It is located in a calm, clean and quiet street. I was given a warm reception. I was picked up in a car from the bus station at no extra cost and was warmly welcome into the property. My birthday fell within the week of my stay and I was surprised to get a nice Portuguese snack to celebrate my birthday by the hosts. The pastel de nata (Portuguese local snack) and orange juice was a great one. I can't stress this enough, the staffs are extremely accommodating and helpful. Ready to help you with anything within their means, also gave me a great boat ride recommendation to Ponta da Piedade, totally loved it. Y'all rock!

My room was always clean and tidy, as was the rest of the hostel, the staff were always very helpful and polite, the breakfast was incredible. The only thing I missed was having a locker to store my things, but there was a wardrobe, and the bedroom door was locked with a key, so ok.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Perfect location for exploring Lagos. 6-bed female dormitory was stunning. Shared areas are also very nice. Facilities are clean & well maintained. Atmosphere is laid-back but still friendly & easy to meet people. Staff are welcoming & very helpful! Easily the best hostel I stayed at in all of Portugal
