We were greeted by a very warm welcome. Shown to our room which was very clean and had a very comfortable bed. Although on a street we were not disturbed at night by noise. Excellent location, really easy to walk from bus station. Lots of traditional places to eat. Loved it here, will definitely return.

Very nice
This was a great hostel. My only complaint is the whole building has 1 shower and 2 toilets. But other than that, very clean. Friendly staff, free breakfast of sandwich meat and cereal. Great location. I would stay again.

Okay stay
Met some other cool travelers and ended up playing board games and then going to a nice bar in the surroundings. Lockers in the room did not work at all. The staff at the reception was attentive and stored my backpack in the staff room - that was great and thank you for that! The facilities are a bit old. There is only one restroom on the upper floor that gets easily wet. I spend one night only that was very windy, and the doors and windows kept slamming all the time. The hostel let a guy check-in at 2 AM, who made some noise in the room. The free breakfast was good. Overall, the say was okay.

They honored my ground floor room. Bugs in bathroom, dirty dishes (50+ in kitchen) no eggs for breakfast or fresh fruit, low quality of juhce Bd horrible bread. I washe 1/2 dushes. Flooring coming up, fall rusk. No tv. Narrow bath tub and very easy to slip as it has round floor with no rail to hold on to.

Lovely hotel in central Faro
Lovely hostel in the centre of Faro. Stayed in a double, en-suite room. Really clean and cute looking room. I think we were the oldest staying there as it is primarily younger people who stay there but we were made to feel very welcome. The place had a friendly atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend.

Social, Friendly, and Convenient
My first impression is that the service is awesome. Everyone who works there is friendly, helpful, and works hard to remember people’s names. The rooms and bathrooms are clean. The hostel dinners are awesome. It’s definitely a social hostel so there are lots of tours and trips available including pub crawls n such. Also in a great location that is safe and close to everything. Would absolutely stay again

The atmosphere and staff are very friendly & welcoming. Although we are far older than most of the hostellers, we felt totally at ease with them. Sharing the kitchen worked perfectly for breakfast and there is a wonderful cook who prepares a dinner for 10 euros. Our double room was adequate though not fancy. The lovely old house has many nice places to sit both inside & out.

Great staff! The hostel was chill and decently located. Liked the fact that they had dinners you could opt in or out of. Took the airport terminal bus for like 15-20min. to the bus station and it was only a 10min walk from there, super easy. Liked that they had a fridge you could buy drinks from and a few snacks as well.
