Your home away from home
Our space has a history and our story is the house – place we are in. The house where we are was once an amateur radio station one of the first of the islands. The radio station was called Procyon, and the radio is still in our space! We kept the essence and modernized the space. Here you can ask us more about this project and see some oldies from the past.

CRISTINA - PAISES BAIXOS
When I was looking a place to stay, I read reviews that this is a very calm and friendly place to stay and chill, no noisy parties or drunken students and that’s exactly what I got. The interior is amazing, staff is super friendly and great amenities. And the breakfast, Ouh my, were they wonderful. Definitely a great value for the money, I highly recommend this place
- Humidity is high so it was hard to dry the clothes (mind though that there is dryer available for a small fee), but that is an issue of being on an island and it is autumn and nothing to do with the hotel itself
AIJA
I loved absolutely everything. Every single detail. The staff are the most warm hearted and most lovely and most caring people you'll find on the planet. And they'll help you with anything you could possibly ask for. You can tell that they put their heart into the place.
Everything is designed beautifully and super stylish, the living room is hipster heaven.
FLO - GERMANY
The beds are custom made, super solid and the mattresses are a dream come true. The whole hostel is soo clean and even on a rainy day, it's pure joy to spend the day inside the hostel with the awesome staff.
The breakfast is comparable to a 4 star hotel and I haven't missed a thing there. Their kitchen is amazing too and they offer additional products like barista styled coffee or cheese/meat plates. They also have a tab like in a fancy hotel, that's a huge plus
FLO - GERMANY
You can even rent in-house mountain bikes there and tours and what not.
Honestly, extremely high standard for a hostel and it can definitely keep up with any fancy hotel. Location is amazing as it's close to the airport and all major highways to head out and explore the island.
STAY HERE, y'all ain't gonna regret it!
- There's not a single thing one can't love about this place
FLO - GERMANY

Location
We are in Ponta Delgada, the capital of the Azores and as well a really cool city to explore. If you don’t know what to do, you can ask us at the reception…but we will tell you for sure to visit some of the coolest gardens around closeby the Hostel on a small walk.
Close to the city center
São Miguel island has a lot to offer!! Can you picture yourself walking on the crater of a volcano? Swimming with dolphins, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean? Go down streams with ropes? Walking on trails that can lead you to natural waterfalls? Yes… all of this (and more) is possible here!
