It was a good stay overall, a little bit off the main area but still close enough. The staff was very friendly and the breakfasts were nice. The bathrooms can be a bit busy in the morning but to be expected! I would definitely stay again!

The hostel was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The kitchen/dining room was well appointed and we used it to cook some food. Breakfast was served from 9 until 11am. There was also a small lounge with a tv, a small balcony, and a central courtyard seating area. Free parking on the street is easy to find and it's not so far to walk to the town centre.

Short pleasant stay

Very short overnight stay as landing late at Faro airport. Self check in to a very comfortable room with a great shower. Staff were extremely friendly and a lovely portuguese breakfast was provided. It has a hostel type feel which we really liked and would be a great place to launch your algarve adventures from.

It’s a guesthouse where you share the bathroom and the dining room. The bathroom is practicable and fulfill the function. The breakfast selection is simple but enough and we liked the self baked Pastéis the nata. If you search for an accommodation for a good price we can recommend it.
