it's an old building, but they keep it clean. It's way up on a hill above town, so getting to restaurants is easy, getting back to the hotel on foot to slot of work

Good value, well recommended

Excellent value. Room was clean, bed comfortable, bathroom obviously recently refitted and spotlessly clean. Breakfast typical Portuguese, but also bacon, scrambled eggs and a variety of cakes. Staff friendly, check in very efficient and receptionist happy to converse in Portuguese although I am English. Happy to recommend. Don't miss Ténis Pizza, 5-10 minutes walk - so good.

Lovely Staff

The staff there are really lovely, kind and very friendly and helpful. I’m sure if my husband and I were in our 20s and 30s we could have made it through, but the bed was so hard we went through 3 rather sleepless nights so we left two days early. On the positive, it’s a nice location with restaurants nearby.

Albufeira Gem.

Very good stay, excellent service especially from the afternoon desk lady(i believe her name was Illaine. Super friendly and helpful. Decent breakfast,and refreshing small pool. Amazing view from our deck outside our room. Close to everything restaurants, groceries and an easy 15 minute walk down to the beach.

First time in Albufeira

Great hotel, nothing fancy but probably deserves 3 stars rather than the 2 it publishes. Staff were brilliant and very friendly, changed our room after we requested one with a balcony. Bit of a hike up the hill from the beach but absolutely worth it for the views. Has a very small pool but we never used as no view and tended to be in the shade

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

OK for the price

+ Near the old town + Good view from balcony with sea view + Nice staff + Not many guests by the hotel, easy to get a sunbed (although not many sunbeds) - Very outdated hotel - No airconditioning - Funky smell in the room - Extremely loud, really hard to sleep a full night. Paper thin walls and floors with loud party guests - It’s far up the hill, so be ready for a hike uphill when you go back to the hotel

It is a nice hotel with great views of the beach from some rooms. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The beds were comfortable but there was no air conditioning and it was very hot with the windows open all night long. Couldn’t sleep well due to heat. Breakfast was adequate. It was within walking distance to the beach and city center .
