Very Good
GGuest UserThe amenities closes by 7pm, apartment has no washing machine or dryer. The boiler has mould…… as for the heater to be switched on, the controller is spoiled and require physical engineer/ staff to assist.. good as it’s convenient for parking, I have a car with me. Overall great view :)
HHazaaaGreat basically option, right in the centre of the old town very close to tunnel to the beach! Rooms pretty basic but had a smart tv and access to shared facilities - a kitchen and roof terrace. Great stay me and my partner said we’d deffo be back. Had to check in at the Ale-Hop next door which was fine however they couldn’t find our booking for a while and we had to wait whilst they made contact with the owner l.
GGuest UserStayed here for a short break to celebrate my wife’s 50th birthday. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Only thing the room was lacking was a kettle (do they not know us brits love a cuppa!?!?). We asked reception, and the following day there was a kettle in our room.
A nice touch was on my wife’s birthday there was a knock at the door and we were given a bottle of sparking wine ☺️
Overall, a good hotel in a great location.
CColinTim member of staff was exceptionally very attentive and helpful he along with all other staff made my stay really first class
I will recommend this hotel to all my family and friends
Thanks to the owners
GGiuseppe CesareExcellent location for access to the sea (Albufeira beach) and the cliffs. Center reachable in 15m via the beach but also with a free shuttle bus provided by the hotel. Nice swimming pool (chilly for the season). Excellent breakfast and quite variable buffet with extended hours. Structure a little dated, in particular the room (the neighbors' air conditioning is a little noisy and needs some revision)
GGuest UserThe apartment was spacious and in a good location if you like walking (which we do) the only downside was that the apartment was very cold at night for those sleeping in the living area as the AC was only in the bedroom.
GGuest UserWe reserved room with ocean view but got assigned on the 2nd floor with restaurant roof view.
And ocean view is quite far far away.
Room is quite spacious but old.
Location is very great... accessible by foot to almost every where in the old town.
Parking fee is Euro19 per night included tac and every surcharge.
MMatthewThe hotel is ok, the room number/blocks designation is a bit confusing though… It’s not in a bad spot for the new *****, and is flanked by plenty of restaurants etc… Big plus is the air con, pool area is just ok for how many rooms they have, no where near enough places to sit
JJorden/- Lovely cosy apartment, that looked even nicer and more modern than on the photos.
- While not super big, the space has been very cleverly used and it felt like having my own mini home.
- Kitchen is well equipped, so you can really use it to cook your own dinner (I just missed a colander to drain rice and vegetables, but I realise it must be impossible to cater for every individual guest's preferences). Enough pots, pans, cutlery, even a corkscrew and dishcloth are provided. No spices, oil or sponge though, so (quite understandably) you need to buy or bring a few things yourself.
- Lovely balcony, sunny most of the day and I could even watch the sea from there.
- Good location, as long as you're fine being near ”The Strip” (and not so near the old town). Very close to the beach. In a central but quiet location (at least in February, but my guess is that it's just far enough from the Strip to be reasonably quiet in busier months as well). About a 10 minute walk from Santa Eulalia bus stop from where you can take a bus to Faro (and other places on that route, such as Vilamoura and Quarteira). It's about a 40 minute walk to the main bus terminal. There's also a city bus, but I never really worked out that system (taxis are everywhere too and apparently not very expensive either).
- Great value for money. I extended my stay by 2 more nights and certainly recommend this place.
While I very much enjoyed my stay here, there are a few small things that could possibly still be improved. Those are really just small details though!
- I'd suggest putting a few extra bin bags in the apartment. Cleaning takes place every 3 or 4 days, which is totally fine. But especially if guests cook in the apartment, the rubbish contains food rests and starts smelling after a few days. It's no problem to change the bag myself, but having a few extra bags in the room would be helpful.
- There's an illuminated ”emergency exit” sign above the apartment's entrance door, on the inside the room. That's really annoying at night, because it's like always keeping one light switched on in your bedroom. Can't those signs be placed outside the room? I ended up covering it with a dark T-shirt every night, which solved the problem too;-)
- There's no socket near the bed.
