    Had a great stay during Christmas! the staff were really friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable. the hotel's location was perfect, with everything within walking distance, including bars, restaurants, and shops. the proximity to the harbor and bus station was a major plus, making it easy to explore the city and travel to other destinations. the room was clean and had all the necessary amenities, including a well-equipped kitchen.

    One drawback was that the room was a bit small, especially for two people. the lack of storage space, like a wardrobe or bedside table, was inconvenient.

    The nearest airport is conveniently close, so I didn't have to spend much time traveling back and forth. The hostel's location is great, with lots of attractions nearby.

    Oh, I just loved not being able to control the temperature in my room. Sweating or freezing, what a delightful surprise!

    the host, a true gem, greeted me warmly even though I arrived way past their bedtime. the spotless surroundings and helpful amenities made my trip a breeze. A few wall scuffs didn't bother me as I was too busy soaking up the area's charm. All in all, a fantastic stay! .

    We really enjoyed our 10-day stay at Albergaria Formosa. Filipe, our host, provided excellent assistance and made our stay even more enjoyable. The room was comfortable and the open balcony style courtyard made the place feel spacious. Having access to a shared kitchen and fridge space helped make our stay more economical. Additionally, the hotel's central location near the old city, ferry, train, and bus stations was very convenient.

    Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    The nearest airport was just a hop, skip, and a jump away, making my departure a breeze. And let's not forget the delightful walk to Vilamoura Marina, where I enjoyed pretending I could afford a yacht.

    Oh, how I adored the teeny, tiny room that refused to let me open the window or breathe fresh air. Truly a masterpiece in claustrophobia.

    We had a fantastic stay at Albergaria Formosa! the hostel manager, Filipe, was incredibly friendly, helpful, and made our stay even better. the location of the hostel was perfect, with the central bus station and train station just a few minutes away. There were plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby, as well as mini markets that stayed open late. the rooms were clean and quiet, and we loved having access to the small kitchen where we could make our own meals.

    The twin room at Albergaria Formosa was cozy and comfortable, with a private bathroom that had a refreshing shower. As a young family, we loved the homely feel of the room and appreciated having our own space to relax.

    Personally, we found that the coffee machine in the room didn't meet our expectations. However, others may still enjoy the convenience it offers.
