Hostel Cruz Vermelha

We're a group of 3 mid 20s Americans. We found the place to be decent for the price, but it's definitely not ideal. There is no A/C so it was very hot in the room. Our room was also right on the street which was surprisingly extremely loud. The rooms are very plain with white everything. I found a centipede in the room. Bathrooms are shared and the showers are extremely small and hard to use. The people on the 1st floor seemed to be the types of people you would expect at a red cross (old, sickly), but the hostel floor above had a few younger guests. There is very little space in the hostel--the number of rooms is very small. They DID NOT LET US CHECK IN EARLY but they did hold our luggage for us (unguarded and unlocked, however). Check in time is 2 and check out time is 12. The location of this hostel is great as it is only a 5-10 minute walk to the main drag on the river and the metro is only a 5-10 minute walk in the opposite direction. Overall, a decent place if you are not traveling alone and if you are on a strict budget.

Very clean, comfortable and modern. The staff was lovely and the location was great. There's a laundry place in the building, the ladies (who didn't speak English,but it we managed) will wash and iron your clothes. It's payed by kilograms, I would say it's a standard hostel price. It is facing a busy road,so bear that in mind,when booking. But don't let that stop you,just take some earplugs! 😆

We had a r ally big room for three adults and a small child. The location was perfect for us. Away from the busy, tourist center of Porto, but not to far for a walk to the center. A parking garage was close by. We stayed there for 2 days and that’s more than enough to visit Porto. Our room was at the front and if we looked outside we could see the other side of the river.

For the price, which is really cheap (single room for around 25 euros) there's nothing you can compare to them. Design is really creative and fun, the rooms are spacious and clean. Also, if they're fully booked, which is likely, they also own a villa, around 5 mins a Walking distance from the main building, where they have even nicer rooms at exactly the same price and distance from the center. BTW, location is amazing, just 5 minutes walking from the d. Luís Bridge, which is the ex libris of the city and of the river itself, connecting both cities to the other one's centre. Amazing place to sleep.

Really níce place. Probably the best price/quality hostel in Porto. The staff was very nice too. You are just 10min walking from porto. Free Wi-Fi
