The value paid is interesting, but they need to greatly improve the cleanliness of the toilets and put curtains in the rooms because it has great clarity.

Since I read previous reviewes I was expecting the worst of the worst but I was pleasnt surprised. The room me and my firend got was as on the pictures. Quiet big room with two small balconies, bathroom separated from the room, quite clean. Tv wasn t working, but the heater did. Anyway it was quite loud during the night, but not to much :) For the price we paid we couldn t get any better room.

This hostel is Low Cost for sure - you save a buck but it's not a pleasant place to stay. The cleaning ladies smoke indoors and talk very loudly in Portuguese in the morning. The beds are very hard and there were holes in our floors, lamps that didn't work, etc.

You should avoid this hostel at all when you dont feel like sleeping in a garage full of mold. Our room was as cold as a fridge during the night because neither the window nor on of the doors could been closed. All in all it was a mess and we didnt feel home although we are all hostel experienced and like to stay at those places. To sum it up, in this hostel its just all about earning money fast and caring less! But there are probably better options in the city of Faro-so look out for those!

It's not the cleanest of hostels but it's in a good location and not a bad idea if you're looking for something low cost.

What a disaster this place is. Luckily I was just staying a night to meet up with a friend flying in. Staff were nice enough, but lord the place is shady. If you need a cheap bed for a night, I guess give it a try...but dont expect a legitimate "hostel".

The room smelled of ashtray and had a window into the common room only. The kitchen was dirty. For the price it´s quite ok, but I recommend to stay not more than two nights.

A very nice place to stay if you want to travel around south of Portugal.

Creepy place. Smart idea with a fake window (you take the curtain up and tadaa! just wall there) didn't actually work for me. Can't imagine this place in summer. Painting walls brown is not the best solution too - room looked very dark and def not cozy. Since I was there in winter I got a heater, but using it equals hard choice - staying without light or freezing. For this price acceptable, but not higly recommended.

It was quite good place for stay. We were there in January, so no many people were there. This hostel wasn't special, but our stay there was nice. I think so, that's ok.
