A good hotel at a good price.

The hotel room was a bit tired and dated but very clean. No kettle in the room but on asking one was supplied. The breakfasts were amazing. All nationalities catered for. A microwave was also available if the food needed to be hotter. Walkable into Albufeira. Far enough away from the Razzamataz. Swimming pool available with a nice sun lounge area.
