Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: My all time favourite place to stay at in Faro. Keep your key on you at all times, there was a guest who kept locking herself out and others too if we happened to be in the kitchen/on the terrace without our room keys. Not the hostel's fault, there are forgetful/inconsiderate guests sometimes. Karin at the reception was helpful, the place is clean and well equipped.
Summary: A firm favourite
