I'm a travel agent and travel a lot with my job.
Other reviews are correct it's more of a basic 3*, rather than a 4*. I believe the rating is from the old rating, where the ratings were based on what they offer a customer, which have now changed since TripAdvisor.
Back in the day, you can see that this was a really good hotel. But very little has been done to it since, with its up keep and moderation.
✈️If you like your holidays based on staying at your hotel on an all inclusive. I don't think this is the hotel for you. The facilities are nothing compared to modern day 4* all inclusive hotels,
✈️If you are someone who just uses the hotel as a base. This is great, as the kitchen is basic but enough for what you need and a large supermarket and fast food options just a short walk away. Beach and old town Albufeira is about a 10minute walk down hill.
TIP) For about six Euros all day use, there is the tourist train. Pick up a short walk away and it's good for getting around. Takes you to the beach area and another 4 points. Great if you are trying to save time if on a short trip.

Nice and clean hotel but old fashioned. Needs updating, Otherwise lovely. Food in hotel bar was not nice, would avoid. Breakfast however in Oh La Late at the front of the hotel was beautiful in presentation and taste.

We are here now and have 4 nights in total at this hotel. Honestly it’s not as bad as some of the reviews make it out to be, you get what you pay for it’s a cheap getaway. It definitely isn’t a 4 star 3 star at most. Rooms are dated and worn but still very good to stay in. Location is great everything is within walking distance from the hotel. Staff were lovely when checking us in. Would I stay again for another cheap getaway? Yes.

Rooms are very basic but the hotel is large with a lot in it. The gym is €8 per use which is pretty annoying although the women stated it’s an outside company, I would expect a hotel that is 4 stars to offer a gym included in the price. The tattoo studio offers photos with no price and no one around to speak to. The indoor pool is brilliant and great for winter. The outdoor pool was quiet but it was not warm weather.
Had Santa’s grotto for the children & music playing in the bar area.
The room had everything we needed for a 3 night stay with a store in the hotel which was good.
I assume in summer this hotel could be great even more than the 3 star I am giving due to seeing a lot of stuff for children and a pool bar that is closed for the season. We did not pay a lot of money to come here so I would say it’s great value.
