This hostel was the perfect base for our Lisbon adventure. It was in a good neighbourhood which felt safe to walk back to at night and there were shops, bars and restaurants to go to nearby. Our host Barbara was outstanding, offering us lots of advice about the city and making our stay very comfortable. We had a room looking out onto the river and the fifth floor view really did take our breath away when we got there the first night. We loved it!
The only thing I'll add is to remember that it is a hostel so don't expect luxury big rooms or shiny surfaces. Instead stay here for a unique space and great hospitality. It's also up five floors and a hill, but you'll find that normal in no time when you've wandered round the rest of Lisbon.
