    Great location with plenty of restaurants nearby and close to historical must-sees. The staff/owners were very friendly and passionate about the city, providing helpful maps and information.

    There was only one shower and bathroom for the whole place, which could be inconvenient when everyone was getting ready in the morning. the wooden floors made it quite noisy, as you could hear every movement from other guests.

    Perfect location in the heart of the old city, making it easy to walk to everything. Hostel is spotlessly clean and well-maintained.- Enjoyed the included breakfast with pod coffee.

    Only one shared bathroom and shower, but there wasn't any queuing. Some noise at night from other guests coming in late.

    The location of the hostel is perfect, right in the heart of the old town. It was great being able to explore the well-preserved streets and buildings of the area. The bathroom and toilet facilities were clean and had all the basic amenities needed for personal hygiene. Additionally, the staff was friendly and helpful, making our stay more enjoyable.

    That there was only one bathroom and toilet for all guests, which could be inconvenient during busy times. It would have been better if there were more facilities available to avoid any waiting.

    The location of the hostel is ideal, situated in a quiet traffic-free street, great for those seeking peace and tranquility. the hostel offers a warm welcome and provides fresh white sheets, pillows, and duvets, ensuring a comfortable stay. there is a kitchen available to use, equipped with all the necessary facilities.

    The shared bathroom, although very nice, may pose an inconvenience as there is only one available.

    The hostel had a clean and fresh dormitory room with comfortable beds. The kitchen was cozy and well-equipped, with a modern coffee machine offering free coffee. Free fruit and sweet bread were a nice touch. The shower-room had multiple sinks and was not crowded. The hosts were friendly and helpful, offering recommendations and allowing us to store our bags before check-in.

    Felt very welcomed, nothing too much trouble.

    We had a delightful stay at Slow City Hostel. The location was perfect, right in the city center and within walking distance to everything. The hostel was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated. The twin room we stayed in was comfortable, with cozy bedding provided. The shared bathroom was lovely, and the kitchen and lounge area were great for cooking and relaxing. The friendly owners, Jorge and Maria, were extremely helpful and gave us great recommendations for things to do and places to eat in the area. We also enjoyed the included breakfast with delicious pod coffee. we highly recommend this hostel for an enjoyable stay in Pontevedra.
