I recently stayed at a great hostel in Porto called Coolhostel. My purpose of travel was to explore the city and do some sightseeing. I stayed for a week and had a fantastic experience. The location of the hostel was perfect, as it was centrally located and within walking distance to all the attractions. The room and bathroom were clean and well-maintained. One unique feature was that a friendly seagull greeted us every morning, which added a charming touch to our stay. Additionally, I appreciated the peaceful atmosphere, as there were no noises from the streets.
Totally recommend this hotel.

Limited number of bathrooms and strict kitchen hours. Some of the staff were not very friendly or helpful.

I recently stayed at a great hostel in the center of Porto for a few days. The room was spacious, clean, and had plenty of sockets to charge multiple devices at once. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect - just a short walk to the river bank. The renovated bathrooms were modern and the shower was excellent. Plus, the breakfast provided a good variety of options.
I would be happy to recommend this hostel.

The location of this hostel was perfect! It was close to the metro, shops, and restaurants, making it convenient to explore the city. We also enjoyed the fact that we had kitchen facilities, which allowed us to prepare our own meals and save some money. Best aspects: the location was great, with easy access to public transportation and amenities. Having the option to cook our own meals was a big bonus for us.
One downside of this hostel was the lack of an elevator. We had a room on the top floor, and carrying our bags up the stairs was quite a challenge, especially with children.

More hooks needed in the room.

I got great value for my money at Coolhostel with a cozy and clean room. The location was perfect, right in the lively town center but still peaceful. The staff was pleasant, always available, and the night porter was especially friendly and helpful.
The breakfast option could be improved with more variety, like adding some fruits and yogurts.
