It was clean, they also provided a towel and a locker. It’s really close to a beach and it’s in the centre of Lagos. Also people who were staying there were really open and warm and it’s really a solo traveller friendly hostel. Filipa is also really amazing hostess who is always ready to help everyone.

This truly is a magical place and the way a hostel should be. They managed to create a very homely and cosy environment with multiple places to hang out. You can easily see that this place is created with love and has a soul and an own identity (in contrary to all those generic soulless hostels). With setting an environment like this they attract a crowd from many different backgrounds and a wide range of ages. You immediately feel home and welcome. It is very easy as a solo traveller to meet people here and feel part of the community. Yes, they succeed in one of the primary functions of a hostel for me, creating an openminded and welcoming community. This is certainly in my top ten hostels worldwide.

    Really great location. The beach is a 10 minute walk and there are busses to Lagos and Portimão. The staff was really friendly and the facilities of the hostel were great: well equipped kitchen, large dorm, great common area. The hostel is cleaned every day by two very friendly ladies. Moreover, the price for a night was quite cheap which was totally worth it.

    This was one of the best hostels I stayed in. Must admit I hardly saw the other people in my dorm so it must have been a bit quieter when I stayed. It felt like I had a private room. Super clean. Great facilities. A pool, lounge and kitchen. Helpful staff. Really close to the bus stop to take you up to neighbouring beaches and Portimau marina for a catamaran cruise. Can’t fault it. Thank you.
