It is in the middle of Faro centre. Really well located in the centre. Property was clean. Nothing too fancy, but price/quality wise, you cannot go wrong.

Logement très bien placé pour visiter le centre de Faro, plutôt bien isolé. Les salles d'eau manquent de fenêtre mais la configuration du logement ne le permet pas (il y fait vite très chaud). L'espace commun (cuisine, patio) est accueillant. Le personnel a été très serviable. Avec un peu de chance vous pouvez trouver un stationnement gratuit à proximité.

Das Zimmer war ausreichend für zwei Personen. Es gab einen Laufgang um das Bett. Die Dachterrasse übersichtlich und erwartungsgemäß sehr warm. Klimaanlage funktionierte und war leise. Toiletten und Dusche waren auf dem Flur. Deutlich schon älter. Aber es funktioniert.
