Lisbon Calling

It's a fun property and with a unique decor and nice big rooms with tall ceilings and lots of space. The kitchen is really usable with pots and pans and everything you need. The staff is good. Not always super helpful with tips and things for Lisbon- they seemed short on time and not always willing to offer up suggestions when asked. Otherwise everthing was great.

I booked for the location and kitchen access and the unique decor, and was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room and the unexpected lovely view of the church and open square out my large windows. This is a quirky little find, and if you're ok sharing a bathroom, it's a solid find for a good value in a convenient neighborhood. I also loved how high the ceilings were and how much natural light it received in the day. The church lit up at night was another spectacular view right out the window. Lovely hosts. I'd recommend and potentially return myself!

I like this place very much, check in was very warm. I wished I remembered her name, she recommended me a few things and even a local flea market which was amazing. Just note, Expedia says to “collect payment on site” however my credit card was charged before I arrived. She was very kind to check things thoroughly and ensure I don’t get double charged. My room was lovely, I could look out to the streets and also hear the bells from the church or people watch from my window. Location is excellent as it’s so near to the main station Cais Do Sodré and time out market or anything else, so whenever I needed a break in between my day, I can always come back for a little refresh or washroom break. There are plenty of great restaurants nearby, and as it’s quite near the church at night it’s not loud and busy. So I slept well. Not at the hostel’s fault, however the hallways to the common area are slightly dark and as I am afraid of the dark… I always have to kinda mentally prepare myself before going to the washroom at night. Again, it’s a personal thing! Otherwise I absolutely enjoyed my time here. Great stay.

We had the Frescos room. It was beautifully decorated and huge, including the bathroom. There is no air conditioning but the windows open. Shared kitchen and refrigerator are very convenient. It can get noisy at night as there is much activity at street level. Convenient location situated behind Time out market and near Pink Street, near many bus stops and metro to Cascais.
