Reception team wete very welcoming and accomodating. The only downside was towels onlyy got changed every 2 days if you wanted them daily there was a charge. If you wanted a safe there was a charge if you wanted to check in early there was a charge.

This place was perfect, right on the strip of bars and restaurants and pop up shops, also very close to the beach, almost on the beach as well. I reccommend this hotel to anyone going to Albueferia, and espcially if you like to party.

Nice hotel, staff were great! Location was right on the busy night life street so if you like going out it was the perfect location to that and beach

If you're not there for the all night party in the summer you may want to stay a little further from the Old Town Strip as it could be quite noisy being right on the strip.

In the perfect spot for a bit of nightlife and lounging at the beach. The private balcony was the star of the show. If you want to be in the middle of the action and close to the beach this is the place for you.

Very central and great location. You have everything around you from bars/restaurants and shops. The only problem we had is ants in the room/on the bed, but they helped us spraying the room. And you can expect mosquitoes.

I need you to look at OUR call history. You said that you would pay for my first night. They didn't even know who i was nore was my name was in their system. I was very lucky to get a room. For one night. Out of many nights I'll be here

Suprised only a 2 star, i would say 3 star. Spotlessly clean throughout, friendly staff. Cracking location for nighlife/amenities/restaurants & beach. Yes the rooms at the front are noisy until 3-4am but if your out till late, it doesnt matter anyhow. Would recommend to the night crowd amongst us.

Disaster for sleeping with the noise level on the streets. If your out till 4 in the morning this place might work

Location is great but very noisy at night. We did not have our room cleaned one day and would not provide clean towels.

Location was good if you don’t mind being in the middle of the party. The hotel supplied earbuds. The room and bathroom were tiny, but fairly modern. The beds were comfortable. It bothered me that they didn’t inform us that the towels were only changed every other day. We had put our dirty towels in a pile on the floor, clearly signalling that we needed new ones, but the housekeeper just picked them up and hanged them on a chair.

Hotel is in the center of the the nightlife. Room was small but clean. But they expect you to reuse the towels during your stay. I was there for two nights and they argued about exchanging the towels on the second day. They cleaned the room but wouldn’t change the towels. Absolutely bizarre!! Also no iron in the room and elevator is broken. Like I said before, location is great but service is seriously lacking.

Only positive of staying at this hotel was really the location. I am no longer at an age that I enjoy lodging next to the city's loudest bars. But that wasn't even the toughest part. I happen to be handicapped and I booked the hotel because it said there was an elevator. But in reality, there is a set of stairs that guest must use to get to the elevator. Fortunately I was able to get up the stairs and leave my wheelchair on the first floor.

We had a great trip to Albufeira and stayed at this hotel for a couple of nights. The hotel is located right in the party street but we didnt really pay much attention to the noice as long as the doors were closed. Staff was friendly. The room had a strong smell that was a bit nauseating so we had aired out the room for a few hours before we went to bed. The day after we put out a do not disturb sign on the door and asked the reception to tell housekeeping not to clean as we did not want the smell back. We returned and the room had been cleaned and the same smell was back. It was a bit annoying when we had spent so long yesterday airing out the room just for it to be back the next day, even after telling staff not to enter. The bathroom had some mold in the shower and it was starting to rust. Overall it was a nice experience and would probably come back if they stop spraying the scent in the room 👏

If you want to have any sleep at night, this isn’t the hotel. The location is such that there are bars next to the hotel and across where there is live and loud music until 4am daily. We were there 2 nights, and gave up after our first night and looked for another accommodation. When booking, they mentioned music stops at midnight, but that was a lie. I’ve also reached out to Expedia to see if they can add a note about the hotel and the volume, but with no luck. The rooms are extremely small, bathroom has mildew, shower faucets rusted. The walls are paper thin - you can hear your next door neighbours and people in corridors throughout the night. Wall plugs mostly don’t work, night lights don’t work. Housekeeping is poor - we kept towels on the ground to be changed, and instead they hung those towels again for use. The elevator is a floor above reception so you’ll have to climb the stairs to catch the elevator. The location is prime because you’re in the middle of everything, 2 minutes from the beach. However this isn’t a place I’d recommend to anyone, ever.

Noise is a big factor. I knew about the partying and we spent 3 days. Party goes on till 3 or 4am every day and they gave us ear plugs, but was hard to sleep. Beds comfortable, lots of dining options and shopping. Supermarket close by for water, beer any essentials.
