- staff is super helpful and fun; really young and motivated team - the outdoor area is very comfortable; ducks and cats for company on garden ;-) - the breakfast is better than in most hotels! also the food from the tapas bar downstais in the evening is delicious

André Portugal

Best hostel I've ever been to. João and André were truly exceptional, always making sure I had everything I needed. The place is perfectly located, right in the center of Ponta Delgada. The rooftop balcony is amazing, and the common areas are great, with attention to every detail. The room was really tidy and in excellent condition. Even the breakfast was really good. Amazing value for money. I cannot recommend this hostel enough.

The location, the homemade breakfast, the hospitality of Martins. The best hostel of the island.

Very friendly staff always ready to answer your questions. The room was very spacious, with a seating area, a double bed and a kitchenette. The bathroom had a walk-in shower with a rain showerhead. Airconditioning was also working well, as it was highly needed with the humidity. Breakfast was fresh - they took great care about not wasting food and only put out what guests would actually eat. Location was good, as we could walk pretty easily everywhere. We've enjoyed our stay a lot :) Ps the art pieces were amazing!

Jessica Malta

Excellent accommodation. We had the private room with bathroom. Very clean and comfortable with access to a kitchen and common area. Breakfast everyday at 8am. We had a rental car and manged to park outside for free relatively easily. Obviously not as convenient as having own private parking, but very doable. Very close to downtown Ponta Delgada. The host was extremely helpful and gave us very useful tips. Would 100% recommend.

The owner was excellent, always smiling and checking in with everyone making sure they were enjoying themselves. She also volunteered a lot of tips and suggestions if you're looking for things to do. There's a large coffee table with brochures for everything in the common area from car rentals to tours to restaurants if you're like me and are a bit more of a go with the flow traveler. It is possible you get there and no one is at the desk to let you in, but just ring the bell and either another person staying will let you in or staff will hear the phone ringing and get to you in between laundry, preparing beds, cleaning, and other responsibilities they have to attend to. Usually there are 1-2 people on hand. Later at night, there might not be anyone around, but I believe they ensure someone is there when they are expecting a new arrival. When I arrived, it was about 9:30 at night and the owner had just stepped out. Other people let me in and I just hung out for about 5-10 minutes until she came back. And that was just because I didn't have a phone to call them. There are numbers posted you can call via WhatsApp or local number. There is a TV in the common area if you want to watch Netflix or something. It wasn't used much while I was there, but it's available if you want/need it. The beds were comfortable. Rooms have AC with a remote to control the temp. Common areas didn't seem to have AC, but it was never hot inside. There's a patio for smoking or lounging. No view for that area, but it's still a pleasant place to sit and chat. Lots of utensils and cookware in the kitchen area. Multiple coffee and tea options as well as a water dispenser with which you're able to fill your water bottle or a cup for fresh water. Kettle for hot water. There are labels and pens for labeling your food and drinks if you want them to be kept safe in the fridge. Bathrooms were very clean--cleaned every day.
