We loved staying in the Pirate Backpackers. The Hostel is great, it was really clean and spacious. The kitchen equipment is super and they also have a lot of other useful stuff like sun-umbrellas you can take with you for the beach. The Staff was incredibly friendly! We just loves everything about the hostel as well as about Faro itself, we'll definitely go back there and we recommend it to everyone!

What a great welcome in Faro! The staff is super friendly and helpful with any questions. Also gave us a generous compensations as the showers weren't working for one night due to a waterpipe damage. The backyard and rooftop view are amazing. Would stay here anytime again!

Nice place. Good common area. The host, Diego, was accommodating. 8 room dorm was quiet enough. Location is a 10 minute walk from the train and bus stations

It is a very special place! Nuno the owner is an open heart and is welcoming everyone with a smile. The atmosphere in the hostel is very cosy and familiar and makes you feel like home. We've been here on a monday and that was a good idea because every monday there is a party in an old warehouse by the seaside. Definitely worth a stay. And the beer next door was 60 cents :D

Best hostel I have been in Portugal so far! Nuno and Diogo are very welcoming and helpful when it comes to giving tips what to do/where to go. Keep it going! Hopefully see you again next year

If you are looking for a clean hostel, roof terrace, positive energy and nice people, then the Backpackers Asylum has to be your choice. My favourite in Faro! Besides: Nuno is an awesome host

This hostel is so great and cosy. Especially Robin was such an amazing hostess <3

Lovely and helpful staff, and facilities. The hostel is in a great spot, central and easy to get to and from the bus station, into the shopping area and old town. The rooms are quite spacious, and give you your own locker to keep your things which makes you feel very safe. The hostel isn't a party hostel so people don't come home making a big ruckus, however your welcome to go out and enjoy yourself. The rules enforce or remind people to be respectful of others! The kitchen is great can make up your own meal very easily! 110% would go back an awesome experience.

Great hostel and friendly host Nuno, lovely balkony and comfortable bed. Thanks for the two nights experience 👌🏼💯

Best Hostel EVER! The owner is the friendliest most welcoming host that sits down and keeps you company while he offers you 1 Euro beers. We left for Largos to a few days and he was more then happy for us to chill out the back and drink his beers while we waited for our flight later in the day. Would recommend indefinitely.

WHAT A PLACE ... Staff superfriendly and great location, really cool relaxed vibe ... defo coming back ... thanks for evwrything ...

Extremely helpful "pirates" 😁 Chilled atmosphere, light breakfast. Very cosy backpacker-styled place; makes a backpacker feel at home when on the road. Really hot room, couldn't be countered by fan at all. But part of the experience.
