Unbelievable location which is a brief 5 minutes walk from the centre of town. The hotel/hostel is opposite a viewing station with panoramic views across the whole of Lisbon.

The location is good in the center. The breakfast is really good, especially for a hostel. I found the hostel a bit expensive for the quality of the room and bathroom. 3 bunk beds on each other are not ideal, since they were also squeaky. The showers were in seperate room with only curtains. The toilets seemed to be a bit broken and small. It's not well isolated so you easily hear quite easily the noise from the surrounding bars.

The beds didn’t have individual curtains so no intimacy which was a bit weird, especially in mixed dormitories… Bathrooms are a bit small but it’s fine it wasn’t too crowded at the hours I needed to use them

Location, breakfast and staff were very good.
The beds were wooden and made a lot of noise because they were 3 floors. There was no chair or armchair to sit in the room. Toilets and showers were small. after the toilets were cleaned, someone locked the doors and everyone had to use one toilet. :)
