nice looking beds
are they custom made or you just bought them off-the-shelf somewhere??
Hello everyone,
So, I am on those frenetic last days to open my family hostel with a capacity to 38 beds ,with 8, 6, 5 and 4 bunk beds rooms and twin bedrooms also, on Rossio district area in Aveiro - central of Aveiro (Portugal) where the best bars and restaurants are.
My thoughts is to open it next 11 of July, but I am facing last minute delays on the renovation operations... Every single day I stress with the construction guys and it will be a little bit stressy to open it on the date I am thinking, but we are going to do our best...
So, Aveiro is a small city between Oporto (70km) and Lisbon (250Km) - however is the 7th biggest city in Portugal - 10 minutes away by car from the beach – amazing spot to surf, wind and kite-surf and to sail also. One week here and you will have the best brown skin in the world... ;) At 30 minutes away by car we can find lovely country side spots to cannoning or rafting and also to trek some hours on Caramulo mountains with a fresh and clean air.
About the Hostel now, it is an old house with more than 100 years old all renovated with a lovely design and decoration (I hope!!!) – some pictures will come soon... It has a small back yard with a even small terrace and a BBQ area for summer time... J It has a big lounge room, an Internet place with some PC’s, a common kitchen with a table and a table room to play or to have some thematic dinners...
Can you please help me on the logo? My sister and I have different opinion. They are quite similar, but which logo do you prefer, option 1 or 2?!? Please check it attached.
Some news will come soon, but please be free to “opinate” and give a feedback about the logo’s.
Thanks all.
Cheers

Yes, they are custom made...
There here 3 things that I wanted on those bunk beds:
- Confortable
- Resistant
- Would have a locker incorporated to maximize the space I have
On the lockers, I also have 3 points with electricity for mobile phone, computer, IPod or camera charge with all securtity... ;)
Thanks Chico.

In my experience FOREVER! :mad:
Do not worry, they take like a couple of weeks. It all depends on the amount of people requesting for them in the area. So you´re good!

Yeah! HB and Gomio are great!
The girls on HB call you any time you want, And Wenke Hemlich is real patient.
HW is more complicated, unfortunately...

I like the logo with the door better. The other one looks like the backpackers are just going to walk on by.

Hei,
Yes, I've decided for the logo with the door, an open door for every travellers, an open house to relax and use.
It is decided!!! :-)

Pity that Wenke doesn't work anymore for GOMIO. However the rest of the staff are helpful too.
I agree that the HB team are fantastic - always friendly and ready to help.
