Great for a simple stay with no expectations
Pros:

The breakfast buffet was really small, but there was enough coffee and some tasty chocolate pastries ! Would have loved some local fruits or so.
The staff was always very helpful, but seemed confused often and in the two days I was there I felt like I saw way too many different faces at the reception.
The room was very simple. But I want to praise the very nice duvets (different from usual portuguese standards where there is a simple sheet with a comforter on top), very hygienic!
The location is fantastic, as it is two steps from the sandy beachfront.

Cons:

The shower could have been cleaner (quite dirty deposits that needed good scrubbing).
The mattress was uncomfortable !

Pros:

Close to beachfront and lots of cafes. Very friendly, genuine and helpful staff.
Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

Breakfast was terrible. Don't pay for the included breakfast, it's definitely not worth it.
Rooms are old and not updated well.
