Hostels in Portugal are in another league when compared to other European hostels. I was a little skeptic when every single hostel in both Lisbon and Porto were in the 90ś, but they deserve it. Poets hostel has a huge lounge, knowledgeable and friendly staff that have daily dinner parties, and comfy beds with tiny security lockers (but you can fit the essentials in them) underneath. Breakfast means cornflakes and toast with jam and marmalade with tea so pretty good. When youŕe first getting to Porto, find the Tower they are talking about and when you need to turn onto Travezz (or however you spell it), keep your eyes open because its a tiny alleyway!
Definitely coming back when I return to Porto. Drink as much wine as you possibly can while there.

Great hostel: Double rooms at 40 euros are great, a lovely balcony with great view on the Cathedral. Modern, quiet and very clean.

I was there for the weekend with my 22 year old daughter and we had the double room. It was the best place I have ever stayed. The staff were more than good, they made us feel welcome. The atmosphere was wonderful, we were invited for a meal there one evening too. The garden is just great, and what a view. It was so good we hardly felt like leaving to visit Porto. Well done.

Me gustaria destacar que el hostel esta bien ubicado a mi parecer, pero no son buenas las indicaciones para llegar y muy agotador el hacerlo ocn bolsos o valejasm alguien deberia advertir esto, por otro lado nos dieron una hora para el desayuno, las 8.00 hs pero eran las 8.30 y no habia pan ni otros ingredientes para el desayuno, yo tenia que tomar un micro 9.30 hs por lo que no podia quedarme a esperar esas cosas deberian estar previstas, como tambien avisar que las habitaciones son mixtas, por lo demas todo fue muy positivo.

Oporto Poets Hostel es el mejor hostal en el que me he hospedado!Los del staff son muy amables y simpáticos, y justo el dia que yo me hospede habian organizado una cena que era un pescado preparado en un salsa típica de Oporto y a un super buen precio. Yo viaje sola pero el hostal es muy seguro, me tocaron unos muy buenos compañeros de habitación y hay lockes gratuitos para dejer tus cosas, además de acceso gratuito a internet y el desayuno incluido en el precio!. El hostal estaba super limpio, los baños y las habitaciones impecables. Tiene una terraza con una vista increible. Es un poco dificil de encontrar el hostal al principio y esta en una colina, pero bueno en Oporto todo es subidas y bajadas! Esta muy cerca de la Torre de Clerigos y puedes llegar al rio muy rápido!Recomiendo ampliamente este Hostal y si yo volviera a Oporto definitivamente me volveria a hospedar ahi!!!!!! =)

Staff was extremely helpful in suggesting things to do. They also let us keep our bags there for the day after we had checked out because we had a late flight.
The hostel is in a great location. It's a little hard to find at first but once you get there its great. Great living room for everyone to hang out in. Staying in this hostel definitely made the trip that much better. Could not imagine a better place to stay.

Great little getaway place, nicely decorated, feels like a hotel almost.
But when I was there the people weren't exactly 'hostel' people. If you're looking to party and meet a lot of people, you won't get that here.
The view is great.
