Guest reviews
Fabulous
Liked: Great traditional hostel. The staff were nice and it seemed to attract nice people staying there. Easy walking distance to everything in the old city and to the Rede bus station. Good kitchen facilities which were well equipped. Breakfast is very basic but I didn't mind as it kept the costs down making it an excellent value accommodation option.
Disliked: Glad I had my eye mask as there was quite a lot of light pollution in the four bed dorm as it was a throughfare to another dorm. Apart from that, everything was good.
Good Location Inside the Walls of Evora
Liked: Right in the walls of the city, if you can find parking. If not, it's not that far to walk to parking outside the Walls and it's close enough to one exit so the walk is short. Nice common areas, good size kitchen and bathroom near room. They have a lending library and TV in common area.
Disliked: Was out on a top bunk because I was told the other beds (8 in room) were taken. However night came and three bottom beds went unused? Not sure what the hiccup was. Everything else was fine.
Liked: Kitchen access was good and value for money for the location and breakfast. Staff was nice and helful!
Disliked: I chose 4 bed dorm, first i was put in 6 bed dorm and then i was put in a dorm which had entrance to the another 6 bed dorm, so basically even less privacy for the 4 bed dorm than 6 bed. there were some stairs inside the room, which led to haunted window, which was unattended and open and nobody cared about it. Also, if female traveller is in trouble nobody is there to bother about it.
Ok
Liked: The.hostel is nice (nice living room and garden), the girl from reception was nice, the location is great, and breakfast is ok (bread, Nutella, jam, cheese, jam, yogurt, milk and juices,there was no fruit).
Disliked: I think it was expensive for what it was. The wifi just work in the living room, the beds were ok, but no curtains nor individual lights, you don't have were to hang your clothes in the shower (this could be fixed by little money)
Liked: Locatiom, staff, dorm by gender, late checkin
Disliked: Rooms are cold, no coffee machine, poor breakfast options, flooded shower
Great value for money
Liked: -The location is great, in the center but close to a hypermarket and regional bus station. -The kitchen is well-equipped. -The checkout time is luxurious (12.00) and the fact that you can still make use of the shared kitchen and living room is splendid, especially when waiting for transport or leaving your heavy luggage to pick up later. -Free coffee and tea are a small luxury that increases the comfort of your stay tremendously.
Disliked: -Just a minor thing: I was staying in a women's bedroom that was connected to another one. During the night people could wake you up by going to the bathroom and so on. -At my common bathroom there was only one shower that worked. I was lucky to be there during off-season but I can imagine that during the high season it might prove a bit frustrating to be having to queue for one shower.
