Everything was excellent except for the luggage collection. They should partner with a company to facilitate their transport to travelers. Reception and breakfast were very late, they should start earlier.
Super

Very nice, clean and large hostel with a very pleasant garden. The staff however is not very welcoming.
Small hygiene problems about bed bugs found in the establishment… otherwise very nice place for a stay in Portugal
Correct. Average bedding.
Very pleasant reception staff, smiling and available for any information Large common area adapted to the public (practical kitchen, exterior, reception hall, etc.) Privacy in the bathroom to be desired (shower door that does not close which implies water leaks in the bathroom) Discomfort (toilets glued to the door, obligation to sit askew, transparent doors -> little privacy) We had a very pleasant stay in Porto.
Good !
The hostel is really spotless and comfortable, it is just 3 minutes from the Carolina Michaelis stop and in 10 minutes you are in the center. Furthermore Susana, the owner was really super nice and always available. Structure absolutely recommended!
Very pleasant
Personalized attention, flexibility to specific circumstances, clean, comfortable, welcoming common services with good benefits. The spacious sleeping rooms, very ventilated and comfortable!’ An accommodation in Porto, totally recommended!’
Nice hostel, well located, very nice staff, large rooms, only drawback: the breakfast hours (8:30-10:00) which could be extended as well as the closing of the kitchen and bathrooms.
10/10
The staff is very welcoming and concerned about the well-being of newcomers. The dormitories are spacious and even quite beautiful (the one we were in looked like a Haussmanian apartment). Breakfast is offered, and we eat very well! Nothing to say about the cleanliness of the showers and toilets. Note that the luggage deposit costs only €1 per day (in addition to lockers in the dormitory in which a medium-sized suitcase can fit). Only small downside: not quite located in the center, even if a metro station is 4 minutes away, and otherwise for those who don't mind walking, the Douro is just half an hour away. In any case, we warmly recommend the establishment!
We spent 2 nights at the hostel. Welcomed; everything is simple and well indicated. Just a small downside: the windows in the showers / toilets are not opaque enough.
Thank you very much to the staff, a very good welcome. I recommend this hostel. Clean, and very close to the metro.
Very well received, despite the checking time being exceeded. This hostel is well equipped and the staff is super nice
The manager of the hostel refused to let us go to the bathroom before leaving when I had to change my pants because they were broken. It's absurd, we had to leave quickly, I've never seen that. Unhelpful and false kindness. It was very cold in the room. Otherwise the hostel is well placed and the room good!
very clean, spacious room, large garden to rest and leave your bike in safety, decent breakfast, well placed 15 minutes walk from the city center. - very clean, spacious room, large garden to rest and leave your bike in safety, decent breakfast, well placed 15 minutes walk from the city center.
Very good hostel, very clean and nicely arranged. Very nice team and good advice. Breakfasts and towels provided. Close to all amenities, and downtown in 15 minutes walk. I recommend.
Thank you to the staff for the welcome and availability. We will come back :)
Pros: Clean room; beautiful decor; dining room and large garden The least: breakfast not so good (juice diluted with the practical water spread in Portugal); floute glass doors for toilets and showers! Everyone sees everything
I spent a night at So Cool Hostel and I’ve been amazed by the quality of this place. The hostel is lovely, clean, with everything you need! People working there are really nice and helpful too. I couldn’t have asked for more. It was definitely perfect :-)
