    One member of staff turned on the light in the night because she thought someone had stolen wifi router, The internet connection mentioned on the door didn't work, but they had another one, I connected at reception.

    I like that staff was friendly and helped with any requests. The location is close to the airport, 15 min walk. There are rules in the building, no drinking, no noise after certain hours, and no light in the sleeping room after the hour.

    The room was very small. Bed creaky and a little uncomfortable. Some mosquitoes about because doors left open in the evening. Room a bit warm.

    Lovely greeting. Lovely people I met here. I was only here for 1 night before catching flight so was great for this. Showers hot and good pressure however a little small. Bedding clean. Very good value for money and great place to meet fellow travellers.

    I do not know because I was always either sleeping or walking around the Algarve.

    I liked the fact that it was not too close to the center of Faro and it was quiet. The atmosphere was pleasant and relaxing and I managed to find some peace. Very well located with the beach and with Faro city. Staff was welcoming and knowledged about the cities to explore in the Algarve and the activities to do during the holiday.

    I was in the dorm and got woken up 4-5 times that night because people were walking in and out. Also the mattress wasn’t super comfortable. However I would recommend it, because the staff was nice and it was clean.

    The staff was nice, the surrounding beautiful and it was clean.

    The room doesn't lock!!! No keys to access and lock the room! How weird! It's reserved for women only, but there's a men's room next door, and at any time anyone can get in! Unfortunately, I felt in danger. Fortunately, it was only for one night.

    Close to the airport, clean bed and balcony in the room

    It just wasn’t comfortable due to the lack of bathroom privacy and space. The bathroom stalls and showers are tiny and can get busy at times. Also, even though the staff were fantastic and cleaned around the clock, the bathroom had a perpetually lingering odor. Other than the airport and beach, most other things are further away. Also, the dorms do not have any locks or key cards.

    There are fantastic views, a nice patio area, and a spacious kitchen with four guest fridges. It’s close to the beach and the airport.

    - My towel was stolen - The showers and toilets are really small - Location. You need 20 Minutes to the next supermarket and 1 hour to get to Faro

    - Spacious room - Great kitchen area! - Outside area is cozy - Perfect for meeting other travellers - Really close to the airport

    Plastik sheets covered the matress, quite weird feeling. Superhot in the room. We had one fan, but it didn't change much. Bathroom was really dirty. 24h reception means also people get into the dorm at any time of the night and make themselves comfortable..

    Good location close to airport, you can walk there easily. One of the persons at reception helped me to get my luggage upstairs, which was nice. 24h reception. The person from reception was very aware of not entering the dorm for women.

    Hot with no AC. Given the price expected this to be honest.

    Good position. Cheap. Perfect for a stop over in a family room before moving on.
