Location was great- NOT in the flight path. Communication was v. good e.g. code for entry very clearly transmitted & we were well informed BOTH by text & mail. Place was kept v. clean even though a few rooms were using the same facilities .... is there a invisible cleaner?!

There are still a few little things to finish off .... in the room: More hooks on the wall ... so you can hang a towel when drying! or a chair? A simple shelf? so you can leave a few things on it. The wooden shelving in Room 2 was useful but because of the slats - small things fall through .... Re: the shower room - a few more hooks to hang things up, a RISER on the wall for the shower PLEASE!! The window!!!! This was the biggest issue for us n Room 2 - the lack of air entering the room ...... Long-term, there needs to be simple blinds fitted (thermal?) to reduce the heat!!!! .... or a bigger window! These simple things would bring the room to another level - the room is nicely done; just needs the 'details' to be finished

The place was very clean and close to a Lidl market, a public hospital and pharmacies. The privet room was comfortable and had a heater and air conditioning.

We run out of hot water to take shower and there is no kitchen at all, just a microwave and a fridge, no plates and glasses at all.

This place is easy to find and well located for shops,bars and amenites. A 10 minute walk gets you to the forum and bus links between faro terminal and the airport.staff are friendly helpful and curtious A fridge and a microwave are available to use in the lobby

There is only one W,/C which could be oversubscribed if all rooms are let out. W/C could benefit from an extracor wired into the light or sensor it looked an easy fit over the false ceiling to the oitside world.. There was no A/c in the room but a large fan wss supplied

The facility was better than we expected. The location is beautiful, in a safe area, you can easily reach the center by walking a little. Although there is a shared bathroom toilet, we did not have any problems. The other people who stayed were also very decent people. There is a refrigerator, microwave oven, etc. in the common area. There is no reception, they tell you what to do beforehand, by mail and message, we had no problems. They set up a good system.

Not being able to open the windows and ventilate the room. But there is air conditioning.

Rather good location, clean basic hostel with fridge (shared kitchen space), shower and toilet. We were happy to have air conditioning in our room! Good value for the money :)

We missed some place in the room to hang our clothes to dry :(

Location is close to Lidl and about 2km away from old town. Room is clean and nice. It was cold but there is a heater in the room. There is no reception but I communicated on Booking and it was very helpful. Definitely recommend

It does what it says on the tin- budget friendly, very clean and the heater warms up very quickly which is good. Rooms are very big.

The shower had low pressure but other than that, it was very good.

What made me like this hostel is the fact that as soon as I opened the bedroom door all I could smell was this fresh smell of cleanness. Very impressed.

The only thing I didn’t like was the fact that there was no tv in the room. It would have been nice to have a little tv.

Great food waste management system It had a closet where you could leave your staff in case you don't need it when you leave, for someone else to take it. It seemed to me such a great ideea for food/product waste management. 👏👏👏👏 Close to the airport and city as well 👍

It looked like it is improvised in an office, with very thin walls but it was actually really nice and good place to stay for a night.
