Luis was friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious for 1 person. It got cold at night, but I layered up and slept good. It was peaceful during the day on Sunday, but got louder at night around 10-11pm. In the morning there was construction right outside my window. I also had WIFI issues on my phone in the morning. It wouldn't work in the room. Lastly, I smelled cigarette smoke in the hallway in the morning. The reason for the inconsistent score is that the kitchen is a mess. The one downstairs seemed better managed/cleaned. Also, the bathrooms were hit or miss with cleanliness.

The building is old, everything is dirty. I had mold in my room and the cleaning ladies did basically nothing about it. Also there were dead bugs in the wall of my room. During summer months the whole residence was full of ants. The owner cares just about the money and he has problems to give people back the deposit. The only advantage is the location. I would never recommend it.

Simply one of the worst experience in my life. The hostel is completely dirty particularly the kitchen and the toilet!. The kitchen is small with bad smell all day! The diretion is lazy and even we complained several times, the cleaning staff came more or less never! terrible WIFI too!

I spent there 5 months of my erasmus, infrastructure and amenities are on very low level. Sometimes smell (in particular in the kitchen) is umbearable. But the main problem is owner who does not give back deposit, most of the times because of false accusations that you broke something etc. Singular advantage is localicsation. I do not recomend this place.

Overall, disaster. Staff was nice but I cannot rate this "hostel" higher. Dirty, incredibly cold, we were warmer outside... I would not recommend and I would not come back. Cheap but I wouldn't stay there for free again.

no check in desk, no organization at all. they didn't get our reservation, so they sent us to the only room available, in another hostel from the same chain, away from the city centre. you're given a coupon for your breakfast in "the most emblematic cafe" in town. yeah, right... you'll have a glass of milk with a pastry or with a toast.

If you like finding a dirty, slummiest, noisy and expensive place the Be Coimbra Hostel is perfect for you !! The room was hot, dirty, drab whith broken door and windows situated in a horrible smoke stinkiing building.The proposed dinner in the wine bar of the owner arrived by take away and it was cold end bad prepared. For breakfast you have a voucher for a cafè (the oldest and famous in town) but you only get a cappuccino and croissant standing ( special treatment for Coimbra Hostel guests!) Impossible to sleep till 4 am for the music coming from the bar wine of the owner under our windows. 10.30 am we went to the reception to complain but it was close and no one there.
