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 staff was professional and friendly that was available to answer questions.

* 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.

Located close to center. Beds were comfy. Hostel staff was very nice and helpfull. Clean bathrooms and little bit of outside space. Close to train and bus station.

More like a home away from home! The owner and staff are great, it's clean, the atmosphere is friendly and open. I enjoyed it so much I booked a different flight so I could stay longer! The location is also very convenient, so exploring the town and beaches is super easy.

Kelli, United States of America

I booked a bed at Hostel 33 just a few hours ahead because my plan changed and I needed a place to stay at for the night in Faro. It was good that there were beds available, so it is an option for a spontaneous booking. The hostel had a great rooftop terrace to socialize. The staff are kind and helpful, they work hard to welcome/take care of the guests. Happy to having met the girls working there :-)

Milaniam, Germany

The staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. Less then a minute walk from the train station which was great.

Staying here feels more like a home than a hostel! Everything is new, clean and well designed, making it a really confortable place. The staff take pride in making a great atmosphere and making sure all the guests are happy

Very friendly staff, good facilities and a very warm feeling to the place. Also a good location in the heart of Faro next to the train and bus station.

It was more difficult to find the place compared with other ones
Upon my late arrival I was given all relevant information - breakfast times, bed number, check out time etc. The beds were comfortable, had sockets at the end of each one, a shared fan which we didn’t need to use and a locker provided next to the bed. All bed linen was provided and there were 3 bathrooms with showers, which was more than enough for all of us to use, there was never a queue. The breakfast was simple with as much bread/toast, jam, butter, Nutella, yogurt and different types of cereal as you wanted. The staff were so friendly and the hostel was quite small compared with other ones I had been in so we all knew each other which made it so much better. It was always so clean and there weren’t times that you had to be out of your room for cleaning. The outdoor Terrance stew was a good place to chill at night with everyone, there was a beer machine and non-alcoholic options which you could buy at the hostel. The location was great, less than 5 minute walk from the train and bus stations and very close to the old town/ centre. It’s near Faro marina and I would recommend the desert island tour from one of the huts along the front

“Poor value for money and problems with the staff.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Double Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
During my stay (4 nights), the room/bathroom was cleaned only once. On the cleaning day, a bag with a pair of shoes had disappeared from my room! I found it in the reception room! No explanation could be given. The hostel had a problem with cashing from my credit card. I agreed to pay the missing 100 € in cash. However, they refused to immediately give me a receipt. They told me, for technical reasons this could only be done 5 hours later. Compared to the room rate, the breakfast was rather poor. The small balcony of the room was surrounded by a high wall (see photo).

Got a very noise roommate so at certain point I asked to stay in the common area (with sofas ) been told “u can’t stay here “with no explanation (the other employee the following morning told me that in the night they keep them available for night staff (??) not even a sorry or the chance to be offered a different room . Some kind of understanding wold been appreciated. The guy who dealt with me on that night was really unfriendly probably not made for a customer facing role . Eventually been awake the whole night. The pots for cereals / cacao powder / juices were dirty and even broken . I suggest to use single portion of butter , not nice find trace of bread and jam of other customers ....disgusting . Not to mantion the shower s cleanness :/ Definitely not raccomended .

The double room was not at the same place than the hostel but still at equal distance from Faro center so it was OK. It is about 5 to 10min walking distance from the hostel. You need to walk to the hostel to get your breakfast The room was in a home witch was very hot and humid but the room has aircon so it was fine.
We had a whole house for us, there is a kitchen, living room and a backyard you ca use.

Rooms are small, no ac - hot at night and the window must stay open facing a noisy street. Facilities are not well maintained and dirty, esp showers, also the kitchen and the rooftop terrace. Breakfast was a joke. Overall a terrible stay, good that it was only for 1 night. Would not reccomend.
The location is convenient if travelling to/from Faro - close to the bus/train stations and the airport. 24hr reception, staff was okay.

Fan is not sufficient for small 4-bed rooms where the windows cannot be opened during the night (traffic noises, street lamps). Breakfast is ok, cleaning the cutlery with the same dirty sponge is questionable.

“One night and I just wanted to get out of there!”
- • Leisure trip

- • Bed in 8-Bed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 1 night

* the mattress is so thin you basically sleep on the bed structure * your hand luggage won't fit in the locker so you gotta put it on the floor, that's how i realize how dirty it was. I guess the floor under the bed hadn't seen a broom in weeks. * the bathrooms floors and showers were equally disgusting * the lockers are super old and they're tin, so they make a screeching sound every time you open them. Do that at 4 am trying to get ready without walking up the whole floor like i had to. Feels great. * the room was facing the main road, which sees heavy traffic all day so it was like sleeping in the street. (Well, "sleeping"). The options were: close the window and get your air from a dirty disgusting fan covered in dust or keep the window open, breath, but not sleep at all bc of the street noise. We had to choose no.2.
* 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.
