Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt. Das Zimmer war wirklich groß und einfach eingerichtet. Das Gebäude mit dem zugehörigen Garten ist sehr schön. Das Personal war sehr freundlich. Die Lage ist gut und die Innenstadt mit vielen Restaurants und Bars schnell fußläufig erreichbar. Uns hat vor allem der Garten mit den Gemeinschaftsräumen und der gut eingerichteten Küche gefallen.

10/10 Would sangria again

Such an amazing place to stay. Ronaldo and Johnno were really good fun and made us feel at home, as was the female receptionist but we unfortunately didn't get her name! Highly recommend "sangria night". Viktor the surf instructor was a really great teacher, and the prices were really reasonable. Everyone staying there chatted in the big garden and it was nice to meet such a great bunch of people

Stay was very nice and the reception girls were very helpful with new Covid documents for our upcoming travel to Italy. They also helped with logistics of baggage and assisted finding travel to Lisbon Airport. It is located just two blocks from the square. Metkets are close by.

The young woman who checked us in was extremely nice and helpfully with restaurant recommendations. The location of the Hostel is a short walk to town. There is not any onsite property parking. We lucked out and found a spot close by but I think that it could be difficult. The Hostel is on a busy road so there is road noise.

I was quite sick during my stay and I was also one of the only people in the hostel - the staff were so lovely and answered all my silly questions! There was the option to do laundry in other places near the hostel but I was unwell and the staff washed, dried and folded my clothes such a nice touch!!

A great place to stay at.

The hotel is located on a great place a few blocks away from the central in Ericeira with restaurats. Also close to a large supermarket. The personnel was very friendly and helpful. The kitchen was large, clean and had everything needed. All in all, a great place to stay at if you wish to enjoy Ericeira and everything it has to offer.

Just for the view

The room and the view were beautiful. But apart from the room being freezing when we arrived (it never got actually warm, but got better), there were ants everywhere, including in bed. In the morning we realised we unconsciously killed plenty of ants during the night as we were turning in bed and scratching our skin due to the ants tickling us. One of the glasses we were provided to drink water was also very dirty (looked like having sand and/or old food on it), but it was quickly replaced by the staff when we noticed. I was expecting a bit better, to be honest, for the price paid. It's worth for the ocean view.

The hostel was super central

The hostel was nice, but unfortunately Expedia was not. Expedia had wrong information on their website, so even though our order said we had a private bathroom/toilet, it did not. Expedia also wrote street parking available, so we weren't prepared on driving around in small streets for nearly an hour looking for parking. So all in all, our negative feeback go to Expedia for messing up, and apparently it wasn't the first time (from what the hostel manager could say). Poor customer service and no refund for the experience means we will not be using Expedia again. The hostel itself was nice, its backyard and terrace was a huge plus for us. It was very central, and the rooms had a really cozy feel. We stayed in a Basic Double Room (NO toilet) and the room was really cute.

Good for a hostel

For a hostel it's great. It was advertised as private bathroom and this was an error and hostel unable to move us. Overall clean and good private room, though no curtains meant the sun got you up bright and early. Great walking location from everything.
