The staff was very nice and provided breakfast on request. There is also a small supermarket right next to the accommodation so you could prepare your own breakfast. The kitchen was fully equipped. There were several restaurants in the area, including for breakfast. The connection to Tavira Island was easily accessible either by car or by ferry.
The accommodation was right in the town of Tavira. As a result, it was a little noisier. It was difficult to find a parking space every evening, despite the large public parking lots, which were almost always full. At night the garbage was collected, which meant you definitely couldn't sleep. Unfortunately, the location is not suitable for a good night's sleep. The room was very small, so you couldn't even put your suitcase on the floor and keep walking around the room.

Bedroom layout and large bathroom, quiet area yet very close to best beaches and good restaurants.
Only fan in the room it can get quite warm. No cooking ware available, only microwave.

Oh my goodness, loved loved loved it and Tavira! Absolutely fabulous value with an absolutely fabulous room with a beautiful view of a town square. A full working kitchen with everything equipped to make a fabulous meal. I truly loved having the Nespresso machine a few steps from my lovely room. A fabulous value, wonderful staff and an absolutely fabulous terrace which is shared with other guests. I was only scheduled to stay 3 nights, but I added and extra 3 to my itinerary. Tavira and Downtown Alegria B&B are true GEMS!!! I will definitely be back.
That I had to leave!!! I could stay a month or more if my schedule would permit it!!!

Good location. Restaurants around. A coffee shop down the street for the morning. Kitchen is well equiped and a shared space between several rooms. There is a sitting area but no TV.
The parking is on the street and for a cost. Free parking is farther away. There is no lift and rooms are up several flights of stairs.

Everything! The location is great! Very close to everything and the room is beautiful and airy and super super clean! I like how it's a room in an actual apartment and you have the proper home-like kitchen and living room feel! You do share with another room I think but because it's in an actual apartment, it feels very natural. The kitchen has everything you need and the fridge comes with ice and cold water! The staff is super nice and even with language barriers, they still try to communicate and be helpful! This is super nice! The whole place abd the area feels very safe! Highly recommend!

When I booked this room, I was expecting there to be other suites on the same floor who shared the outdoor patio. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was only one suite, practically a penthouse! Although other guests could potentially utilize the space, I didn't see anyone using the patio during my entire stay. It felt very private and relaxing!
No Complaints. The view of the castle was not quite what I expected but the nearly private patio suite far outweighed anything close to a complaint. Great stay!

Excellent location, once knocked on the main outside door, the lady who greeted us was lovely, once inside after we were taken to the apartment, we were handed the keys no more knocking for us, I would recommend this to everyone, , my husband especially liked the ice maker 👍😃
My husband would have liked a TV as he does like to keep up with the news,

A nice stopover on our cycle tour. The room was comfy - we were able to use the kitchen and sitting area to make/eat breakfast in the morning. Note that the stovetop (burners) are NOT available for use. It was quiet and close to everything.
Nothing - it was as expected.

Great location 2 streets back from the river with a nice view of a quiet square. Lovely continental breakfast. A special mention to the Indian young man Gircharnjit who was learning how to do everything. He was very polite & working hard & did his best to make sure we were OK with everything, including offering ideas of where to visit.
We didn't dislike anything

From walking through the door we settled in straight away . The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable. The Kitchen and lounge area are quite spacious and also comfortable. The location is perfect for the train station ,resteraunts and sight seeing.
The WiFi was poor in the bedroom but I feel as though this is not worth mentioning due to the overall experience .
