ผผู้เข้าพักI chose Rosalma Hostel mainly because of its very convenient location. However, female travellers may want to be aware of a few things before booking.
The female dorms were fully booked when I stayed, so I booked a mixed dorm. The toilets and showers are mixed-gender, and the shower cubicles are very small, with little space to change. On a few mornings, I encountered male guests entering the area wearing only underwear before showering. Although they were simply using the facilities, I found the arrangement uncomfortable and would have preferred more private or female-only shower facilities.
More importantly, after my first night, I developed swelling, pain and blisters on exposed areas of skin, including my arms, neck, ankles and the tops of my feet. After returning to London, I showed the affected areas to three pharmacy staff members at Boots, who independently said that the symptoms were consistent with bed bug bites.
I cannot confirm that the hostel was the source, as I travelled elsewhere during the trip. However, given the timing and the pattern of the bites, I think the hostel should thoroughly check the relevant beds and rooms.
The location is convenient, but female travellers who prioritise privacy and cleanliness may want to consider these points before booking.
SSandra SarnataroLa struttura è in pieno centro; in una posizione comoda che permette di girare tranquillamente a piedi.
È generalmente tutto pulito, sia la hall che la stanza.
La foto dell’inserzione trae un po’ in inganno, la stanza assegnatami era più piccola di quella in foto e al posto del balconcino c’era solo una finestra, ma era comunque una stanza molto luminosa
Durante il mio soggiorno l’ascensore era guasto ed è stato un disservizio importante: la hall è al 3 piano e le stanze all’ultimo (5) quindi è un fattore da prendere in considerazione
YYusuke KagaMe alojé en Supernova Hotel en Oporto y, en general, fue una buena experiencia.
Las camas compartidas no tienen cortinas ni separadores para mayor privacidad, pero las sábanas y la ropa de cama estaban limpias.
No hay cocina, pero el personal de recepción es muy amable: pueden calentar la comida y te prestan cubiertos si los necesitas.
En conjunto, una estancia agradable y recomendable.
VVirus-97Arguably the best hostel experience ever. From the check in to the free breakfast and lockers. The bed was super comfortableand the shared bathrooms had enough privacy. I could leave my bags before check in for free. Walkable to the main attractions and close to the main shopping area. Definitely changed my mind about hostels.
ผผู้เข้าพักDía lluvioso que hizo mi llegada a Oporto ver una ciudad muy triste pero seguía siendo increíblemente bonita.
Susana, la persona encargada del Hostel a mi llegada, fue lo mejor de la estancia, amable, sonriente, me hizo el recordar que, aunque haya días así, el sol siempre está. Repetiré sin duda.
Recomendación: llevar tapones siempre: escoger una habitación femenina par evitar los ronquidos es una ilusión. Nosotras también roncamos😂
