    What a gem! The hostel in Pinhão exceeded my expectations. The owner, Pedro, was cute and went out of his way to make my stay enjoyable. The hostel itself is newly renovated and spotlessly clean. I loved the little touches, like the privacy screens between bunks and the outlets at each bed. The rooftop patio with its fine views was the perfect place to relax. The location is ideal, with plenty of Quintas within walking distance.

    I had an amazing stay at Douro Backpackers. The hostel is brand new and everything is beautifully refurbished and spotlessly clean. I loved relaxing on the rooftop terrace surrounded by lemon trees and sipping on their delicious homemade lemonade. The owners, Sara and Pedro, were incredibly kind and passionate about their hostel and the guests. They made me feel like part of their family and provided me with valuable tips and recommendations for exploring the area. The hostel's central location was also a bonus. I highly recommend Douro Backpackers for a fantastic and unforgettable experience.

    The location of the hostel is ideal, situated in the heart of a beautiful valley with stunning views. The rooms are bright and airy, providing a comfortable and clean space for guests. The shared bathroom is well-maintained and offers a pleasant experience. The breakfast provided is delicious and diverse, ensuring a good start to the day. Additionally, the hostel offers a rooftop terrace and garden, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surrounding scenery.

    Some guests may find the owners to be overly controlling and excessive in their explanations, which can be overwhelming for those who prefer a more independent experience.

    Our stay at Douro Backpackers was fantastic. Pedro, the host, went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. He organized a barbecue and took us to a butchery for a wine tasting, providing a true local experience. The hostel itself is in a beautiful, recently renovated house, and the rooftop is a perfect spot to relax after a day of hiking and wine tasting. we highly recommend this hostel.
