Reviews of Txada Hostel

Friendly staff. Large room. Bed was quite comfortable as for me. Location is specific, but there is a bus stop nearby, which can take you to the center for less than 50 escudos, it was safe at night in my opinion. There are several small supermarkets nearby, a bank to change money, cafés etc. You can pay by card for the stay. Good fridge, air conditioning.

No lamp by the bed. Only soap for washing, there was no shower gel or shampoo. Wardrobe was dirty at the top (dust), which made my clothes dirty. Breakfast starts quite late, at 8:00 and is limited in itself, also on the second morning, I arrived later and the impression was that no more food was added after it started - the choice was even smaller than on the first morning.

The staff was really friendly and helpful. The breakfast simple, but good

The children outside made noise during the night and it was hard to sleep

Breakfast was great, especially for this price point. Room was good enough, top floor you have a nice view, staff was very friendly!

Not great isolation so if someone is talking loud in the hallway you hear it in the room

Location was great and staff was lovely

Bathroom could be better

The room was comfortable and the service was really good.

.receptionist was nice

the room was not cleaned for a week, towels and bed linen were not changed, garbage was not taken out, the breakfast was monotonous. it was always like that for a week. the street was noisy, there was no shower gel, hairdryer, toilet paper was not changed... they did not give what was on the booking.

The staff was nice and welcoming, the bed was good and the shower was ok.

A little list of broken stuff for the second floor room called "Santiago": door latch does not work, electrical sockets fall off, bed side lamps have no plugs (!?), fridge does not close properly runs all night and prevents sleeping, the one sofa is broken and unfit to seat presumptive user, curtains fall off when trying to close them as rods not fastened to brackets, bathroom furniture falling to bits, etc.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this lovely hotel. Lena, Jil, Bacary, and the rest of the staff was incredibly kind and helpful, going above and beyond to help with absolutely everything I needed. They are very special people, and they are running a very clean, comfortable, reliable place. I would absolutely stay here again. The wifi worked well, I appreciated the hot shower, the bed was comfortable, and I enjoyed the location. About a half-hour walk from Plateau, Sucupira, or Palmarejo, with plenty of ATMs, minimarts, and restaurants just a few minutes' walk away.

The hostel is in an excellent location and great value in Praia.

The quality of mattress was not great, but I couldn't complain too much considering the price.

Great ‘hostel’ which I’d say feels more like a hotel! One of the best rooms I have had in Cabo Verde for this price! Totally recommend it. The receptionist Bacarri was of great help and very friendly, sound guy! Breakfast was included and it has a lovely selection with fresh Baobab juice too! Wi-fi worked fine as well.

not the best location but safe!

Thank you so much for holding on to my baggage safely

I'd just add liquid soap to the bathroom and a small bedside yellow lamp for lower light exposure before sleeping. Everything else was great.

Good value, pleasant and helpful staff, decent breakfast for the cost of the stay, large room. Air con ok though remote a little temperamental. Shower fine. A bit rough around the edges in places, and some music playing in the street until after midnight, but overall good value and what I needed.

Few small things. No towel provided, didn’t have time to ask so used my own. Air con remote a little temperamental. Wouldn’t want to walk into town on my own at night from there, but fine in the day. Only a sheet provided.

The front desk staff Bacary and Andrea were very friendly and always willing to help with anything. The breakfast was great always fresh bread ,fruit,cake ,juices etc Had a very nice clean and comfortable room with balcony. I liked that the place was always kept spotless. Location wasn’t too bad it was just a short taxi or bus ride to town and maybe a 15 min walk to the beach.

can’t think of anything

- good breakfast - very helpful personal

- no warm water in the shower - anyone in the corridor is going to see you in the shared bathroom even if they don’t want to because the bathroom door is see through and the room doors are close to it - a huge worm in the shower has scared me

The room was extremely noisy and some basic things were missing such as toilet paper.

24h reception, friendly staff, clean rooms, and they organise you a taxi to the airport even at 3am

Simple and affordable accommodation, comfortable and exactly as expected - good value for money! Friendly staff and breakfast included. I was surprised to discover the room was air conditioned too. Exactly what I needed for a one night stay in Praia.

The location is not the best but it is still a walkable distance to the beach or to the town centre - or a short taxi ride.
