Guest Reviews
- Camilo (7/5): Está bien - Buena ubicación
El personal es muy amable
Los baños están aseados y son cómodos El colchón y la almohadas son malísimos
Huele un poco mal las habitaciones pero siento que es porque nunca circula el aire
- Tser-Jun (9/5): -
- Carlo (1/5): Mai più. Esperienza tremenda - Esclusivamente la posizione. capisco che sia un ostello ma se pago di più per una camera privata, vorrei privacy. Non abbiamo dormito per 2 notti (su 2) perché per tutta la notte, TUTTA LA NOTTE, avevamo fuori la porta ragazzi che urlavano, facevano casino e sentivamo ogni minimo respiro. Era come dormire in una piazza. Ah, ultimo dettaglio: la nostra camera era fronte bagni comuni degli uomini.. vi lascio immaginare tutto quello che abbiamo potuto sentire da quando aprivamo gli occhi a quando andavamo a dormire (si fa per dire dormire). Consigliato? Sì se volete il brivido di provare una esperienza di merda.

Buena ubicación

- Antonio (9/5): - Habitaciones limpias y bonitas El espacio del servicio (WC) era un poco estrecho. Por lo demás genial
- dafna (10/5): -
- Leah (10/5): - The kitchen was very nice, a good lounge and reasonably good showers. Close to everything in town and if you want to drink and socialise they have that too. The showers up stairs were always cold, so just use the downstairs ones. It wasn't really a big deal because there were options.
- Turton (7/5): -
- Sofie (10/5): -
- Timothy (10/5): -
- Elise (6/5): 5 - The hostel is located in a beautiful house, walking distance from all restaurants and activities in Faro. The hostel is really for party crowds. My private room was located in front of the shared men’s bathrooms - all night long people were arriving, stomping through the halls and making noise. At 3 am someone was puking, a sound that may as well have come from my room.
When bringing it up to the reception the next morning, she pointed out I should have dealt with it at night.

- Jane (9/5): Great location and reasonable price - Great base- staff very helpful Bedrooms close to outdoor area so noisy at night
- Denis (10/5): Amazing rooms and supper nice staff - Great rooms, a very high level of maintenance, and super friendly people.
- Kathrin (9/5): Super Unterkunft :) - Tolle Lage, super freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, kleines Schließfach für Wertgegenstände, super Empfehlung für portugiesisches Restaurant - der Arroz de Marisco war super lecker, der Pub Crawl war toll, um neue Leute kennenzulernen und auch ein paar Bars zusammen zu erkunden, der Schlafsaal nur für Frauen war für mich sehr sinnvoll - ich konnte im Vergleich zu bisherigen Aufenthalten in anderen Hostels mit gemischten Zimmern sehr viel besser schlafen Tür zum Bad im Schlafsaal nicht schließbar
- Chun Wa (8/5): - 位置不錯 木地板行走易發出聲音,雖小心翼翼
- JEANTHON (7/5): - Très bien situé
- Heiko (10/5): - Ein super nett geführtes Hostel mit vielen jungen Leuten. Sehr zentral. Zum Wohlfühlen. Nix

- Rachael (9/5): - Loved the option of a smaller dorm, the roof terrace and the free tea and coffee available all day!
- Melissa (4/5): Don’t stay if you are solo traveler - Nice central location and very clean This is the least social hostel I visited.
Nobody talks to each other, especially the elderly guests just stare at you when you greet them. This leads to a weird vibe in the hostel. It feels more like cheap hotel than a social hostel.
- Melissa (4/5): -
- Porras Sánchez (8/5): - Me gustó la ubicación, muy cercano al centro. El local es antiguo y muy bonito. El personal fue agradable y la cama cómoda. Estuve en una habitación de 6 personas y una noche 2 personas formaron un escándalo importante. El hostal no tiene culpa. Pero esto no debería pasar.
- Rodrigo (5/5): - Comodoties Problems with reservations
- Nataliya (10/5): -
- iFasoolii (10/5): - The vibes were completely unmatched like anywhere i have been. Made some new friendships and life long memories. I am feeling emotional even typing this review. All good things must come to an end. Until next time ♥️
- Eileen (10/5): Will definitely visit again very clean very reasonable price definitely high standards and the beds were comfortable too - Absolutely everything so sweet clean kind and lovely meeting so many nice people That I couldn’t stay longer because I had to go home but other priorities
- Euclides (9/5): -
- Ulrike (8/5): -
- Nina (3/5): - Nachts war es extrem die Laut. Wir hatten ein zwei Bett Zimmer. Das Haus ist sehr hellhörig, sodass jedes Geräusch gut hörbar war.
- Eliane (9/5): - A atenção da funcionária da recepção Foi minha primeira experiência em dividir quarto com muitas pessoas e não foi muito agradável, pois não respeitam muito os horários e nem o silêncio. Mas de resto foi muito agradável
- Emma (10/5): -
- Azel (5/5): -
- Jeison (10/5): - The hostel is located near the bus and train station. My room was spacious and comfortable. The common are also comfortable, and the rooftop is very cozy.
The wifi was great and had no issues at all. N/A
- Ahmad Saleem (9/5): Cute, clean and comfortable - Very good value for money as the hostel is quite well thought out and they keep it clean. Didn’t face any problems. Nothing really :)
- David (10/5): - Everything, I'm going back. Confusion about 2 euro per night city tax and 3 euro towel hire. Not stated before booking.
- Hasan (10/5): Like a dream - Very good rooms, toilet and douches, very fully equipped kitchen, good and eelcoming personnels, always clean and tidy, u can find all u need (mosquito repeller, sun protection cream, sun umbrrlla, after check out lockers) all the personel is so friendly highly reccomend. They make organizations just join them
- Paloma (9/5): Volvería - La ubicación, la terraza, muy bonito, sábanas limpias, posibilidad de café y té gratuitos, recepcion 24h
- Elena (5/5): - Personale giovane, struttura con possibilità di partecipare ad attività.
Reception h24. Insonorizzazione nulla, nelle stanze private impossibile riposare perché le feste fino a notte inoltrata si sentono fino in camera nonostante i tappi per orecchie
- Neringa (10/5): - Jaukius Hostelis.Nera labai triukšmingas.Paciam centre. Lovos patogios.Tvarkinga virtuve.. Personalas draugiškas.. Didelė terasa.
- Amine (8/5): - Lieu stratégique, option de garder les bagages pour les récupérer après, staff serviables et aimables, propreté,
- Sanchez Benitez (10/5): -
- Cian (8/5): -
- Benoît (8/5): C’était mon deuxième séjour à Tilia. Et si je reviens à Faro j’y logerai à nouveau ! - L’ambiance hostel avec de grandes parties communes où les gens se retrouvent pour papoter, boire un café ou juste regarder son téléphone.
- Helena (10/5): Senti-me em casa. Tive o que precisava para passear por Faro. - Fiquei num quarto 4 camas feminino com banheiro no quarto!
Quarto grande. Cozinha ótima e tudo a funcionar na perfeição,fiz meu almoço e jantar. Espaço social perfeito muitos lugares para convívio ou tele trabalho. Resumindo: nota 10
- Paloma (8/5): - La pieza estaba muy limpia, el baño también. Tenía unos asientos para poder acomodarse. La almohada era cómoda. Me gustó el sistema de entrada con tarjeta a la pieza y lockers dentro. El baño estaba bien, el agua salía caliente.
El sistema de privacidad de camas con cortinas eran blackout, lo que permitía no despertar si otra persona prendía la luz. Además cada cama tenía luz propia. La pieza tenía un aire acondicionado que hacía mucho ruido todo el día y en la noche molestaba para dormir.
Cómo sugerencia, los lockers podrían ser un poco más grandes.
- Thompson (10/5): - The vibe here is wonderful. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Perfect base to explore from.
- rice (10/5): -
- Mariia (7/5): - Close to the bus station and FlixBus station. I stayed only for one night for 5 hours and can’t say a lot about anything else.
- malin (5/5): - Schönes, altes Gebäude. Gute Lage. Freundliches Personal. Coole Dachterrasse. Im Hostel ist es sehr laut. Die Wände und Türen sind ringhörig und man hört die ganze Nacht jeden Schritt, der im Hostel gemacht wird, jedes Gespräch und jeden Toilettenbesuch. Wir sind immer wieder aufgewacht, weil wir das Gefühl hatten, jemand spricht bei uns im Zimmer, dabei waren es Leute auf dem Flur.

- Aneurin (10/5): Great location, friendly staff and social vibe. - Perfect location, very friendly staff, great kitchen facilities (some of the best of any hostel I’ve stayed in in Europe) and plenty of social spaces. I found it to be a chilled vibe and the other guests were all very respectful. The large 12 bed room I stayed in was a metre from the front doors, which stayed open well into the night. I didn’t feel unsafe, but the door to my room didn’t lock very effectively so for parts of the night I was sleeping two metres from the street with no locked doors between me and the street - felt a bit sketchy but it was all okay.
- Daniel (1/5): - Imposible dormir, no es para viajeros, parece un party hostel Hubo ruido de gente hablando y gritando toda la noche por todo el hostel. Ademas la habitación estaba junto al salón y éste no tenía puerta, así que se oía todo. Para viajes o turismo, no es un buen sitio

- Kerem (7/5): Great value for money - I liked that I could socialise with others given the room layout. Toilet cubicles are a bit small, the curtains were a bit weirdly designed.
- Justine (10/5): -
- Lucie (10/5): Great hostel, 10/10 - It was clean, comfortable, spacious.
The hostel vibe is great and there are multiple areas to chill / call / work on computer.
Appreciated a lot the free lockers after the checkout All good honestly
- Mariusz (10/5): -
- José (10/5): - Nice location and amenities. The common areas have plenty of room and I was able to work from there until the end of the day after my checkout while waiting for my bus. The piano in the common areas can get a bit noisy because some guests seem to love playing it.

- Sydney (8/5): -
- Daniely Maria (4/5): Estadia péssima: cobranças abusivas, falta de transparência e uma recepção totalmente desrespeitosa. - É próximo da Marina. Da Autoridade Policial. Cheguei meia-noite do dia 25 e, mesmo assim, me cobraram como se a diária só começasse às 15h — um absurdo. Paguei todos os dias corretamente e ainda quiseram cobrar mais 32 euros sem justificativa. Eu paguei. Cheguei cansada do Brasil. Não tomei banho para não acordar mais 9 pessoas no quarto. Um horror. Imagina.
Além disso, cobraram por toalha (6€) e até por escova de dente (1€), o que é completamente mesquinho. No final devolveram 8€, mas isso não compensa a cobrança indevida e a falta de transparência.
Experiência negativa e cobrança totalmente injusta.
- Adan (9/5): Excelente -
- Rybak (4/5): Nie polecam jak ktoś chce odpocząć i się wyspać po całym dniu zwiedzania miasta. Miałam pokój dwuosobowy, jednak gości z - Lokalizacja i to by było na tyle. Fatalną akustyka, pokój koło łazienki osób z pokoju wieloosobowego- więc przez całą noc odkąd zameldowałam się w hostelu woda, głośne dźwięki.
Następnie ktoś z gości włączył muzykę w środku nocy, która uniemożliwiła mi sen. Przez całą noc ktoś chodził bardzo głośno, rozmowy również słychać.
