Just stayed here for 4 nights. Basic room but central location, about 5 minutes walk from Faro town centre and 10 minutes from the old town and bus station. The staff were extremely helpful with suggestions for things to do in Faro and surrounding area and we were allowed in our room several hours before the check-in time too. They... More

I'm always a bit wary booking hotels on line that I know nothing about, but we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived here. For the price of a camping spot, or a shared room at a hostel, you get a hotel room with all the comforts, and breakfast thrown in as well. If that's not a bargain, I don't know... More

The journey from the airport went through an area which was all boarded up and covered in graffiti near the hotel. I was despondent thinking I had booked a bad hotel. The hotel is basic but clean and the staff are very helpful. The tiled floors meant when the staff started at 7 we were woken by scraping furniture. The... More

The room was great for what we paid, it could have been cleaner but for £36 a night you cant go wrong, the staff were great and all spoke excellent English. The hotel was only 5 min walk from town in the 'locals' area, can be noisy at night but I experienced that all over the Algarve (especially when Benfica... More

This hotel has the most fantastic staff. My stay there was not for pleasure and the owners, family and reception staff could not have done more to accomodation and assist me. They even provide a counselling service for fragile minds!!!!! But seriously this hotel goes above and beyond in order to help including translation and faxing services. The rooms are... More

From the location to the atmosphere, I can't say enough about this hotel. The staff is so accommodating and friendly. The rooms are very nice and clean!!!! I would absolutely stay here again!!!!!I like that everything is updated and within a short walking distance to downtown Faro! The driving distance to other areas is short also!!!!!

The hotel is a good value, clean 3 star hotel in my opinion. The hotel is set in a mostly residential area and there is some noise from dogs barking in the morning which woke us. Rooms are clean, bathrooms are modern with excellent showers. The breakfast is pretty poor, mostly cereals, poor quality cold meats and cheeses. The train... More

Nice hotel, friendly and helpful staff, close to the center an to the bars with fado music. Nice rich breakfast, good dinner in a restaurant nearby, a bottle of portuguese wine included. It is a perfect place for a short stay in the beautifull city of Faro.
