GoodSep 20197.1
The location is great, the room was nice and clean.
The reception was supposed to be open from 8am till 8pm but the receptionist was rarely present. The bathrooms were okay (there are two for a floor) but they were a little dirty sometimes and the doors of the showers were broken. And also for a whole day the water did not work.

Beds were relatively comfy. Staff was friendly. It wasn't too noisy. Curtains were thick to hide the sun.
Bathroom was often very dirty with sand and hair in thw showers and on the sink. They gave us each just one towel for 5 days. There was no window, just a big door.

Good location.
The bed was way to soft and unstable. The commutation with the staff was complicate. Wifi was average.

The room was very close to the city center - with plenty of bars, restaurants, cafes and shops around. Very convenient for sightseeing as it's walking distance from key places in Faro (including bus/train station and ferry).

Shared kitchen available. 10 minutes walk to the train / bus station. Nice staff, we could leave out luggage for a few hours after checked out.”
