Great for a few days in Praia da Rocha
Pros:

The staff was super helpful. I had a late check-in because of flight delays, and they helped me with the flat keys.
The location is perfect if you want to enjoy Praia da Rocha. It's a 3-minute walk to the beach and a 2-minute walk to bars and restaurants.
It's a 10-minute drive to Portimão town and a 20-minute walk to Portimão's marina.
The beds are comfy, and there's a hot shower. Plus, a full kitchen and a nice balcony.
They also have nice coffee and snacks on the ground floor.

Cons:

Shower leaking to the floor.
Pillows weren't comfortable.
Entrance door needs some repairs.
In general a little bit dated.

I was very happy with my stay and the room enhanced my visit to portimao
Pros:

the included ice tray was very useful and all the pans and other kitchen tools made it possible to make a wide range of foods, the price was reasonable for location and facilities. very comfortable for a one person stay and probably would've still held up very nicely for a two person trip.

Cons:

There wasn't any oven, and the cooking surfaces were a bit small which made it harder to use both spots at the same time.
