Very nice property…just outside of the busier areas of Porto so much quieter. Lovely garden area with hammocks, flameless candles, a bar, etc…and a very sassy cat! Good breakfast too. Everyone was very kind and everything was very clean

Really good hostel about 2 blocks from Santa Catarina. Breakfast is available and if you reserve the night before you get a discount. Hammocks in the backyard provide a relaxing and cool spot for after all the walking you would have done while exploring the city. Bathroom inside the rooms was really clean and convenient. Pods for privacy and the availability of locker was all good. Overall good hostel, would likely stay again if price was right.

너무 좋아요. 어반 가든 호스텔 💜
긴 여행을 했어서 숙소의 청결도는 매우 중요했어요. 몇년 전에 이 호스텔을 갔다온 여행광 친구의 추천으로 고민 없이 어반 가든 호스텔을 선택했어요. 15일정도 있었는데 대만족 입니다. 1. 매일 오후 깨끗하게 청소합니다. 2. 정원에서 보내는 예쁜 시간이 행복했어요. 처음 만나는 친구들과 정원에서 재미있게 이야기하며 즐거웠어요. 3. 직원들이 친절하고 좋아요. 늘 배려해주고, 도와줍니다. 4. 메인 스트릿, 볼량시장과 가까워요. 5. 조식이 괜찮아요. 또 포르투를 간다면 여기에 또 가고싶어요. 멋진 오너 줄리앙과 나이스한 데이빗에게 안부를 전합니다.

Piso do quarto vibra quando pessoas andam
Pela terceira vez hospedei-me neste Hostel tendo em vista sua qualidade, entretanto desta vez decepcionei-me com o quarto maior no último andar. O piso vibra quando as pessoas andam o que faz sentir quando estamos deitados. Com janelas para a rua, o barulho é um incômodo. Preferível quarto com janela para o jardim.

Sauberes Hostel mit tollem Garten
Das zur Stadt fußläufig gelegene Hostel macht einen sehr sauberen und gepflegten Eindruck. Die Badezimmer werden mehrfach am Tag gereinigt und die Gemeinschaftsräume sind immer ordentlich und aufgeräumt. Zusätzlich hat man die Möglichkeit, im wunderschönen Garten des Hostels zu sitzen und an der Bar etwas zu trinken. Das ist sehr gemütlich und preislich angemessen. Auch hat man einen Supermarkt und weitere Einkaufsmöglichkeiten direkt um die Ecke. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Lediglich ein Bett direkt neben den Badezimmern ist unangenehm, da das Licht automatisch gesteuert wird und nicht alle Gäste die Badezimmertüren ordentlich schließen und man somit direkt vom Licht angestrahlt wird. Grundsätzlich ist es jedoch ein Hostel, in dem man sehr gut für einige Nächte übernachten kann. Empfehlenswert!
