The staff is friendly and the location is very central. The building is a cool old house with plenty of hang out spaces inside and outside. The kitchen also has everything you need. The small buffet breakfast was included which had everything I wanted. The BBQ on Saturday night was a good value and very social. The live guitar music on Monday was also really nice.

I really liked the location and building itself with outside sitting areas and patio in the historic district, easy to walk to waterfront, theater, shopping, train and bus station and also it sits on a historic square with trees and flowers. The Staff was very friendly, efficient and fun ! Location is one of the best to experience Faro! I would definitely stay there again when visiting Faro! Organized dinners and events also are fun as well and Sangria is also great !

The most amazing Hostel. Everything about him is perfect. The room, the kitchen, the atmosphere and especially the Staff. I needed 2 favors that I'm pretty sure almost every Hostel wouldn't do it and they just simple help me without anything in return. I really recommend them to anyone that wants a good Hostel.

The shower in my room needs a renovation.
The overall experience was good and the staff was very friendly. The happy hour is great and it is nice that you can buy drinks (water, beer..) on site. Breakfast was ok but basic. I would come back to this place.

They offered a barbecue for 20 €, which was a fair price for meat-eaters, because drinks were included as well. But for me as a vegeterian it was just way to expensive and unfair to charge the same price!!!
Awesome Terrace. Good location, friendly staff :)

There were only 2 bathrooms + 1 toilet that were functional through the property. The other shower areas were closed for maintenance. It wasn't too much of an inconvenience, but would've helped to know beforehand.
The Location was super. You also had the option of having a home cooked meal with the fellow travellers for a small price. The free breakfast was fairly nice as well.

No air conditioning, so it could be hot in the room. No lockers. Strange plastic mat under bed sheets, which makes a little noise at night.
Very beautiful house and patio zone with the roof. Good breakfast and super friendly staff.
