  : The location involved a steep gradient walk - that was probably the only snag. Otherwise it was decently signposted. Breakfast was satisfying ( I loved the fresh oranges juicing them ), the space overall was good, the mattress was fine although my power socket ( bed 10 room 1 ) was unusually placed and a little loose but worked. The place was very clean and felt much like a home. Bruno, Joana & Rosa made it all welcoming for - Joana taught me to use the kitchen stuff properly, I made a pot of steamed rice , Rosa met me in the morning once I picked up my key from somewhere upon advancing my ID as I was arriving around 1:30am when nobody was around & Bruno let me stay for a while after checking out and called a cab to the Guimares railway station ( 1.60 call fee & 4 for the distance & time ) - I headed towards Aveiro using my CP 72hr Tourist Card for Urban trains Urbanos. The Restaurant Penguin / Ristaurante Pinguim was right opposite where I could see it from the hostel's TV / Computer room desks and a good POI for GPS & cabs in order to find the place.

  : The host/staff was wonderful - so knowledgeable about the area and lovely to chat with. Breakfast was simple but delicious and very convenient to have on-site. We loved that our dog could join us as well. The space we stayed in was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Overall, a truly lovely stay and we will definitely be returning!
  : The basement felt slightly damp due to the humidity. That is not the fault of the host, as it has been very rainy - and they did supply a dehumidifier. Just something to be aware of for people who are sensitive to things like that!
