The guest house was fabulous!!! WE had a wonderful time and will stay here again. The guesthouse is in a perfect location to the beach and the old town with lots of things to do. Food was great and lots of restaurants.

Interesting hostel in a central Albufeira area
Pretty clean and laid back hostel. It’s run in conjunction with a trendy shop selling goods. So when you check in, you have to wait for the store staff to pull up your info at the cash register. It can get very busy and crowded in the store depending especially during a high summer season. Rooftop is a nice feature after the sundown - during the day, there is no shade. Minimal assistance given from the staff as they’re busy tending the store and customers. However, there is a tourism info office just steps across from the hostel. It’s in a very busy, central area so expect some noise at night.

Amazing location. Everything is within reach. Nights are abit noisy, but can’t be helped. The only thing they need to improve on is the WiFi supply which is low and doesn’t work in the rooms

No wi fi in the rooms. poor signal.. everyone has to go to the top floor to get some signal. Staff barely smile and they were a bit dry.. not the nice welcome I was expecting. Check out felt even worse. Staff unhelpful and don't bother with you. The room was lovely and the decoration very tasteful, 2 minutes walk to the beach but not being able to use my phone in the room really upset me. No breakfast offered and £20.00 deposit taken from you for the key. Ridiculous amount for a plain key. Not Impressed!

Very convenient and nice hostel
This hostel might be a little bit of an unusual one, the reception is at a shop for tourists mainly (where they probably make their money), the hostel itself has been renovated recently, some painting and other works were done and looks very well cared. There is no staff inside the hostel, the shop closes at 10 so until 10 next day make sure you don't forget your code to get back in. Facilities are very nice, the room has a great en-suite bathroom with loads of things, bed are comfortable, great lockers, very nice kitchen for the size of the hostel (is a small hostel) People seemed to be very respectful there, not many people staying though, I was alone the three nights in a 6 beds dorm! There is no breakfast but they offer some free stuff like coffee, tea, sugar and other things for the kitchen and I believe the laundry is free. Location is fantastic, right in the center. Wifi was good enough.

In en uitchecken in ondergelegenvwinkel. Winkelpersoneel is niet goed geinstrueerd/bekend met procedure. Laat gasten wachten, berekend afwijkend prijzen tov Expedia boeking. Borg 20€ per sleutel. Accommodatie verder prima, wij hadden de kamers met privé douche en toilet. Kleine kamers, beperkte opberg- ruimte.. Voor paar dagen goed te doen. Handdoeken op de grond worden weer opgehangen in plaats van verschoond.

Muy bien ubicado, limpio, habitaciones cómodas. El personal necesita más y mejor entrenamiento. Durante una semana entera, nunca funcionó correctamente internet, se corta constantemente y la señal se reduce a ciertos sectores específicos.
