Big warning!! I booked a room at this pension, paid 7 euros with my Visacard and got a confirmation e-mail. When I arrived there with my son, it turned out there were no room for me. After some arguing they offered to help me to get a room at another pension in a totally different part of the town, which I accepted. At the second place I paid in cash. When I came back to Sweden I realized that Recidencial Madalena took 50 euros from my account! I didn't even stay there. So I thought there was a mistake, but since then I have (with the help of a portuguese friend) tried to get in contact with the owner to get my money back, but he's hiding, still no money back. Clearly he's done this before. So - DON'T BOOK A THIS PLACE!!
The hostel is located at center of Faro but you have nothing to do there. The description say "fridge" and doesn't have. The owner (or in charge) is always in bad humor. And more important: they "reserved" the total cost of your booking without notice you in advice (very bad custommers policy)!!
Its a kind of B&B. My bedroom was very nice. The location is perfect. The breakfast was ok. I just had a problem in get in touch with them before arrive. Because i changed my plans and decided stay just one night so i sent an email informing them about it but i did not get any replay and when i arrived they thought i did not come anymore. But in the end i got a bedroom.
No Hostel, but a Pension. Internet only with own computer. Boss is ok and breakfastlady friendly, but overstrained. Rooms old, but cheap.
