InBraga Hostel

BED BUGS! I had the bed bugs experience and when informing the hostel was only overwhelmed with excuses (or not even that in first instance, but merely neglect). Thankfully didn't bring them with me to my friend's place afterwards. For days I was still itchy and the two night I spent on the hostel itself it was horrible. First night I thought it was mosquitos, only halfway the even worse second night I realised it was something else. The owner didnt feel like offering any form of compensation and said they came from other hostels.... I also left a more extensive review on Booking. In their reply, Instead of acknowledging their shortcomings and offering compensation, they stated that I "possibly" imagined the bed bugs even when I showed the guy my widespread marks. This is very upsetting. Also I was not the only one who suffered from bed bugs there, others were hospitalised, so yes there is an issue there.

I had a brilliant stay here in early November. The bed was comfortable, the staff were extremely pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable and the hostel is well situated a few minutes walk from the old town. There’s a nice communal kitchen where people sit and socialise / eat together in the evening. I highly recommend.
