Good location and hotel was ok
Located about a 7 min walk from old town, so very close but also quiet. Pool was a good addition but always quite busy. Room wasn’t anything special but did the job. Not sparkling clean but nothing stood out as being uncomfortably dirty. Our biggest issue was that the listing said twin beds and they were small singles. Definitely wouldn’t recommend this to couples. Just a good place for a group of friends looking for a relaxing value for money holiday in Albufeira.

Good location. Tough to find and tough to inhabit
Hotel definitely needs a handyman. Toilet seats are loose (one is off the posts). Window panes rattle in the wind. Door handles are loose or don't turn. Cracks in the masonry. Almost impossible to find. No street signs and no # on the outside of the building. Garmin is in doubt as to the location. Only by asking locals did we locate the apt. No one on the desk. Only staffed occasionally. Beds are rock hard.

Well located
Location good, close to bars, restaurants, beach and marina Nice welcome from staff who were friendly and helpful Disappointed with apartment as walls were paper thin so could hear every slight noise, beds hard and uncomfortable with springs poking through and was quite dark even with the lights on. Plenty hot water but had to hold the shower head to wash yourself down as the fixture kept falling off the wall and spraying water everywhere. However, it was very clean with ample clean towels. Our stay was marred by drunken men making a racket a couple of mornings between 4.30am & 7am; generally behaving like louts swearing and shouting. They were old enough to know better and I'd be interested to know if they'd enjoy their stay if they wanted a relaxing break with their partners/families.

Good Location but poor service
It was convinient location, but otherwise really ** hotel at best. No service of any kind, nobody at re emotion. Pretty dirty kitchen with very old appliances and terrible smell. No A/C, which might be ok, but worth noting, as many folks might just assume it's probably acceptable accommodations for students, but not good for family, given many other, more comfortable and friendlier hotels around the area. We've requested to check out at 11:30am (instead of 11am) but owner ademantly refused any curtesy and banged on our door at 11am sharp as we were finishing packing.

Nice stay!
Great apartment. Super spacious with all the needed amenities... EXCEPT hot water. Kind of a bummer. When we checked in, Jose mentioned they are not around all the time and we are free to call them, but we did not have a phone, so it made this a bit difficult. We weren't sure if we could use the phone in our room to call, or if we would be charged if we did. Since there was no one ever around, it made asking these questions quite hard. We would leave the apartment around 9 am and no one was around...we checked. And often returned around 8-9 pm and no one was around (we checked). SO, we boiled water to shower every day. It was a bit annoying, but we managed. It would be nice if this was checked, or if there were people around, or if you had some kind of easier way to get in touch.

apartment very basic & requiring updating! But still very good value for the price paid! What I didn't appreciate was getting an email the day I arrived home accusing me of taking there hairdryer!
Response from Jose on 23 Jul 2016
Please note that we only asked about where was the hairdryer !!! That is no accusation !!! Kind regards

Well pleased
Firstly, very impressed with Carla and Jose who manage the place, Always on hand, nothing too much trouble, attended right away to any little thing required. Had trouble with contacting our transfare home, but Carla fixed it right for us. They made our stay a happy one and are a credit to there employers. Although the apartments were a little dated you could oversee it. Not suitable for people with mobility as there is no lift and three floors

Great bargain hotel in a really nice area. stayed for 5 nights and would definitely stay again. perfect for a sun-break / beach stay. rooms are dated, but clean and cool. the pool was quiet which was great, and it was also surprisingly deep. big perk of the hotel was its location, nicely tucked away from the "hustle and bustle" of the new town, but within eacy walking distance.

More than we expected!
When the bus dropped us off, right outside, and we rang the buzzer we were greeted by the owner, Carla. What a lovely person and excellent English. We were expecting a small studio with cooking facilities. My goodness. Full kitchen, eating area, sitting area, balcony with a view of the pool and ocean, a bathroom on each floor with the bedroom upstairs with the same view! It was spectacular! We are actually going back for 4 more days!

Great location!
We had a fab stay at the Rainha Leonor apartments. Carla and Jose were very welcoming and were very helpful throughout our stay. The rooms and pool area are basic but for what you pay for we had no complaints and the whole place was very clean and well maintained. We had a beautiful sea view from our balcony and would recommend requesting this if you stay here! The location is brilliant, 2 mins walk from the beach and 5 mins into old town where you can find an abundance of restaurants, bars, shops and entertainment. Would definitely consider staying again.

Very friendly, quiet and near to all amenities
Stayed for 2 weeks in a studio on the ground floor opening onto pool area. Room basic but OK, kitchen a little outdated regarding oven (very slow to heat), but had microwave, kettle and toaster and sufficient crockery cutlery and cooking utensils to prepare basic meals. Towels changed and room cleaned every second day. Our hosts Jose and Carla are probably the nicest people we have met in a long while, nothing was too much trouble, we only had to ask. A bar area provides a variety of drinks and simple snacks. Supermarket and several minimarkets very close by. Bus stop right outside hotel with very regular services to Albufeira. Car parking in street, places usually free, but a few less at weekends. Within 15 mins walking to Marina for food and excursions. 10 mins walk from the Old town and the beach (cliff lift NOT working). Seems like hundreds of bars and restaurants within 10 to 15 mins walk. If driving, signposts may be present, then again not!, it can be frustrating to get on the right road at times. BEST map is Reis Know-How map of the Algarve about £8, it can be found on line.

great location
looks a bit drab from the outside but don't be put off. The location is great a few minutes walk to the beach and old town. Our first floor studio apartment was good with a full size kitchen and bathroom and lovely views over the bay. the pool area was nice but only small and could be a bit tight in high season.

Viejo, cutre, caro
Alojamiento viejo, menaje de cocina literalmente para dos personas (2 platos, 2 vasos, etc...), suciedad en el baño, ruidos alrededor por mala insonorizacion, sofás para dormir en vez de camas con colchón de muelles barato, muy pequeño, y todo por un precio de 70€ la noche. Eso sí, a tres minutos andando del casco historico, y de la playa.

A localização é excelente, o ambiente é limpo e a recepção muito boa. No entanto as camas tem colchões muito duros e desconfortáveis. A mesma referência em relação ao sofá cama da sala. Dormir bem é fundamental para quem viaja. Sugiro uma melhoria neste aspecto.

Fantastisk beliggenhet. Burde ha mulighet til å bestille transport til/fra flyplass ved bestilling hos no.hotels.com og ikke pr tlf. Ingen betjening i resepsjonen utenom ved ankomst. Veldig lytt mellom leilighetene, ville ikke bodd der i høysesong. Meget bra renhold, nye håndklær hver2.dag. Gode senger. Radiatorovn for kalde/ rå kvelder. Tykke gode ulltepper om det ble kaldt. Stort kjøkken med bra elektrisk utstyr, bare høyst nødvendig kopper og fat. Egen stor varmtvannstank, litt svakt trykk på vannet. Fint bassengområde, ikke oppvarmet basseng. Toalett ikke tilgjengelig, siden baren var stengt. Måtte opp 3 etg. Lett adkomst til stranda rett nedenfor hotellet via trapper el heis. Lokalbuss rett utenfor hotellet. Dårlig info om bussruter. Mange flotte spisesteder i området. Koselig byområde. Mange benker rundt omkring. Trange gater, smale fortau og god del trapper.
