Just back from a quick, no fuss holiday. My partner chose this hotel on the very good reviews it had. If your looking for a five star stay this isn't it, but if you want value for money, tidy clean rooms (tv & fridge), friendly staff, close to beach & restaurants then look no further. As other reviews have stated... More

Vila Recife is incredible value. Nothing fancy but it ticks every box. Rooms are spacious and very clean - our room was always immaculate when we returned to it. Beds are comfortable, though you may struggle to get a double bed, and the balcony is minute, just room for one chair, but great views from here across the old town... More

This hotel is an amazing find based on the prices. I stayed as part of group of girls and i think we paid £8 each per day for a twin room. Cannot complain. Positives: Close to the square but not in a noisy area. Surrounded by restaurants and supermarkets. Nice bar and hot sun trap in the day. Decent sized... More

We stayed here for 4 nights in early May and booked 2 rooms, one for myself and my husband and one for my mother. We were provided rooms 300 and 300A which are directly across from reception. Immediately we asked for another room as we were concerned about noise but the receptionist said the hotel was full. The room itself... More

We stayed here for a short break and we weren't disappointed. The hotel though fairly basic, is very clean and has everything you need. Staff were friendly and the location is great for exploring the town. Sadly there is no Wifi, though if you go to Eddie's Bar directly across the road you can log in there. Food isn't cheap... More

We booked in for a 6 day stay, the hotel itself is basic as reflected in the room rate. We were allocated room 113 which was clean and tidy with a small terrace which had no view of anything apart from a brick wall. Each room has its own hot water system which starts to run out as you shower,... More

Lovely hotel in a great location, just on the outskirts of the old town of Albufeira, five minute walk down the cobbled streets to the shops, cafe's and restaurants or beautiful beach. Hotel is spotless clean and the maids cleaned every day throughout. Small room but it was comfortable and had a fridge and crockery. Bathroom was very modern and... More

We stayed here in June for our 2nd time. A perfect location for meals in the old town. & 5mins walk to the beautiful beach. It may be a little daunting for those unsteady on their feet as there are a lot of steps.
