Awesome stay
The place is nice, close to the city center (there is a bus line taking you there directly but it's also posible to walk there and see the city). The staff is nice, girl who worked there the first day was really cheerfull and helpful, ready to give you tips to see in a city. Rooms are clean and nice, just like in the pictures. I highly recommend the hostel.

Kiwi's in Porto
Arrived in car and found a road side car park easy enough. Staff very helpful with check in. Location is excellent, right by river, great views from our riverside apartment. Exterior is typical Porto grungy - very cool. Inside is modern and spacious. Fantastic

Simple but nicely run hostel and apartments
Hostel staff were very helpful and friendly. Booked an airport transfer which was good value and saved the hassle of public transport. Free wi-fi. Apartment included a fully functioning kitchenette with fridge, hub and oven. It was also cosy and bright. They also included some nice welcoming touches - bottled water in the fridge and a bottle of wine.

Appartamento comodo, posizione centrale, facilità di trovare parcheggio nelle vicinanze ma zona molto trafficata. Al nostro arrivo siamo stati informati che la lavatrice era guasta e quindi non utilizzabile.

Para no volver jamás!!
Horrible!!!!!!!!! El dueño del establecimiento un impresentable. Nos trató fatal y nos tuvo más de 5 horas en la calle sin dejarnos entrar por un problena totalmente ajeno a nosotros. En la habitación cuidado: CHINCHES!! Varios niños amanecieron llenos de picaduras. La luz del baño no iba, la ducha se salía el agua, camas y sobre todo la almohada incomodisimas. No repetiríamos ni locos.

Traumhafte Lage am Flussufer
Das Apartment war klein, aber sehr sauber und mit allem notwendigen Komfort ausgestattet. Die Altstadt von Porto ist in ca. 10 min zu Fuß erreicht, die Anbindung an den ÖPNV ist durch die Buslinie 500 gewährleistet. Durch die Lage direkt am Fluss kommen insbesondere Läufer auf ihre Kosten: In 5 km Entfernung wartet die Douro-Mündung in den Atlantik und der Leuchtturm von Porto auf.

Grazioso appartamento vicino al fiume e al centro
Abbiamo soggiornato 2 notti in questo ostello, in un monolocale con vista fiume, semplice ma grazioso. Personale molto cordiale e disponibile, pronto a dare consigli sulla città. Posizione eccellente, comodo per la possibilità di usufruire della cucina dell'appartamento, dotato di tutto il necessario. Solo la pulizia potrebbe un po' migliorare, ma comunque sufficiente.

Me senti em casa.
Gostei muito da forma que fui recebido é tratado no hostel. Uma moça chamada Talita e um rapaz que se chama Rui, me receberam com muito carinho e atenção. Eles fizeram de tudo para que eu estivesse bem e foram muito gentis e agradáveis. Eu realmente me senti em casa!
