Lisbon Calling Hostel

I was obsessed with the quadruple room/frescos room we booked. It absolutely gave Portuguese vibes and was so spacious. The huge windows let in tons of light and air, it's in a great location (right across from Time Out Market), and the decor was just gorgeous. The two single beds were not very comfortable, but my friend and I just shared the double. My favorite part was probably the bathroom which was also huge, everything was just really well decorated and the shower was so nice. ||You only have to walk up one set of stairs when coming in, then there's an elevator. The girl at reception (Maria) was really nice and sent us a bunch of local recommendations that we used. The common kitchen was pretty cool too, I liked the archway area at the back, and there was free coffee. Was definitely sad to leave when our three nights in Lisbon were over!

Sewage leaking through the wall!!! The bathroom had sewage water flowing through the wall, it stunk like grey water. The staff kept sopping it with towels. ||They were also suppose to change our sheets after 3 nights, they did not. They were suppose to supply fresh towels, they did not. The stink and humidity was disgusting and unsanitary. Do not stay here!!!!||Photos show a slime coming out of the walls, likely from a sewer pipe from a unit above, they blamed it on a “leaky roof”. But it did not rain for all the days we were there, and the leak got worse in the evenings.

Lovely hostel close to Cais do Sodre Metro station and a 2 minute walk from Time Out Market. Our room was very large with lots of space for four of us and was very comfortable. Nice 'living room area and well equipped kitchen. They were also happy for us to drop off our luggage before check-in time. As we were leaving early in the morning, they prepared a breakfast for us the night before which was really appreciated. The only downsides were that our room was at the front of the hostel and it's a lively, noisy area at night so there was a bit of disturbance late at night and although there's a lift there are still some steps to climb at the bottom and the top to reach the hostel. Overall though, a very good deal in a city where accommodation is generally expensive.

Our room was huge with really quirky artwork and furniture. Location is great, Time Out market across the road, metro/train station behind that then then you are on the waterfront. Lots of bars and restaurants in the area and a tram stop just a few steps away. ||The communal kitchen is really clean and has great facilities. The breakfast was a perfect little start to the day, toast, cheese, jam, fruits and yogurt. Tea and coffee are available all day. We had a private external bathroom; it was across the lobby but this was not an issue as there are only a few rooms, so the communal areas were always quiet. We were given a key for the bathroom, but we did not bother locking it as the building felt very safe. ||The only downside is the noise. Double glazing does block out most of the road noise but when a tram goes by the building shakes. Other guests can be heard coming in and out, we were lucky that most people were conscious of this. ||Vera was so helpful, she sent us local recommendations and let us store our bags before check in and after check out. For the price this is a great place to stay, in a good location with handy facilities. |

Perfectly located, beautifully decorated, nice breakfast! We booked a private room which was VERY spacious. Welcome desk is only open at certain times but contact to coordinate luggage drop-off was easy. Only point to improve: shower drainage and give those plants a bit more love

We had a lovely stay at calling||Lisbon. We stayed for 4 nights, the staff were very helpful and friendly.||The area surrounding was very busy and lots of life to it. I would say this property is a mix between a hostel and a bed and breakfast. The breakfast is very limited, just toast or cereal or yogurt. The private bathroom was external from the bedroom (which we knew! but you did have to walk across the hall way/lobby to get to it, which sometimes was awkward- the building is old and really pretty but the soundproofing is non existent, so you can hear everything on the street and in the room next door and in the hallway and lobby. So if anybody goes to the toilet at night you hear the floor boards creaking!||||I would say just bring some good ear plugs. Our room was the blue room and was really lovely, bed was super comfy and big. The room overall was great and could be cool or warm depending on what you want. There is a little window at the top of the door so if you are on the top bunk you can see the lobby and it does let light through - this could easily be sorted with a little blind for night time - I also think a small bin for the room would have been good. The bathroom itself was great with two showers, two toilets and a sink - very spacious and clean! Overall we enjoy our stay with the place being very friendly and charming.

Great hostel! We stayed 3 nights as a family of 4. The room was huge and beautiful! We had a bathroom for us (across the floor) with 2 toilets and 2 showers! The breakfast was nice. We could also use the kitchen. The staff was friendly, gave us some helpful ideas for sightseeing. She provided us with extra warm blankets for the kids, when we asked. She responded always immediately to our messages. We can highly recommend this hostel!!! We would defenitely go to the same place again.

Great place to stay for little money in Lisbon! It’s very homey and clean. Nice service and easy check-in and check-out. Breakfast was included and it was pretty good! The location of the hostel is perfect, it was quiet but yet you are super central and all important places are easy to reach. Definitely recommend! 👍🏻

Super cute place! Fresh bread on your door each morning. Good location to public transports and there is even a small grocery store on the same block. I opted for the rock and roll themed room with a private bathroom. Comfy bed and a spacious room. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone passing through!
