3.5 star ratinggood location, air conditioninghad to pay on check out for staff to call us a taxi. very poor.11 August 2008
2.0 star ratingCan't think of any positive. Hotel was near a beach,the shops and had a pool.We really didn't enjoy our stay.There was no instructions on handing in our key when we checked in,after a week the night receptionist actually had a go at us for keeping hold of it,she was quiet rude.Most staff were very unfriendly /unhelpful.When we got to our room it smelt of urine,had mould on the walls(we can provide pictures as proof),and one of the pillows was sweaty.Our room was left unlocked twice by cleaners both times I complained but the lock was only repaired day before we left.We didn't even get an apology for this.No is this hotel a three star.16 September 2008
3.0 star ratingLocation of the Hotel was fabulous - within walking distance to beach, restaurants and old square.Staff did not seem happy to have customers - no friendly conversation or smiles!12 October 2008
4.0 star ratingi have stayed here on numerous occassions. it enjoys an excellent position just minutes from old town square, the rooms have been refurbished and are comfortable . Foe value for money this place is unbeatable!!breakfast v limited28 October 2008

5.0 star ratingEverything was fine- Hotel worth visit- great price, amazing location25 March 2009
3.5 star ratingThis hotel was right on the edge of Albufeira old town, far enough away to be quieter and close enough to enjoy all the bars & restaurants. It was clean enough and staff seemed nice enough. Bar staff were top, particularly Spike he was a good laugh. The Pool was nice and clean, and the patio around the pool a great sun trap all day. It's a small hotel and I would stay here again because value for money was good. Breakfast was a bit poor for 5 Euros, you can get full cooked breakfast cheaper in many restaurants. My outside patio was on the ground floor so below the road and not very private, but did some afternoon sun. Wakey26 April 2009
4.5 star ratingLocation very good, taxi pick up quite near, a few pubs and restaurants in the immediate vicinity as well as local supermarket. tea & coffee facilities in room as well as fridge. near albufiera square but noise minimal from this location plus the patio doors drowned out any of the noise at night. air conditioning excellent and reasonably quiet, beds comfortable, maid service excellent. staff professional but could be interpreted as aloof.Little privacy as maid service too early in the morning just after breakfast finished and unnecessary every day.08 July 2009
4.0 star ratingThe room was comfortable and cleaned every day. I requested and received a sea view room. I also had a kettle & fridge as well as free air-con. The location is perfect for quick access to the Old Town square & the beach. I enjoyed my stay very much and would have happily extended for two nights had I not been quoted considerably more (both by the hotel directly & Hotelpopia) than I originally paid! I have no hesitation in recommending this hotel and would be likely to book again for next year.Slight drainy smell from the bathroom on arrival but I think this wasn't specifically due to the hotel. Breakfast is fairly uninspiring although the bread rolls were nice & fresh - I would not have been happy if I had paid for it. The pool gets busy quickly and is quite cramped (but the beach is very close and better) and loses the sun by mid-afternoon.12 September 2009
4.5 star ratingThe hotel is very basic but value for money . Its close to all amenities, ie beach, nightlife, transport. The hotel I would'nt recomend if you want a quiet holiday it is situated very close the the square where you can hear the music from the bars, we found if you closed the doors it did block alot of the noise out, the rooms have air conditioning fridge and a kettle, the shower was great hot all the time, rooms cleaned every day. The pool is clean and there are great terraces for sunbathing in the day, and haveing a bottle of wine or 2 in the evening. We were on the 4th floor had a great view of the square you could see the sea and overlooked the pool.I cant say there was anything negative , you really get what you pay for , if you want 4 star dont go there, if you want clean and basic the go there .Danni Blackley.

4.5 star ratingExcellent location near to beach and square, breakfast was lovely and plentiful. The rooms were cleaned daily and fresh towels provided. considering the cost I can find no fault with this hotel and would be happy to stay again in the future.

5.0 star ratingGreat location, great views from the hotel room, very clean fresh bedding and towels everyday. Safe atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff! Would stay at this hotel again if we came back and would highly recommend if wanted basic but clean accomodation with great location.Only things I would say was could do with a kettle in the room and the balcony was really small with only one chair outside but hardly ever in the room anyway! couldnt leave towels outside on the balcony to dry coz birds pooped on them ha ha (no fault of the hotels though)25 August 2010
3.0 star ratingLocalização excelente! Em c5 minutos chegamos à praia e a todos os restaurantes de Albufeira! Os quartos virados para a piscna têm uma excelente vista sobre o mar. Vista muito desafogada.Vamos de férias para este hotel e não conseguimos dormir descansados porque as empregadas de limpeza começam a fascina antes das 9h e andam aos berros pelo corredor. Todos os dias teivémos este cenário triste e para quem se deita tarde é complicado acordar com os berros e o barulho do arrastar das camas e baldes por parte das empregadas dos quartos. A NÂO VOLTAR!!!!!measousa09 September 2010
4.5 star ratingWell located in the old town of Albufeira and 3-4 min walk to the beach. Very practicle as night you don't need to use the car to go to the bars and restaurants. The room was clean, aircon worked very good. There was a very small balcony. Reception generally pleasant and helpful. magda08 September 2011
