Avoid
Very uncomfortable beds. Noisy to sleep on the ground floor.
No running hot water
Mould smell in room, marks on walls. Disgusting.
The only great thing was the location 2 minute walk to the beach and old town.

Location perfect, everything else very basic
The location of Cheerfulway is a pleasant 5 min walk to centre of old town Albufeira, perfect!!
The apartments themselves were not pleasant. Our air con didn't work and after raising the issue with management they simply did nothing to fix it. The pool area is mostly covered in shade so people/groups cramped into the small bit in the sun. One group in the pool played music so loud everyone left, as management did nothing! The pool was often dirty and there are no bar facilities. Most of the clientele was early twenties groups.
Management were pleasant at reception but this isn't enough to make me want to go back.

Not the best
Metal jail bed which flipped if you sat on the end, very little sleep could be had. Pool very dirty. Very run down place. Ok kitchen and bathroom facilities. Staff spoke little English. Ground floor room felt a little unsafe. Sunloungers 10+ years old covered in bird poo and dirt. Been to many "party" destinions where the hotels have been better. Wouldn't return.

ok hotel close to beach. Can use a little updating
If you are looking for a bed to sleep in and a place close to the beach then this hotel is right for you. If you have kids and expect a quiet nights sleep then keep looking.
The facilities were great. Wonderful location. The road traffic and the late night neighbours were not the best. Bring your own pillows as well, theirs needed lots of impovement. The hotel description said sleeps 6. Still trying to figure that one out. Two bedrooms and a futon pullout does not sleep 6.
I know you are not there to watch tv but the 80's 13" tube tv could be upgraded.
Overall review 7 out of 10. Location was great. Amenities need some updating. The drainage problems in the washroom sink didn't help either. If you're happy with only a microwave and a stovetop than its fine. Just expected a little more including a/c which it did not have.

Péssimo.
Paguei 90,00 Euros ao chegar no hotel no dia 24/09. Foram duas diárias. Falaram que não iriam lançar no cartão de crédito. Para minha surpresa quando cheguei no Brasil as diárias vforam lançadas no meu cartão Visa. Como vão me ressarcir? Não deram recibo porque não havia ninguém na recepção no dia 25 que deixei o local. É uma falcatrua. Paguei outros hotéis com o Hotéis.Com e não houve problema algum . Como fazer para me ressarcir.

Lo bueno la ubicacion 5 minutos del centro y con aparcamientos cerca, las habitaciones muy espaciosa y con todo lo nesesario para hacer de comer. Lo malo esta muy descuidado una de las camas rota y doblada la cisterna rota y sin tapa, las persianas de seguridad no cerraban el seguro, aunque no se use mucho la tele en un viaje decir que era de 15 pulgadas para verla desde una distancia de unos 5 metros que esta el sofa y de las antiguas

Broken balcony door during whole week
The balcony door was broke the whole week, so we could not enter our balcony during the whole week.
Staff said "they fix it tomorrow" the first three days! Then we gave up!
