arrived xmas eve morning .the reception couldnt realy be bothered and this didnt change throughout our stay,didnt speak to us at all and i dont think they know what a smile is. the whole hotel was freezing as they had turned all the heating off as the hotel didnt have many people staying.our room hadnt been aired and smelt damp,they gave us a small heater to use,it took 2 full days to warm our room up,we couldnt sleep the first night because we were so cold even though we had an extra blanket and slept with our coats on.
we werent told on arrival that you have to ask for a cooked breakfast so we just had toast for 2 days.when they did decide to put food in the hotplates ,it was not edible so we paid for breakfast elsewhere. we were told that the shuttle bus would go to the beach at 11am. we arrived in reception at 10 54 to see it pulling away. when we asked at reception she said he would return in 10mins,we waited over 30 mins the receptionist had disappeared so we decided to walk,their supposed to provide a return shuttle in the afternoon this didnt arrive at all so we had to walk back and as i use a walking stick i found this very inconvenient hence i will never return to this hotel again,i am already looking for alternative accomodation for next year as i go to albufeira regularly.
