Great hospitality from the owner. Paolo walks you through an itinerary and explains the best way to tackle certain excursions (where to park, what trails to take, etc). The building was very clean and staff was friendly. Highly recommend staying here
Very friendly staff and help full staff.

Keep in mind there is no washing machine as was advertised. Also, the thermal baths in the photos are a 40 mins drive away. The 3 stars are because of this misrepresentation.
I was so happy to stay at this hostel location. Paulo was absolutely amazing with both his services and wonderful personality. Not many host will go above and beyond as he did. Anita is also so sweet and attentive for any needs. Overall, such a great experience and 100% recommended. Thank you Paulo for making this experience so memorable!
Our accommodation was amazing, very clean and spacious, with a cute balcony off the living room. The owner, Paulo was very friendly and knowledgeable, always willing to answer questions. He helped book our whale watching trip when the one we had booked weeks ago had canceled only 2 days before the date. Too many positives to tell all..
Paulo goes far and beyond to provide guest with value information about the island. It’s hard to find people who dedicated their live to serve with the only purpose to make others happy and comfortable
I loved my stay at Passal hostel, the owner Paolo is so kind and helpful. The whole property was very clean. Bed super comfortable. Perfect Location. I stayed in the women’s dorm- it was the best option for me…Was nice chatting with other guests aswell. I will be most definitely returning in the future. Thank you Passal Hostel for being a wonderful host
Great hostel, guests were quiet and respectful. Tap cards access the doors and lockers. I would have loved to leave my bag in a locker, but that was not available so I left it under the stairs and came back later for it for an additional 5Euro.
We usually don't stay in Hostels as we prefer to have own bathroom - but this time as we were only looking for a place to sleep prior to our early morning flight ; we thought -based on the reviews - that this would make it.
Passal Hostel was a really positive suprise. It was super clean, organized, it had an ambient atmosphere when you entered to the lobby. Bathroom was pretty fancy and spacious. We really liked to stay there :) Thanks for Paulo, he's a great host!

Paulo was very gracious and explained everything to me via WhatsApp since my flight was late to arrive. Obrigado Paulo!
This was my first hostel experience and I loved it. Owners and staff were so incredibly kind and helpful. Probably the best tips for seeing the island, helped book taxis to and from the airport. Place is super clean. Bed and pillow was very comfy. The air conditioning in the room was a wicked surprise and I was so thankfully. I would definitely stay here again. Only thing was that it said on the booking website there was laundry and there wasn’t but maybe I misunderstood what that meant.
