Lovely quiet little hotel with a really good selection of food. Hotel staff were really friendly and super helpful, would definitely go again. The Strip, Old Town and Marina are all within a 10 minute Uber/Bolt journey, so it’s nice to spend the day in the busy touristy centre, then come back to a nice quiet area. The beach is also within a couple minutes walk from the hotel!!

Solo weekend break

This hotel is a fantastic option for a solo getaway most if the guests were solo travellers, I have stayed at a lot if places alone and I have never found a place were u felt so comfortable, relaxed and safe as I did at this place. The rooms are basic and slightly dated but it is a budget accommodation and in my opinion you get more than you pay for . I would return for sure and recommend to my friends looking for a relaxing break.

Lo que más me ha gustado ha sido la playita que está a 5 minutos andando del hotel, es una maravilla y muy tranquila, el atardecer espectacular. En cuanto al hotel, un poco caro para el estado de las instalaciones, no cambiaron las toallas en los 4 días que estuvimos y solo nos pusieron una grande a pesar de ser dos personas. Camas cómodas y espaciosas y lugar tranquilo y agradable.

Hotel au calme, bien situé pour visiter l'Algarve soit en voiture (stationnement facile) soit en bus (arret à 200 m) il est un peu vieillot ,la salle de bain aurait besoin d'un rafraichissement mais néanmoins il est trés propre. Cet hotel dispose d'un bar restaurant et d'une piscine , d'autres restaurants sont à proximité.Le personnel est très accueillant et serviable .

Economico ma stanza piena di problemi.

Dell'impianto di illuminazione funzionano: 1 su 3 luci in bagno, 0 su 1 sul balcone, 3 su 4 in stanza; il frigorifero la prima notte ha iniziato a fare un rumore enorme che è stato stoppato dal lancio di una ciabatta; il ventilatore a velocità 5 è lentissimo; la vasca da bagno sembra otturata perché l'acqua scorre eccessivamente lenta; lo sciacquone schizza completamente il water fuoriuscendo dallo stesso. L'impianto elettrico fa strani rumori di corto circuito soprattutto nell'interruttore della luce centrale della stanza (non funzionante ovviamente); il frigobar è stato posto su un tavolino di plastica ed essendo parzialmente cedute le gambe, il frigo è inclinato in avanti e appena lo si apre cade tutto.
In compenso è economico e vicino al centro solo se hai una macchina.

Ne comptez pas dormir, la température dans l'hôtel

Ne comptez pas dormir! Il y fait toujours plus de 30º dans les chambres, le wifi ne fonctionne que très mal, du coup les clients passent des heures et des heures dans la réception. Oubliez aussi le restaurant de l'hôtel à moins de vouloir tester les médecins portugais.. Les viandes y sont cachées sous des sauces trop épicées.. Bref à part la vue mer et le balcon, il n'y a rien pour sauver cet hôtel!
