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 :)

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.

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.

Perfect location for people who want a great night out. Its basically one minute walk to the nearest bar. The room is clean and have a good size. Double room has toilet and shower. Theres a shared kitchen but also coffee maker in the room. Most importantly the owner Silvia is a very friendly and approachable woman.
