Casa D'Alagoa

The hostel is great. Cool people and a fantastic atmosphere!

I stayed five nights and I'm very happy with the hostel. The staff is friendly and invites you to participate in various activities and gives helpful advice. I especially want to highlight Jessica for her kindness. The place is huge with plenty of space to relax, the kitchen is very well-equipped, and everything was always very clean. Keep in mind that it is still a hostel, so some noise while sleeping is sometimes unavoidable, but in general, quiet hours in the common areas are respected. My only complaint is that it was very hot in the room since it only has a fan, not air conditioning.

We had a fantastic experience. The staff were incredibly kind and let us leave our luggage early. One of our friends had a migraine, and they thoughtfully allowed her to rest before we left. The only downside was that the fan was quite noisy! Otherwise, it's wonderful to see such thoughtful gestures still around! I highly recommend it.

A great place to grab a drink, with good views, very busy, the staff is super nice, totally recommended if you're in Faro

A very cozy and centrally located hostel; the vibe there is truly unbeatable. Unfortunately, it loses a point for charging an extra 5 euros for a towel and for the extremely squeaky beds.

Very, very friendly staff! The kitchen is well-equipped (cutlery, plates, pans, etc.) and there's free coffee in the morning :) I was able to check in early because my room was already ready. Whether I was lucky or not, I was very happy about that. Otherwise, you can also store your luggage for free. There's also a great rooftop terrace! The shared showers and rooms are clean! The only downside is the sometimes very noisy activity outside. The windows aren't really sealed, and you can hear every raindrop hitting them. Personally, I don't find that too bad; what's worse is the music, which you can still hear until 11:00 PM. The rooms are also next to the rooftop terrace, and if you're lucky (🥲), people will be talking right next to the window until late into the night. Unfortunately, you can't block it out with earplugs (or headphones); I tried. It might be different for everyone, though. Earplugs are available at reception. Otherwise, the hostel is in a really nice location. I find the €10 (cash) fee for the key unnecessary. This could only be charged if it's actually needed, i.e., if someone has already lost a key.

One of the best hostels I've stayed in. Friendly, helpful staff, clean bathroom and room, washing machine available for an extra charge, fully equipped kitchen, free coffee in the morning. Located right in the city center. I'd gladly stay again.

I loved my stay! Everything was spotless, great vibe, and quiet. The girls at the hostel were also wonderful (Lê and Gi). They were very organized in the group too, I loved their ideas!

Very pleasant, the hostel organizes parties every night (or almost). Activities and services. (Airport taxi). The staff is pleasant. And the premises are very decent. Small downside: no shampoo/shower available, hairdryer upstairs in shared bathroom. (Single room).

I missed the feeling of actually being in a hostel in Portugal. The vast majority of places I've stayed so far have been terrible. Casa d'Alagoa finally surprised me positively. The 8-person room I stayed in was great, with a balcony, a large locker, a good mattress and bedding, plus an outlet and individual light, a mirror in the room, and a place to hang towels and clothes. There were several bathrooms, both individual and shared, which were great, with a good shower and space between the shower and dressing area. The kitchen was very well equipped and the common areas were wonderful. The staff were excellent, from reception to cleaning, all with a traveler's spirit and who understand the essence of a hostel. I respect the quiet hours, and the 24-hour reception and cleaning are respected. A special thanks to the girls who were beautiful and helpful, always friendly and with a smile on their faces. Rebeca, I wish you success and much joy in Portugal. I recommend it wholeheartedly!

The best hostel I've ever stayed at!!! Don't be afraid to go! The atmosphere is welcoming, the common area is beautiful, the rooms are spacious, with private bathrooms and even hairdryers. Everything is lovely! They offer a variety of activities and make everything very clear. I was supposed to stay for three days and I even stayed an extra day because I loved it so much!!! I really want to go back!

Super great hostel! I'm here alone and Patrizia welcomed me in a really friendly way and she was really helpful. No matter what, you can always go to reception. You get to know new people here straight away (I'm in a 6-bed room) and the atmosphere is really harmonious, almost familial and the outside area is really cozy. I would come back here every time!

A very well located hostel, with many rooms. My bed cost me 15€ per night so not hard to be satisfied, comfortable bed and pillow. However disappointed that you have to drag your feet to get additional information, for what about padlocks, breakfast (not included). However the staff is nice and offers themed dinners which are very good even if above the price of restaurants on the quantity/price ratio. This is the right place if you are alone!

Welcoming, easy, clean, friendly... I can only recommend this youth hostel located in the heart of the old town. In addition to everyone's kindness, they offer varied activities and the Saturday evening BBQ is a must to meet. Thank you very much, my stay there was perfect!

Superb hostel with a beautiful outdoor space and terrace, pleasant rooms with high ceilings. Just bring earplugs for the 8/12-person dorms that overlook the street. Suggestion: offer them at low prices to save the nights of the most sensitive?

The friendliness of the staff alone makes it worth it. But that's not all, the good vibes, the positive messages, the decor, the amenities and the cleanliness of the place are truly phenomenal. We loved our experience.

A really nicely decorated hostel with a clean kitchen and bathrooms. We had friendly roommates and met lots of new people from all regions of the world :) Victor at the reception was very nice! The only negative point: a four-bed room is very close to the street and therefore very loud. There was also a Finn who was probably a little high and wasn't very averse to drugs ;)

Very well located. The hostel has comfortable beds, great service, tour booking services, bikes, and offers full dinners at a great price. The atmosphere is great.

An unexpected surprise. Very young staff, perfect English, clean rooms, and...dinner with a large table of their guests, featuring cod and good wine! The breakfast was more than plentiful. We will definitely be back and highly recommend it! Luisanna Carlo from Asti, Italy

Very friendly and helpful staff. Strategic location for the city center, the restaurant area, and the ferry departures to Faro Beach and the islands of the Ria Formosa National Park, where there are some very beautiful beaches. The night I arrived, I couldn't take a hot shower in my private room due to a problem that was resolved the next morning. I took one in the shared bathroom on the floor where the dormitories are located. After breakfast, you have to wash your own dishes and glasses. It's a great place for young people.
