  Liked: Position

  Disliked: DO NOT STAY HERE, we have stayed in many places in.many countries, but have never had such a bad experience as this place, very dangerous stairs, very narrow steep, uneven steps. Doors 600mm wide, dirty, no hot water in the kitchen Really booking.com needs processes in place to monitor continual bad reviews, ultimately they are the ones renting it out. The local agents DREAMAGAVAR, d o not respond to any messages.

  Worst accommodation I’ve ever stayed in- Ant infestation, broken facilities and dismissive staff – do not waste your mon

  Liked: Absolutely nothing. Probably the worst accommodation I’ve ever paid to sleep in.

  Disliked: This was genuinely one of the worst accommodation experiences we have had in years. We understood this was budget accommodation and did not expect luxury, but basic standards of cleanliness, maintenance, safety and customer service were completely absent. The property felt like a badly improvised conversion rather than a proper studio apartment. The so-called “kitchenette” was effectively an outdoor balcony that had been crudely boxed in with partition walls that still had visible holes and gaps to the outside. It felt unfinished, poorly constructed and honestly not suitable as proper accommodation. The biggest issue was the ants. Because the kitchen area was effectively outdoors, there were ants in the cupboards, on the fridge and eventually inside the bedroom and bed area as well. We even found ants crawling on my partner while in bed. We had to keep all food locked inside the fridge for the entire stay to stop further infestation. Completely unacceptable. There was no hot water in the kitchen area, meaning we had to boil the kettle repeatedly just to wash dishes. The kettle itself balanced dangerously on top of a wobbly fridge because of the uneven flooring. The terrace was filthy when we arrived despite being one of the main advertised features. After complaining, someone came to clean it but the effort was laughably poor and we ended up cleaning it ourselves. Whenever it rained, dirt and debris washed straight down from the roof and covered the terrace again. The sliding terrace door barely functioned, constantly jammed and did not properly lock. I trapped my fingers multiple times trying to close it. Combined with the fact the internal bedroom door also could not lock, the property felt insecure and badly maintained. The WiFi never worked at all during the stay despite us reporting it early on. The network could not even be found. Nothing meaningful was done about it and we had to waste our own mobile roaming data instead.

  Liked: The location is amazing, the balcony is nice, with sun in the morning. Our stay was overall enjoyable, with the big caveats mentioned below.

  Disliked: The bedroom smelled moldy on arrival, the stovetop was broken. When we called about that, DreamAlgarve (the host company) came and installed a gas tank for the backup gas burner. They did not leave matches or a lighter, we had to go out and get that ourselves still. Even worse, they expect their guests to take out the trash, but do not provide any place to do so. This place seems to not have any legal waste disposal. If you do not dispose of the trash upon checkout, they charge you a heafty fee. Overall, DreamAlgarve is a property management company that claims to cater towards foreign investors first and foremost and you can feel that in the service. They seem to cut every corner they can.

  Liked: This is managed by a large accommodation company in Lagos..

  Disliked: Damp and cold apartment with mould on the walls. Not suitable at all for winter use. I'm sure it's fine for the summer months
