Guest reviews
Very good
Would highly recommend, with some caveats
Liked: Loved the room!! It was tranquil and brought me peace. Loved the kitchenette and dining area as well.
Disliked: It was a challenge to get to from the train station for me, also steep stairs to carry luggage to and from. The host helped me up the stairs, thank goodness. It had a faint smell of smoke. Also feather bedding.
Exceptional and very comfortable! 10 points!
Liked: We stayed at Jorge’s hostel for a week and later extended for two more nights. The room was very clean, calm and bed were exceptionally comfortable to sleep. The house itself is very charming with cute living room and kitchen. Despite everything, the most wonderful was the host himself. During the stay we became good friends and felt very privileged to listen Jorge stories about history of Sintra, Portugal and other countries. He is a very kind and intelligent person. We could not imagine a better stay in Sintra. Definitely recommend and will be back again when we get the chance. Thank you very much! Best wishes:)
Liked: Jorge is so friendly and the hostel is so welcoming and cosy. Lots of great restaurants in the area.
Exceeded expectations, cosy, homely, welcoming
Liked: Felt like a cosy safe abode, slept better than I had in days, owner was INCREDIBLY friendly and welcoming. Shared toilet was exceptionally clean, the room was wonderfully decorated, excellent wifi. Reminded me of my childhood book angelina the ballerina; actually almost magical. Plus, there are numerous awesome food spots nearby! This hostel honestly deserves more than 1 star, it exceeded expectations incredibly. Recommend this to anyone.
Disliked: NA
Excellent place for one night stand in Sintra
Liked: The hostel is very cozy and warm, with unique atmosphere. The pictures available here do not give the uniqueness of the place. Beds in the room was very comfortable and large. Both room and bathroom were very clean. The owner was very friendly and helpful, when we were trying to get the parking place nearby the hostel, he even moved his own car to get us parked next to the entry.
Liked: Sintra Small Hostel has a very warm and cozy feel. The rooms are a nice size and very clean. Plenty of towels provided. Coffee and tea are available to make at any time in the kitchen, and George provides biscuits/cookies too. He let me use the washing machine and hang my clothes to dry too. The location of the hotel is nice too because it’s not in the center of town, so it’s nice and quiet. It’s about a 25 minute walk to the city center, but only a two minute walk to a few restaurants and coffee spots.
