–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- No parking on site — There's no dedicated parking at the hostel, so guests arriving by car will need to find public options nearby.
- Check-in window starts at 15:30 — Rooms are available from 15:30, which may be a wait if you arrive earlier in the day. The 24-hour reception does help with late arrivals.
- Some rooms lack air conditioning — While many rooms have A/C, the female-only 8-bed dorm is listed without it, which could be a factor during Lisbon's warm months.
