Good hostel, but with a number of problems. Positives: (1) Bedrooms and communal areas are clean and comfortable (2) Dorm beds are cosy with privacy curtains, which is a big plus (3) Bathroom facilities are numerous and very clean (4) WiFi is excellent throughout. Negatives: (1) The smoking area is completely open to the communal areas, so when sitting in the lounge or dining areas you can smell smoke, it’s very unpleasant, and could easily be resolved (2) Charging €3 for towel hire is just price-gouging when you can buy a cheap towel for less. Also the €15 dinner option is expensive for a hostel, you can certainly have a great meal in Faro for less (3) Beds should have USB sockets as the electrical sockets are temperamental with adaptors (4) It’s near impossible to get hot water in the kitchen or bathroom sinks. Showers are fine. Not hygienic especially when guests are washing dishes for the next guest (5) The shared bathroom showers are excellent but the toilets need better privacy, they are too exposed. Insulating them like the ground floor toilets would be ideal. Finally, sadly there is no breakfast option but there is fresh coffee on tap and the kitchen is well-equipped, although usually busy.
