I can say that not always in the 5stars hotels you can find so clean environment. Everything is new. You have air condition and fan if you need. Hot water is always. You have a well equipped kitchen. Really an excellent place. It is also good for families of 5 (room has 5 beds).

    Great location that's central to everything and very helpful host. We stayed in a room that had three beds and 2 baths. Room was comfy, very clean and neighborhood was very safe. Loved the bar next door where you could get a pretty decent cup of port to go and water.

    The hostel is located right in the heart of the city. The staff is really friendly and trying their best to accommodate you even when there are language barriers. The kitchen is fully equipped but because of the many tenants there's not always a lot of room in the fridge. It's really cheap compared to the rest hostels in Braga.

    Very good value for money. Centrally located. English-speaking staff was always helpful. The facilities are newly built and kept clean. Breakfast is your typical continental with bread, salami, cheese, selection of yoghurts, spreads, coffee, tea and juice. Definitely good solution, if you are looking for a cheap, yet safe and well maintained hostel.

    Location could not have been better. We booked last minute and happened to be in Braga during the Roman festival which was awesome! Ana was incredibly helpful and made a v last minute trip a highlight of our time in Portugal so far. Despite all the buzz and excitement from the festival, the sound proofed rooms meant that we were not at all disturbed by it. Slept well. The building was easy for us to access but felt very safe and secure.

    One of the best hostels I've ever been to. The room was clean, there have been 8 people in one room, sharing one bathroom with a shower and toilet. Each bed had its own electric and USB outlet. The room wasn't big, but it was enough to stay the night. The staff in the reception was nice. I was able to store the luggage and pick it up later after check out.

    Turned from a former hospital into a beautiful place for guests this hotels contained many positive surprises, signaling the good taste of the interior designers. We had wonderful rooms, spacious and with a balcony. The pool was wonderful as was breakfast each morning! So many great delicacies to choose from and a lovely place to sit. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Safe parking. Great location to visit the beautiful city of Braga!
