  : We like that the hotel, is located so close to everything while not being too loud! The staff and restaurants down stairs are all good and the cleaning staff were excellent
  : It was noisy one night but that was not the hotels fault and is just because of the volume of people passing at nightThe fact that it was 2 single beds put together even though we are a couple was annoying

  : The location of Turial is great, right off the beach and main pedestrian path but a little difficult to find with a car amongst all the small one way lanes down to the beach. The old town Albufeira is very touristy with a lot of bars, restaurants, clubs and canabis shops with mostly young foreign guests. My main complaints were the interior lightening in the hallways and stairways to the elevator. The hotel consists of three sections and I was in section C, second floor with a great view of the ocean beach from the balcony. The halls and stairs are completely dark until motion detected very dim lights go on and those lights provide very little lightening. I had to use my cellphone light to find where the key went into the door. The studios are very small with two single beds together in a small area with only a low table and no chairs. Between the kitchenette and the bedroom was a bar with two stools on the bedroom side. There were no lights in the kitchenette and only the bedroom light gave some light to the bar area and almost none in the kitchenette. The bathroom was spacious with a tub and adjustable shower hand held sprayer. There are several outdoor restaurants below the hotel and with loud music that finally ends at 10pm. The balcony contains one round table and two chairs but access is with several old wood frame sliding doors that are loose and rub together when it is windy out making a noise all night. They need to be replaced with sound proof sliding doors. The studio was kept clean. There is a small one story indoor parking garage on the side of the hotel and costs Euro 15 per day and that is also dark until the dim motion lights come on.
  : Because of the negative remarks above, I would not stay at Turial again.

  : Fantastic location, close to beach, bars and restaurants. The staff were so friendly and helpful.
  : Just pity there isnt a small area for a few sunloungers. But not a major problem because your so close to the beach

  : II have stayed in the Turial many a time so I know the place well. The staff are very nice and they keep the place very clean.
  : The Bar on the corner could be very noisy but did not stay open too late.
