What albergue/hostal did you have a positive experience with in Porto? :)

Hola
Can you share your experiences as I am planning my next Camino.
I did read about a new place which a member posted in a thread, a cheap albergue/hostal with a nice homepage, but after trawling the forum without finding it again, I now post this thread.
Thank you very much.

Not the hostal Duas Naçoes !
Very noisy. People entering in the middle of the night , shouting, stamping on the uncovered wooden stairs, a room without windows. Stay away from there !
The second time we booked an appartment via Airbnb in Porto. Far better.
Third time booked hotel Central in Matosinhos. Excellent choice. Public transport(metro and bus ) allmost in front of the door to go to Porto.

We used the Tattva Design hostel, very nice and located behind the train station Estacao Sao Bento.

Not having stayed there yet, but found this Seminario de Vilar and have reserved 2 nights in September. Good location. Not cheap (25 euros/night), but private w breakfast included. Looks a bit of a fortress, so not a boutique, nor quaint. http://www.seminariodevilar.pt.vu

There is now a pilgrims albergue in Porto!

I think it has opened within the last few months.

I started in Porto on May 13. Stayed at a small hotel named Hotel Poivera across the street from the train station. Hotel kept my luggage for free. The room cost 50€. After completing my Camino, I returned to pick up my suitcase and the fellow charged me just 25€ To stay the night as he had late cancellations. Not an Albergue, but very reasonable and convenient.

I strongly recommend the Albergue de Peregrinos de Porto to
anyone starting their camino in or going trough Porto. This isn't just a place to stay and sleep. The owner and Hospitaleiro have been pilgrims and know, understand and care about your journey. They are helpful and get people to share and exchange thoughts . A wonderful warm place to stay in a beautiful but a bit impersonal city for aPilgrim.

There is a pilgrims albergue behind this seminario as well. You can stay only one night and I don't think you can reserve. You go in the door on the picture and they give you a key. You then walk down about a hundred steps into a peaceful green valley. I don't remember the cost but I think it was less than 10 euros. Very clean. Highly recommended.
