Although l'd notified plane arrived c. noon l didn't get access to room till nearly 4. Sylvie apologetic & v. nice. Great spacious, if bit dated, room & ensuite. Comfy bed but nightime socialising noises infiltrated sleep. Otherwise good location & sun terrace a nice plus.

À deux minutes de la marina

J'ai aimé ma petite chambre malgré le matelas très dur. Faut fermer la fenêtre et la porte coulissante pour échapper aux cris des personnes imbibées d'alcool. Belle terrasse sur le toit. Micro-ondes, bouilloire et machine à café dans la cuisinette. Je recommande le restaurant népalais à côté. Gare et terminus d'autocars à moins de 10min de marche.

Convenient location, good basic budget option.

Stayed here as a couple but this place would also be great for a solo backpacker. I’d describe it as being more like a private room in a hostel rather than a traditional guesthouse with host on site. The location is right by the centre of Faro, the shopping streets are only a couple of minutes walk away. The Guesthouse has a lovely roof terrace and upper room where you can sits and eat your food, and there is a kitchen with a microwave, kettle, toaster, etc where you can prepare something. I did find that it was a bit noisy outside on the street, as you are right by the bars, so you might want to bring some earplugs. The room was fine, shared bathrooms but it was right next to the room. For a budget trip this Guesthouse was a good choice if you aren’t looking for anything too fancy.
