Lovely place the room was was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was Continental but everything you wanted with fresh bread rolls and pastel de natta. The bathrooms were great with shampoo, shower gel and hair dryer provided. All in all a wonderful experience at this guest house would highly recommend.

Staff were very welcoming from the time I arrived until the time that I left. Bedroom was very good with all the amenities that you'd require. Property was a short walk from the city centre, train station, bus station, harbour. We enjoyed our stay, thank you.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The room was lovely and very well decorated. The only small issue was that the street could be quite noisy, so we needed to keep the windows closed and use the air conditioning. Some staff members did not speak English, but they tried their best to help and were very friendly. Breakfast was good as well.

Super lovely guesthouse. You feel like one of the locals staying here. Check-in is easy and ‘self-serve’ so no real time restrictions and the kitchen is a huge bonus, with super lovely simple breakfast of rolls, cereal, fruit and pastries. Just a shame we couldn’t stay longer!

A good location, close to the bus and train stations. Friendly staff, good use of the kitchen if you wish. Air-conditioning was fine once we had found that it was unplugged and had to be plugged in!

It was a good stay overall, a little bit off the main area but still close enough. The staff was very friendly and the breakfasts were nice. The bathrooms can be a bit busy in the morning but to be expected! I would definitely stay again!

Short pleasant stay

Very short overnight stay as landing late at Faro airport. Self check in to a very comfortable room with a great shower. Staff were extremely friendly and a lovely portuguese breakfast was provided. It has a hostel type feel which we really liked and would be a great place to launch your algarve adventures from.

Lovely guesthouse close to the old town

We had a great one-night stay here. It’s very central for access to Faro old town (10 mins walk). The room was airy and clean and we were pleased to be able to check-in much earlier than expected. Breakfast was included and was very tasty with lots of continental options.

10/10 Exceptional

The hostel was clean and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. The kitchen/dining room was well appointed and we used it to cook some food. Breakfast was served from 9 until 11am. There was also a small lounge with a tv, a small balcony, and a central courtyard seating area. Free parking on the street is easy to find and it's not so far to walk to the town centre.

Quaint welcoming property providing a great Portugal vibe. The owner posted great instructions for check in and awesome directions. The only downside was the obviously distressed dog who barked at night.

My stay was short and sweet. Arrived late at night, and left in the morning for a week long road trip BUT this place was a short ride from the airport, clear instructions for gaining access, everything clean and well maintained, nice breakfast array in the morning. Was a quick walk to marina. Would definitely choose again for a longer stay.

Amazing place in Faro

It’s a beautiful property. We had an amazon time staying. It’s so clean and peaceful. We loved that everything was of white colour in the room. It’s tiny but that’s what we paid for. Amazing budget option in Faro. And the owner/manager who met us, is an amazing person. I would definitely book this property again
