Hit and Miss

First impression, it was difficult to reach the contract to gain access and then it was done over the phone, no personal face to face meeting. Small room, squeaky bed, small bathroom were my wife nearly fell into the shower only I caught her because there is no room between the door and shower tray. The walls are paper thin and the people next door talked late into the night preventing us sleeping properly. The smell of cigarette smoke in the corridor outside the room was nasty and some of the breakfast dishes were stained with food and the tables not cleaned from the previous users when we arrived for breakfast. The breakfast selection was fairly decent and the house is nice place, nicely designed just a pity we got the basement with the paper thin walls and tight Location is convenient for VRSA, Monto Gordo getting onto the A22 for Spain or Faro. Overall I think if I was there at the different time and had a room on the upper level I'd have scored differently.

Nice place, basis breakfast, but enough to start your day off. Yoghurt, bread, jam and marmalade , cheese and ham. Tea Coffee and Orange juice. Swimming pool in the garden. Easy and free parking outside on the quiet road. Only close to one cafe bar restaurant. Suitable for drinks and snacks. Had to drive to find other places, but only 2 to 3 km.

Great value for the money

We had a great staym the room was comfortable and the price was excellent. The only problem was that we were in room 1 and we could hear the couple in room 2 very clearly. Then they took a very long time in the shared bathroom. The walls could use some insulation for the noise. The breakfast was great! Scrambled eggs, toast with a variety of things to put on it, cereal, juice, coffee. Next time i will book a room with a bathroom. But i plan to return. Great place overall.

We didn't realize that this was a bed and breakfast when we booked it, but it was surprisingly quiet and comfy. Great for a few nights. Beds and pillows were really comfy! Had a little breakfast in the morning. Pool was clean but we didn't have time to use it. We would have only liked better TV and Internet connection as it was spotty and kept going out.

Clean pleasant stay.

Clean accomodation but could do with bigger shower cubicle in Studio apartment. Good location in residential area with 10 min walk to beach. Real Pao local bar / shop was handy for necessities. Could have improved the breakfast which was convenient in the guesthouse. But overall it was a pleasant stay for the area.

MĂ©diocre

La chambre Ă©tait petite, matelas et literie ayant trop vĂ©cu. Pas de housse de couette. Pas une fois le balai a Ă©tĂ© passĂ© en 1 semaine. Petit dĂ©jeuner dĂ©cevant manquant de choix et de qualitĂ© y compris le cafĂ©. MĂȘme pas la possibilitĂ© d emprunter un sĂšche cheveux. Salle de bain et parties commune avec des poils pubiens. Aucun nettoyage mĂȘme vider la poubelle il fallait demander. Fuite dans la salle de petit dĂ©jeuner ...un fiasco et une mentalitĂ© pour la patronne de l Ă©tablissement plus que dĂ©sagrĂ©able. Grosse dĂ©ception. Nous avons prĂ©fĂ©rĂ© partir et ne pas finir le sĂ©jour
