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.

Perfect location

I always seem to easily impressed but yet again I am. Last week I was in £200 per night London hotel....this guest house trumps it in every way. Check in was easy via email, location can't be better. Shared bathroom was spotlessly clean and should not put people off. Faro is fabulous for a short break, loved it.

Silvia was an absolutely fantastic host. The communication before and during the trip was outstanding! Our room was ample in size for us both and extremely clean, we did not have our own bathroom, but the shared ones were also extremely clean, with plenty of toilet rolls and soap. The property supplies you with towels towels provided were extremely soft like those in 5* hotels! The roof top terrace was a lovely addition. We sat and enjoyed many coffees up their. The stairs are narrow with them being spiral to climb but nothing too worrying my companion which a bad leg managed them quite fine. The kitchen facilities are fantastic, although i only used the kettle and two mugs. The other guests really do appreciate where they are staying, there were never any pots or mess in the kitchen. Now the location for us was amazing very central and close to nightlife. however, where our room was we couldn't hear any of the music, which was excellent the room had two sets of windows and shutters so it guarded the noise. When i say two lots of windows, there was a sliding door porch, large enough for one to sit, then shutters and windows. We only stayed for two nights but we most definitely will be back. Just to add this was a last minute booking were we had never stepped foot in portugal before it was fabulous definitely will be back to portugal and definitely use this accommodation again! Thank you for having us! Amazing 10/10

Great little guest house

Excellent value for money right in the middle of Faro. Self check-in was super easy and although it is a lively bar area it felt very safe and the windows kept the noise down brilliantly. The roof terrace is a lovey little spot for a morning coffee or a nightcap :)
