My stay at Metro Hostel Lisbon was a mixed bag. The location is fantastic, being near the Saldanha Metro station, which made it easy for me to get around the city. However, I found the facilities lacking, especially the limited number of bathrooms for so many guests. Despite the friendly staff and clean room, the noise level was disruptive, not aligning with the advertised soundproof features. Overall, I had a decent experience but wouldn't recommend it for longer stays.

I had a mixed experience at Metro Hostel Lisbon. The location was great, being just a short walk from the metro, which made it easy to navigate the city. However, the noise at night was quite bothersome, especially with the bell ringing constantly when guests returned. The kitchen was also somewhat cramped for the number of guests.

Rooms

The upper dormitory lacks a door, so noise travels easily. This made my stay less relaxing than I'd hoped.

My stay at Metro Hostel Lisbon was a mixed experience. While the location was excellent with Saldanha Metro station nearby, I found the facilities lacking, especially the crowded kitchen and limited bathrooms. However, staff like Diogo were incredibly helpful, providing insights about the best places to visit in Lisbon. Overall, it was decent for independent travelers but could be improved significantly. 😅

I had a decent stay at Metro Hostel Lisbon, primarily thanks to its great location and helpful staff. However, the lack of bathrooms for the number of guests can become a bit of a hassle, and my initial bed assignment didn't match my request, which was a letdown. It's a mixed bag, but overall, it was an okay experience.

I booked a bed in an 8-bed room but was given an upper bed first, and then moved to a 10-bed room with limited space due to a table being removed. It can get a bit cramped.

There were only two toilets and showers for a lot of guests, which meant waiting in line. Plus, the heat in the top-floor room was an issue since there were no fans.
