money hostel with a great location and friendly staff. - Excellent location with everything within walking distance between 5 (beach) and 20 minutes (shops/restaurants). Great view of the ocean from the 2nd-floor balcony. I would have liked the shower water to have been slightly hotter.
- Rafael (6/5): Pleasant -
- Nadia (7/5): Good - Nice view and top floor lounge. Good to have a kitchen. Host was communicative. A bit run down. Noisy room due to the windows opening next to other rooms. Low roof.
- Lily (10/5): Warmest welcome and lovely clean hostel, 10/10 would recommend. - The property was clean, well presented and in a good location very close to the beach. For the great value price, you can’t ask for anything more, especially the lovely terrace with an ocean view.
Special mention to Piedade who was so incredibly warm and welcoming that it felt like home, she is a credit to this establishment and would recommend this hostel just because of her excellent customer service. I will definitely be back, thank you Piedade 😊 There’s very little not to like.
- Potyra (10/5): friendly - calm safe
- Sergey (7/5): It was just ok - Lady was nice No towels in shared bathroom . The reusable was dirty. Small room with small window. No air circulation
- Laura (9/5): Superb - The staff were super friendly. The hostel is clean and tidy with lovely social areas. The views from the roof terrace were lovely. The outdoor area where you could eat was also really cute.
- Max (7/5): Good -
- Rui (10/5): Exceptional -
- Xulia (8/5): Very good - The lady at the reception was very kind when I requested the bottom bed she did her best to try to accommodate my needs.
The location was really nice, a house with a backyard on top of a hill. Peaceful place in the middle of town near the beach.
The mattresses where comfortable and I liked a lot the roof top and that i could use a kitchen and cook It would be nice to have curtains in the bunk beds for more privacy. Also , if there was people in the room who stayed a few days they won't vacuum or swap the floors and people go to the beach so it was quite sandy all around. I did not like that every time a new person came in I was told I cannot lock the door of my room. I had to leave my things there and leave but the door must remind open....I did dont understand why if I have a key I could not use it.
- Rui (7/5): Good - It was a bit noisy sometimes, at night, and there was nobody from the stuff to address this issue.
- Michelle (8/5): Very good - Pia the organiser and lady there was so helpful & friendly. I loved her personality and really loved her positive upbeat spirit. For 1 or 2 nights in a dorm it was amazing for me :) Would highly recommend it thanks Pia I'll be back 🙂💕Xx
- Emily (7/5): Nice little place in a beachy town, close to train and beach😀 - This was a cute little property, friendly owner and nice facilities and outlook. It was basic but all we needed for one night! It was in a good location to walk around the area too. The shower pressure wasn’t great but not the end of the world!
- Raquel (8/5): Quiet hostel by the beach - The owner was absolutely lovely and easy to communicate. Easy access by car with parking just outside.
Bedroom was clean and comfortable.
Nice balcony with a view. Kitchen seemed complete but didn’t take advantage of it. Internet speed is super slow (signal is good, so might be area related)
- Peter (8/5): Nice youth hostel. - Nice youth hostel with goos kitchen and living space. All good.
- Özdemir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aurelija (8/5): It was a nice stay. - The bedroom was clean. There wasn't a lighter in the kitchen so I couldn't light the stove.
- Agnieszka (7/5): Very nice stay - Very nice staff, available for check in at any time. Good common space with terrace with sea view.
Quite clean spaces. Garden space and kitchen available for guests. Bathroom on the first floor is small and the one with shower has no ventilation so becomes very humid. Room needs some wall painting as well in my opinion.
- Alex (8/5): Very good -
- Svetlana (4/5): Disappointing - Near the Buarcos center It was extremely hot in the room and absolutely no fresh air as the window in the ceiling is too small and the water was dropping through it; the shower and toilet are in bad condition
- Kristina (5/5): Passable -
- Anonymous (7/5): It is what it is - Location Noisy
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional - It's a very nice hostel with a perfect location near to sightseeing spots, the beach, supermarkets. Even surfing at the other beach is possible Since the hosts help you to get in contact with a surf school, which picks you up for the lessons. Great! The hostel ist well equiped, has nice terraces and outdoorspace. I really enjoyed the stay. The hosts are very kindhearded and help you with nice tips around figuiera. Thank you.

- Johanna (8/5): good - very good hostel, very clean, full equipment in the kitchen, a little far from downtown. feel good and safe like home. nice view to the beach ! I give a middle note to the equipment because the door wasn’t working. I send a message about it, but they didn’t answer me back ! so It is a key point to be able to close the door, I wasn’t able to close the door only my boyfriend was able to do.
