    The room is too big, too many people, some of them snore. Good option when you are waiting for a flight. The pool table sticks are almost broken.

    Garden was good, and hostel is close from the airport. Stuff was nice.

    Nothing, perfect for an overnight stay en route to the airport.

    So close to Faro airport it made my departure very simple.also they gave great advice on the number 16 bus from the bus station in faro Town centre to nearby the hostel..there was a friendly vibe in the place and Eric at reception couldn't have been more helpful.

    Too many long term residents and some really cramped rooms. The girls bathroom was terrible with no place to hang your clothes while showering. But the mixed downstairs one is more convenient.

    Walking distance from the airport so perfect for early flights. My first night was in a girls only room. The garden is nice and one room has a great rooftop terras.

    It is close to the airport but far from everything else. The closest store is about 25 min away. You are not provided a key for your room, so anybody can come in at any time. The room as just one main light, so if it is somebody arriving at 1 am, you'll be disturbed by it anyways. Showers are tiny, it is really uncomfortable to dry yourself inside the cabinet and try to not wet the corridor. Also the door was broken, so it opened with a small breeze. And the Internet didn't work at all in the room.

    Really nice staff and It is just one step away from the Airport, which comes pretty handy if you have an early flight as mine. The building is super pretty, kitchen is spacious, toilets were clean and were shared with not that many people as I feared. You can "rent" a towel for 2 euro, and pay a deposit for a locker (the deposit is given back at check out time) Perfect for solo travelers that need to catch the flights. The beach is also kinda close, you can rent a bike at the hostel and go, unless you prefer to walk or call a taxi (about 4/5 euro)

    The mixed room that I was in , the tooing and froing of so many people, even with my back to the door the hallway light was too bright. The showers and toilets are only big enough for a smaller woman.

    The property was clean , tidy, well furnished, very bright and colourful. Great kitchen/ shared area, nice garden area plus plenty of garden furniture too.

    They changed me a city tax despite Booking. Com saying there were no extra charges

    It’s near the beach, about a half hour walk away. It’s a pretty relaxed place no one bothers you and the staff are generally friendly

    - the location was not so good (too far from the beach and too far from the city to just walk there) - REALLY quiet and boring location (literally nothing to do nearby) - the beds are not so stabil (hard to climb them up)

    - the garden is really pretty and big - it's perfect for the first night after arriving by plane (you can even walk to the hostel)

    Lots of beds in the dorm that are pretty close to each other, no sense of privacy; metal bed frames making noises with every movement, disturbes the sleep.

    Short walk from the airport, great price, nice outside sitting area, women only bathroom, friendly staff, big locker next to each bed.

    The location to the airport is fantastic a very affluent part which is quiet the neighbours have large property’s with private pools, tennis club next door with a cafe and bar is either a 15 minute walk or €3.50 Uber ride to the airport. This is a large hostel with a very spacious Garden ideal for relaxing. Well equipped communal kitchen. Staff are just brilliant very welcoming sorry I forgot to leave a tip.

    The room I was in, had a ridiculously loud creaking door, making my entry at night and toilet trips very awkward not disturb anyone sleeping.

    Nice and quiet streets around the hostel, love the facilities in the kitchen and the lovely open garden with lots of tables to sit for a morning coffee. Beds were surprisingly comfortable, toilets and showers are in a fair state.
