Very young atmosphere there. Hot tea and coffee for free all day long. Have some fruits also. Good breakfast. I love to have a curtains to have more privacy. The location is just in-front of the Cathedral. And during the day is awesome. But I would not suggest to walk outside along after a sunset. It s a very tricky Neighbourhood.

Super comfy bed, nice shower! Miguel was super helpful! It was nice to be able to use our phone to unlock doors. We were not planning to use the kitchen but since the facilities were so good and the grocery store just around the corner, we decided to cook our last meal there! Great stay!

I recently stayed at O’LOPO hostel and it was awesome! I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a long or short term stay in Porto. One of the standout features of O’LOPO hostel is its fantastic atmosphere. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by a warm and friendly staff who made me feel right at home🫶🏻They were always available to answer any questions I had and went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms and common areas were always spotless, and the staff made sure to maintain a high standard of cleanliness throughout my entire stay. Good showers with hot water and good pressure. The kitchen was a big plus. It has everything you need. I saved money by cooking my own meals. The location was perfect, O’LOPO hostel is conveniently situated within a 10-minute walk of supermarkets, laundry, cafes, and both bus and train stations. This made it incredibly easy for me to explore Porto and its surrounding areas. Additionally, the hostel is located in a quiet area, and I always felt safe even when returning late at night. The only noise you can hear is your neighbors, everything inside the hostel is quite audible.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    The beds were comfy and bathrooms were really good, great facilities and very clean. It was also quiet so you could get a good night's sleep, seemed to be mainly an older crowd, people doing the Camino de Santiago rather than party, so that was a plus for me. All in all, great value for money, one of the best hostels I've stayed in for the budget range.
