My stay at the hostel was very good. As soon as I arrived, I was given a tour and offered a drink. Before I took this trip, I was a bit nervous about traveling alone, but this hostel gave me a completely different perspective. The people staying there are brought together in a very family-like atmosphere.

Friendly personal and all really clear: my private room, kitchen and all other things. Nice idea to create a chat of people who live there in the moment and connect them in every day dinner, football watching or party, I like it.

We enjoyed our 2 night stay so much. The location is just perfect, there is a free car parking nearby which makes everything smooth. Meerkibe is such a lovely person who tries to help where he can. I stayed with 3 small kids which was not a problem at all. We enjoyed talking to other guests and learned a lot about where to find the best beaches.

The manager was so nice, he answered all our questions and gave us many advices on exploring the city. He helped us find our ring which was forgotten in the room and put our luggage in the lounge. The hotel is centrally located, by a very short time reaching the port and the train station. There were many stores and restaurants around the area.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This was the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in, the decor was simply beautiful and it had such a nice vibe. It was really well equipped and very clean. The staff were so friendly, especially Maria who was so warm, welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived! Really good value for money, I couldn’t recommend this hostel more! I will definitely be back. Thanks again to Maria for her kindness and hospitality ❤️

    Casa da Madalena is in a great location, especially for the airport to hostel bus, no. 16, as well as the boats to the islands and old town. Very friendly and helpful staff who named a few local authentic restaurants to eat very good food. Safe and relaxed atmosphere and easy to chat to other travellers. Pancakes great of course, and a nice way to meet everyone and have small talk or make plans for the day.
