Mitigé

Maison d'hôtes très bien placé avec un accueil souriant La nuit trop bruyante à cause de sa proximité avec les bars avec musique ou les clients parlent fort et parfois crient jusqu'au petit matin..

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.

I liked the original features off the structure off the property. The guest house had too much personal items within the property...eg old hats on the wall...loads off kichens essentials...like plates ...bowls ....cups and plates.old musky wardrobes and furnitures.....kinda like museum furniture Felt like someone lent us their twin room for the night

4/10 Fair

Esta muy centrico pero por la misma razon hay mucho ruido por un par de bares noctucnos. Por otro lado no tiene aire acondicionado y hace mucho calor por las noches. En el alojamiento se ofrece cocina pero no tiene donde cocinar. Solo hay microondas y sanwichera- tostadora.
Nadia, 5-night trip

Single room was very small and dark . Needed fan on constantly to keep temperature bearable. Fridge did not work properly - didn't keep things cold. Very limited kitchen. No cooking allowed. However very good price for central location

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.

Nice owner, central location, a few issues

The woman who runs this is really nice and speaks excellent English. But, she is not there most of the time i.e. this is not a place with staff on site 24 hours. Also, be aware that cabs cannot drop you directly here - the alley is too narrow. They can get within a couple hundred feet though. Less than 10 minute walk to bus station, with a bus going to airport (right next to train station). Some of the other travelers who were there were a bit odd and left the kitchen messy. It's kind of an echo-y place since everything is tile. Very centrally located though - everything is walkable. Definitely some street drinking going on weekend nights in the alley it is on. The shower is tiny - and I am like 5'8" and saying that. It is also a VERY slippery shower floor - needs some simple pieces of grip tape. I would consider staying here again but would also look at other options.
