Quinta Pedra Dos Bicos Hotel Albufeira

hi all,my wife and i stayed in a two bed apartment at quinta pedra dos bicos from 03/05/11 to 10/05/11,we previously stayed there in nov/10 for 10 days,two very enjoyable holidays.the hotel is ideally situated between oura beach 3/4 mins walk and the strip = pubs restaurants ect 6/7 mins walk. There is a local supermarket just around the corner very cheap 5 litres of water=65 cent,1 ltr of wine 69 cent 6 pack of 330ml beer 1.75 for those of you with a thirst,next door to the supermarket is a ticketshop where you can get tour trips all over the Algarve ect,we went on a historical day trip, away from 8 in the morn till 7 in the eve,all for 12 euro each. There is also a giro bus stop nearby where you can avail of the excellent Albufeira bus network. The apartment itself was very good,large bedroom with aircon, tv with sat no extra charge,modern bathroom,well stocked kitchen/sitting room with balcony,all utensils microwave ect included.the pool was just behind the apartment,good size, plenty of sunbeds. The hotel staff were very helpfull,when asked they printed off my homeward boarding passes,no problem. All an all this hotel is in a great location,with clean spacey apartments. Rant over

slight problem when we arrived as they had no record of my booking,an we had to wait an hour at reception while all my friends were allocated their rooms,we were there for a wedding. Eventually they found an apartment and kindly upgraded us to a two bedroomed apartment. Apartment was first class loads of room,spotlessy clean,and ideally located. The staff were all very good.Really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely complex. Apartment was studio and very small but did the job. Staff weren't as friendly as they could have been. Place was very clean. Good location, two mins from the strip of activity. Beach three min walk.
