Lovely place, lovely people. Elvas is a great town with old fashioned hospitality. The restaurants serve traditional Portuguese food in a traditional environment and are great value. The forts are fascinating and interpreted well. All said, you could come just to stay in this Alojamento. It's sparklingly clean, great facilities and shared spaces and very nicely furnished. A great breakfast and super helpful owners and staff
Nothing, it was all great

Great location within easy walking distance of virtually everything we wanted to see and visit in this beautiful city. We could park our car in a safe and free parking lot only 3/4 minutes (walking) away from the hostel.
Easy and friendly check-in.
Nice, clean and comfortable room with its ensuite bathroom.
Excellent and generous breakfast with lots of choices.
Overall, we were delighted with our 2-night stay. Very Typical is great value for money. Highly recommended.

Bathroom smelled horribly of mildew.
Suggested at departure time that they wash the shower curtain. Otherwise, it was clean and lovely and quiet

Very comfortable and clean. Great location. All hostel space smelled really nice. Staff was very attentive and kind, always available. The rooms were very clean and sweat. We had private bathroom, AC and TV with many available channels. Bed was very comfortable. Absolutely no noise from the other rooms. Breakfast offered variety of coffee, juice, vegetable milk, bread, cake, croissants, fruit, etc. There was an outdoor space to enjoy the warm nights and to hang out with the cats.
Nothing to report really. Everything was great 5*

It very good location, the staff was very nice and helpful! The wifi was also good, could easily watch youtube videos. I stayed in a room with double beds and I had my own bathroom. The breakfast was normal but good :)

very good location. the Wi-Fi and breakfast were both good quality. Decoration of the place was spot on
The rooms were not sound proof and you could eat some noise from other guests
7.0 / 10.0
Very nice decorated. Good location. Charming old townhouse.
Nice staff. Nice kitchen.
Wasn't a fan of the separate private bathroom. The booking didn't mention this what I could see. I had a double room. Bathroom was noisy and with automatic lights which is an annoyance when going up in the middle of night, wakes you up.
And the stones in the sink was also annoying. And the bathroom smelled funky.
And the beds were really uncomfortable unfortunately.

Lovely location. Gorgeous house. Super staff. Nice breakfast. Beds sweet, but mattresses not good. Also, someone else’s air conditioner or other machine came on periodically throughout the night. The machine was on the terrace below our window. Periods of peace then periods of noise. A bit annoying. So not a good night. Otherwise, it was a super place to stay.
Please improve mattresses. Please remove or switch off machine on terrace which goes on and off through the night.

Gorgeous hostel renovated in a old building in the heart of Elvas. The love given to this place is noticeably the moment you step in. Great concept!!! Amazing old school deco. Cute outdoor area and common rooms! They have cats 😍 wandering around. Everything was spot on and pristine clean. Super comfortable bed with locker, electric outlet for each one. It was the best breakfast I had in any hostel I've visited (or accomodation for that matter). Many choices including fresh fruit and espresso coffee. Super friendly staff with nice welcoming check-in. Its my spot when I return to Elvas.
The shower room cabinet could be bigger... Although the bathroom was big on itself. But that's a small complaint.

The facilities are modern and the whole hostel has a very nice decoration and furniture. The rooms are also very spacious and very comfortable beds!
Breakfast was a buffet. There were many choices and even different sorts of cake and pastries!! For me as a vegan, there were still multiple options like bread, cereal and fruit. However, on top of that other vegan options like plant milks and soy yogurt was provided which I had never before seen in a hostel and was a really kind gesture. They went out and beyond and I had three amazing breakfasts!!
The best part of the hostel are the people that manage it. Extremely keen to help and full of kindness. Made the whole atmosphere of the hostel feel like home!! I was helped with transportation information, restaurant recommendation and was even driven to the two forts! The information and help was given in an always very whole hearted way.
Elvas is a beautiful city, and the people there have all been very welcoming. If you want to spend some of the best days, surrounded by genuine kindness and the best atmosphere, I recommend this place 100% :)☀️

It is right in the center, easy to find. The ambient, comfortable bed, toilet, quality of breakfast, tidiness, modern furniture, rooms with lockers, terrace, balcony plenty of space. The room is with air condition. The concept of this hostel is amazing and is modern. The owner of the property is helpful because we were late for two hours (almost midnight) for check-in but she welcomed happily. Provided information to travel. I would like to thank you again for waiting and giving us lift up to the Forte de Nossa Senhora da Graça.
Can't stay for more days. I would love to stay for a few days just being in the living room or in the peaceful balcony.
