Everything was great except the shower was a little annoying since you had to press every 45 seconds or so because it would turn off automatically. The breakfast wasn’t much of a breakfast ham and cheese, bread and cereal. Other than that the staff was friendly it was clean and it was in a cute little village.

For a large hostel property the mini fridge was a joke. How could such a large facility expect everyone to share a small bar fridge?

Chambre correcte, salle de bain problème handicapant pour se servir des robinets à poussoir surtout dans la douche. Chasse d’eau toilettes disfonctionnelle. La laverie en panne depuis plusieurs jours non signalée à la réservation, idem pour le lave-vaisselle.Espace cuisine sale et manque d’équipement notamment couverts. Parking privé bien et petit déjeuner bien.

Bonne auberge de jeunesse

Nous n’avons pas séjourné dans cette auberge de jeunesse, elle était une étape sur notre voyage. Nous avons été agréablement surpris par la propreté des lieux de notre chambre avec salle de bain privative.

La seule, mais vraiment la seule chose un peu décevante est la cuisine commune. Il manque de tout pour cuisiner et ce n'est pas très propre. Cela dit, concernant la propreté, c'est la faute des autres voyageurs!!

Conhecer interior de Portugal

Alijó foi uma desilusão, para não repetir. Encontramos apenas um sitio para jantar e era horrível. Localidade desinteressante em todos os aspetos. A Pousada vale a pena, pois tem um preço económico e é um edifício novo com condições adequadas.
