It's my second home which is far from home. Welcoming staff, friendly atmosphere, sweet breakfast and amazing coffee, clean rooms and bathrooms, wonderful view from the roof terrace. I miss it. And I would like to come back one day (🤭 and it supposed to be my 4th visit)

* the location is walking distance to the historical city center and the bus terminal, from where you can take the bus to the beach. The street where it is is not pretty though and though it probably is, I did not feel too safe walking on it.

“Spend at least 2 days in Faro as the town is lovely.”

Lack of a common room in which you are free to meet, talk to others, read or work on a computer. There are just 2 sofas and a TV but they are in the reception room so you get the ongoing people checking in and out. The kitchen is very small with a little table and 4 chairs. Fridge was a bit of a mess. The dorms are right in front of the reception so they are a bit noisy as check in is 24hs. No dorm room can be closed with a key, so anyone from that room or not, can enter at any time, day or night. The private rooms are located on the second floor so they are much less noisy.
Location is absolutely excellent for the proximity of public transport. The train is only 100 meters away but the bus stop is practically in front of the entrance door. Buses to and from the airport run all day from 6am to midnight and cost only € 2.35 The dormitory’s beds are comfortable and spacious. The hostel overlooks directly on a main street and with the windows open could be a bit noisy but all the windows are double glazed so when closed the street’s noise is absent. There is a small supermarket up close to the hostel, very handy to get last minute things and there is a big one less than 10minutes on foot which also has freshly squeezed orange juice. The old town, the pedestrian streets, shops, restaurants and the seafront with bars and cafes are all at very short walking distance.

The rooms are a bit noisy because of the road. And it would have been nice to include a towel in the price.also, the 4 bed dorm was a bit cramped, it would probably be quite difficult if there was 4 people in that room.
The location is very central, the staff was very accomodating with my bicycle, and the internet is quite fast. And everything is very clean.

The location was a bit noisy due to the local traffic, plus other guests in my dorm kept the electric fans on all night, although I must admit the heat was stifling when I stayed there.
The young staff were really friendly and helpful. The hostel’s location was very convenient, being literally a stone’s throw from the train station and a couple of minutes’ walk from the bus station and the old town.

“It’s alright if you’re looking for a private room in a hostel setting, but don’t expect too much.”

The bathroom was not in good shape. Though it looked clean, there was unflushed items in the toilet. Water pressure for the toilet and shower was very low. I picked this place because of the distance from the train station, since my luggage wasn’t easy to move around (I had a bicycle with me). I checked in at night to find out that my room is in another building 3 blocks away. That’s tough to accept after a long day of travel.
The large living room and back garden was nice though I didn’t really use it.

The staff were amazing and really cared. I felt like part of the family and will miss you guys so much! It has great options of planning something with others or just chill out in the sun on the rooftop terrace. The location couldn't be better, with the old town, train, bus and ferry very close. The traffic at night might be a bit noisy in room 4 if you leave the window open, but that is expected with the location The place was kept clean and tidy. I can recommend this place to any traveller, whether you just want to stay for one night to get to the airport or for a 2 week stay.

The bathrooms were honestly disgusting. I stayed here two nights and I purposely avoided showering on the second day and waited to get to my next accomodation. Even wearing flip flops in the shower does not help - the drains are clogged and the water fills up everywhere, it just didn’t look like it was ever cleaned and I never saw the staff cleaning them while I was there. Room was right next to a busy road as well so it was loud and difficult to sleep, room was also extremely hot. I was glad to leave
The staff were very friendly. The wifi worked well
