Superb

Liked: This was my second time in this beautiful hostel and it was very nice again :)Very good location, comfortable beds, kind staff and breakfast are included. If you go for breakfast to some café, you would pay around 10€. Here you can choose what you want, how much you want, also can have free coffee. Don’t hesitate. I highly recommend

Liked: The hostel has a quiet and welcoming atmosphere, located in an old Port wine cellar, with charming decor at the entrance, including old bicycles that give the place a special touch.
Disliked: The hostel, despite having bicycles as part of the decor, didn't have a designated bicycle storage area. Unfortunately, the management didn't offer any alternatives either, only suggesting that we leave the bikes in the street.

Excellent service, excellent breakfast, excellent...

Liked: The staff, location, decor, and breakfast.
Disliked: Room was a lot smaller, you don't get what you think you reserved, or paid for, it is a gamble as to what private superior room with view you get per their staff. But according to their website, and Booking.com, we got a double room, not superior, and we reserved and paid for a superior room, and they kept trying to tell us it was a Superior room. False advertising. Also many steep stairs when entering building and our room was at the top of a staircase, literally the top step to the left with another small step into the room, one wrong move and you go all the way down, not safe. When we checked in the night staff on duty grumbled when he had to help us with our bags up the stairs.
