Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I arrived at 8 PM and because there is no reception or person on staff I had to call a number and communicate in broken English to try and get into the door to get my room. My keys were just in the door so anyone could have been in my room as it was unlocked. I found the property very loud even during the day with like four different bands playing at one time so it was hard to read a book or enjoy by the pool. I couldn’t have any advice on things around or ask any questions about my room to anyone as there was never any staff around other than the person doing the breakfast . The property is very historic with old wooden floors and poor condition, but the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was very outdated, but it had a certain charm to it.

Absolutely beautiful place to stay, the staff was excellent, everything was very clean and pretty, and our entire trip was very smooth! Just a heads up if noise is a problem for you to fall asleep, this place is located close to Albufeira’s main square and it’s pretty bumping at night.

Great property with a beautiful pool. Very loud near old town and hard to get sleep as music goes until 4 am. They did provide ear plugs which was a nice touch! I didn’t have the breakfast but it looked decent. The lady who runs it was super nice but daily nosey and asking knocking on our door to find out what we are doing al the time or why I’m leaving in and out of my room. Other than that the location is great and the pool did it for me.

Kudos to the team for keeping the property running, but the hotel has seen better days. The area is also incredibly loud at night (the hotel does not disclose that on their website but you quickly realize there is something wrong when ear plugs are provided upon your arrival). Not a good option if you are looking for a peaceful retreat and good sleep.

It couldn't be positioned better in Albufeira. Right in the centre of the old town. This, of course, comes with the caveat that it's noisy until late, but that's to be expected. Host was helpful, friendly, and the breakfast is super.

Excellent stay, great location, and warm staff!
Excellent place! Location is very central, a couple of minutes walk from the beach, and all the bars&restaurants. Hotel is old school but very functional, comfortable, spacious room, well equipped, and very warm hospitality that made us feel at home and helped us with anything we needed. Will recommend this place!

Nice stay
We arrived quite early and were greeted by the owner. She allowed us to check in and explained the room/property. This was a large old building/home that had been subdivided. Our room was basic w a private bathroom. We got some great food suggestions and helpful tips for the area.

Malfalda couldn't do enough and was always checking if everything was Good or if we needed anything. The house is beautiful and you don;t feel like you are in a big hotel. The view is amazing over the square of the old town. There was noise from the square at night but the huge bed was so comfy that it didn't stop us sleeping. I don;t think I have ever slept so much on holiday! The entrance to the hotel is at the back and there are large slopes or stairs to get down to the square - and back up. Luckily you can use the Hotel California next door for their lifts so this brings you straight to the bar street with no steps. The only down side for me was the spiral staircase to the pool!! As I don't like these but Mafalda said to ask for a lower room so you can walk straight out to the pool. The pool was too cold to use - but that was expected in November ! At least we had great weather and 22 degrees each day. I would stay here again, but not sure if it would be too noisy in summer when all the bars are open late

We are truly thankful to Mafalda who made us feel welcomed and gave us great suggestions about going around Albufeira and where do find the best in town. She also brought some traditional Easter sweets for Easter Sunday and made it feel like our home! The hotel was beautiful, had an amazing view as well. There was some party noise from clubs but we still managed to sleep well! It is the party city after all! Definitely recommend this stay.

The star of the show is the manager, Mafalda. She is completely dedicated to making your stay an exceptional one. She personally prepares breakfast if you order it the day before: fresh bread and cakes, eggs, bacon, cheese, fruits and jams, even fresh-pressed orange juice. She is also extremely knowledgeable about what to do and see. She takes great pride in the running of this small guest house (part of a larger chain, but you would never know it). The location is very convenient. Unfortunately, like everyone else has said, it is a constant blare of electronic beat music until 3 or 4am from the town square just below the hotel. Earplugs are provided. It really depends what you are looking for. If you like to stay out late and be able to walk to your hotel, it's perfect. If you're looking to get a good solid night's rest, not so much.
