Reading the other reviews I can see the point of them all but in this type of place - with such limited facilities, at such cheap prices then if things go wrong they are likely to go very wrong. The bathrooms were pokey but clean, the terrace was awful and the staff were strange. But, I don't think many people... More

I am a student, studying in Spain. Just got back from Faro, stayed here for four nights. I would have rather stayed on the streets. Free breakfast= piece of bread and jam-butter Bathrooms= disgraceful, and hard to get Bedrooms= cramped, almost impossible to get in and out of easily Staff= nice, but one of the workers drank our BOTTLE OF...

We planned a long weekend in Faro and since we wanted to experience the town's athmosphere and Faro Lounge seemed pretty central, we booked it. Mistake. Our plane arrived at 13.00, we quickly got to the hostel, where they made us wait until 15.00 (check-in time). After paying for the double room and the breakfast tat was according to the... More

We had booked double bed room several months before we arrived in faro. When we got there they gave us a "room" (actually it was a lumber room) without windows (!!) and maybe 4m². Just don't go there! More

My experience with Faro Lounge Guest house is simply a disgrace. I decided to go to Faro with some friends and we booked 3 nights at the Faro Lounge Guest House. In order to have a confirmation and few details about the facilities and transport, I sent them two emails the week before our trip. Both of them stayed without... More

This is definitely the worst hostel I've ever stayed in. The dorms are extremely cramped and with no AC are hot and claustrophobic all night. The three sorry-looking bathrooms are ill-equipped to cater for the disproportionate number of guests and bathroom queues are all too common. I'd suggest that the owner actually live as a guest in this place -... More

I booked a night for two people from the Faro Lounge website. Never got the official confirmation though. I also sent an email asking if I have room or not. Unfortunately for us I got the answer too late, actually I got the answer for my inquiry after I was already in Spain (two days after we had left Faro).... More

We booked 'Faro Lounge' 2 days before we arived for a single night based on excellent rating from trip advisor cheap price (£17 pp) and good location. When we arrived we meet nice friendly staff but were given a mumbled excuse about issues with website available. They offered that we stay in their other hostel around the corner. While I... More
