Matriz 55

Everything, location, the rooms, facilities, the owner, the staff.

I just don’t like my room mates because they don’t want to turn on the AC 😂

Pedro and Suzana are the nicest people you can imagine. The location is perfect. The room was nice, clean and comfortable.

Take into consideration that parking is a bit far and there are stairs leading to the rooms. If there are no accesibility problems, it doesn't matter.

Excellent staff, nice big rooms with firm good quality bed, nive breakfast and it has adorable house cats 🙏

Only potential issue for some people is that it has plenty of stairs, no elevator.

Central location, close to marina and most of touristic activities. Host is friendly and accommodating. 3 cats in the common area.

I wouldn't call this accommodation a hostel, because guests do not have access to kitchen or fridge. Rather it is a "budget-friendly" shared dorm. There are limited possibilities to dry one's beach towels and swimming suit. I would expect a drying rack on a balcony, but there are just 2 chairs: one chair per room (so, if you are unlucky, 8 people from 2 dorms will be competing for these chairs). Breakfast is served 8-10, and most group tours require meeting at 7-7:30, so I could eat the breakfast just once during my 5-night stay. It looks ok, but no hot meals (like eggs or sausages). Dorm price is a bit lower than at nearby hostels, but you will lose all that advantage by paying to eat out, because there is no possibilityto cook your own food. So I wouldn't stay more than 1 night if my booking was refundable. Unfortunately, I pre-paid all 5 nights and got stuck.
