I had a mixed experience during my stay. The check-in process was a bit frustrating, especially with the unexpected deposit policy. However, I found the apartment to be clean and spacious with great amenities. The location was convenient for both the beach and nightlife, though there were some issues with noise during my stay.

The apartment was clean, spacious, and well-equipped. It featured a dining and living room area, kitchen, and balconies front and back. However, I faced issues with air conditioning leaking and no cleaning or fresh towels throughout my stay (which was disappointing).

The staff were generally friendly and helpful. Still, the cleanliness frequency disappointed me, as my apartment wasn't cleaned at all during my stay, and I had some problems with my deposit being questioned upon checkout.

The location was a highlight, only a 10-minute walk from the beach and close to restaurants. It's a safe area, but the noise from nearby parties was an issue during the latter part of my stay.

There were great nearby dining options, and I enjoyed breakfast at a lovely little spot I found. However, the apartment's kitchen lacked some basic items, which made self-catering a bit cumbersome.

The pool area was nice, although it got crowded at times, and the bar was cash only. I felt more sunbeds were needed, and I was disappointed that my request for non-alcoholic beer wasn't fulfilled.

I had a lovely start to my holiday with friendly staff and a clean room. However, the end of my stay was somewhat disappointing due to issues with the deposit refund process, which felt a bit dubious. The location was great, convenient for travel and close to the beach, but I'd hoped for better communication regarding the cleaning service and responses to concerns.

I had a mixed experience at Smy Santa Eulalia Algarve. On the plus side, the location was fantastic, close to many restaurants and the beach, and the central area allowed for a lively atmosphere. However, I did face some cleanliness issues and the pool area was smaller than I expected, which made it less enjoyable at times. Overall, it was affordable and served as a decent base for exploring Albufeira. 🌅🏖️

I had a pretty decent stay at Smy Santa Eulalia Algarve. The apartment was clean and spacious, which was a major plus, but I was a bit bummed out by the overall upkeep since it didn't quite match what I expected from the price. The location was awesome with plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, plus it was a quick walk to the strip where all the action is. However, the pool area was kind of small, and it got crowded at times, which made relaxing a bit tricky.

The pool area was nice but a bit small for the number of guests, making it hard to grab a sunbed. Plus, the pool closing at 8 felt a bit too early for my liking.
