Residencial Dandy Reviews

A very nice place to stay with very helpful and friendly staff! My room had no windows but this enabled me to sleep without disturbance of any street noise and thought it was great for the money! The doors are closed at 11pm for added security, but the staff were willing to let me in when I returned after a night out! Communication with the staff was not a problem as the lady was able to speak to me in English or Portuguese.

I only needed a one night stay as I was going to the airport the next morning - and for that it served its purpose. I paid £20 and got clean double bed, tv in room and clean bathroom at the end of the hall. I agree with the review which compared it to a funeral parlour, the building is decorated very strangely indeed with holy statues, African masks and paintings cluttering up the walls and corridors.

very good location, but being diretly in the centre of the town, the place is very noisy. most importantly - clean and safe:)

The hostel looks very friendly, also from the inside. It has a real Portugese feel to it. My room was nicely decorated. The shared bathroom was clean. I was there for only one night. I would go there again, only not in the same room because it had no windows or fresh air and was located directly behind the reception desk. The walls could use some isolation as well: the snoring of my neighbour kept me out of my sleep!

Good location, very cheap, was more than adequate for what I needed but owner is a bit unfriendly and place was a bit tatty

We found this a lovely hostel with cute kitchen and balcony area. The staff were extremely helpful. We would definitely stay there again. So close to faro airport too and cheap Cafe o Seu right across the road.

Enjoyed our stay, good value for money, great location but room was very small!

nice place and friendly staff, surprising decoration of the interior, but we liked it a lot !

Arrived late at night, thankfully somebody waiting up for me. Lovely clean room and comfortable room where I had a restful night. Left early in the morning after nice hot shower. Definitely recommend.

Located in the ugly side of the city. The old man as a receptionist probably din't even know english because said about 5 words (total) to us. The place is clean though and quiet.

Go to Lagos, nothing to do in Faro. Front door left open all night. Interior design was way too gaudy with statues and a lot of green plants, made me feel really uncomfortable. Lonely planet says it makes you feel like you're in a funeral parlor, and I agree. If you book a single private you may get my room - in the basement, no windows, musty smell, and you feel like you're living in a cellar.

Nice family run place, with awesome library, very helpful staff with excellent knowledge of area.
