Basic accommodation. Needs a mirror in the room, a little more heating in the rooms during the winter months, terrace wasn't as beautiful as what it shows in the photo. Beds were so comfy and cosy!

Find something better
Pro: Host was helpful and friendly. Con: Room wasn’t clean, sand all over on floor. Walls are thin, could hear clearly what people say outside the room. The squeaky sound made by other people stepping on the wooden floor is horrible especially when it’s past midnight.

hallway light
This stay was extremely comfortably and cozy as is in the name! Beds were great and host was very responsive and easy to communicate with. Bathrooms and kitchen were very nice and accommodation was in a perfect location from airport and town! The only issue we had was the hallway light. We were in the first room and once we had shut off our light to go to bed we could still see the hallway light over the top of the door. Because the rooms are quite small this is actually a big issue. Any time someone came home and turned on the light we were woken up no matter how many times we got up to turn it off because people came home at different times.

Cosy’ish
The place was as advertised and my only issues was the late late check-in time of 4pm (seems like some airport town guest houses feel they can do that ?) Also, the modern remote control fan is a nice touch but the smallish room was very hot and really needs updating to AC. Ok for a night or two, but no cigar ✌️

Lovely modern guesthouse with relaxing common area
Really nice guesthouse, obviously renovated recently with lovely modern design. The top terrace is a great place for a drink. When you arrive you need a code to get in and the owner forgot to give us this but did answer the phone straight away and sorted it so no harm done. Contacted owner for airport transfer and this worked perfectly.

Very handy
This is a great property that is convenient for Faro airport. Although it has a shared bathroom, it is a very well equipped and cheap option to stop the night if you have an early flight to catch.

Great value in a central location
This place has everything you need and at a great price. It was fairly empty when I was there do the shared bath no problem. The ratio of public areas to private where quite high, with 2 outdoor seating areas and a sizable kitchen for only 4 rooms. Communication was great and people were friendly. Could hear the storks on top of the church 30m away

A great find.
This is a great place to stay. In the middle of Faro and in the historic area. My only mistake was not booking more nights as they were full. Cooking facilities. Shared bathroom but that's no problem. All extremely clean.

Nice place to stay in the centre of Faro.
The room was very clean and comfortable. There was a communal kitchen area and some Port for guests to help themselves to. Good cooking facilities and options for a light breakfast provided (bread, fruit etc). Nice location in the centre of Faro. Pleasant roof terrace.

Good Location & Value for Money
Very good location, only minutes from Rail & Bus Stations; small streets to get there. Within easy walking distance to city centre/old town, market etc. No reception, owner sends code for outside door & room number prior to arrival. A very welcoming touch was a help yourself bottle of port wine &/or biscuits in the kitchen area, where there is oven, microwave, toaster, boiling jug etc. Very clean, two bathrooms & 4 guest rooms, very comfortable with heater in each room, towels provided.

The accommodation is in an amazing location, about 10 minutes away from the centre. We stayed in the room closest to the front door so could here people leaving in and out. The room itself was cosy with a massive bed. There was a bathroom and kitchen at the other end of the corridor and these were kept clean. The only negative was the squeaky doors and hollow walls as you could here people go in and out of places and hear them talk. However, I would recommend this place to those looking for somewhere cheap and close to the centre as the bed itself was comfy.

La chambre1 au rez de chaussée faisait 7 m2. 2 lits jumeaux, 1 petite table de nuit avec une lampe reliée à une rallonge trois prise et un portant métallique pour placard. Pas de place pour les bagages, un matelas en mousse trés souple, la porte de la chambre surmontée de vitres laissant passer la lumière du couloir. Nous n'avons pas dormi et avons quitté l'établissement au petit matin pour aller au Stay Hôtel à Faro. Le digicode de la porte principale en panne. Immeuble trés ancien... Je n'y retournerai jamais. 44 euros, sans petit déjeuner, c'est cher par rapport au Sensation Guest House de Lagos, magnifique endroit à seulement 36 euros, petit déjeuner salé sucré compris.

방 넓고 화장실 공용이지만 정말 깨끗하고 사용자가 많지 않아서인지 혼자 쓰는 것처럼 편했어요. 엘베 없지만 한층만 올라가면 되서 괜찮았습니다. 다시 가도 여기 묵을 것 같아요. 버스터미널, 기차역도 가까워서 세비아로 넘어가기 편했습니다.

Excelente!
O hostel é charmoso, extremamente limpo e organizado, possui toalhas, cozinha super bem equipada e camas muito confortáveis. Dividi com uma amiga um quarto duplo e foi excelente! Há um terraço super interessante no andar superior e uma área para secar roupas no piso inferior. A localização é legal pois está próximo ao centro mas numa área tranquila e sossegada. Não tem uma recepção, então à porta da fachada há o telefone de contato do Francisco que foi super atencioso e prestativo. Há um bom banheiro embaixo. Sugiro, inclusive a colocação de suportes para toalhas e materiais de higiene. Adoramos nossa estadia e indicaríamos facilmente!!

Rekommenderas absolut!
Enkelt men väldigt fräscht guesthouse med fyra rum och två badrum. Vårt rum (4) var rätt litet men hade en underbart skön och rymlig dubbelsäng och badrummet mittemot var jättefint. Sängstorleken matchar skandinavisk standard. I det lilla köket finns TV'n och värden bjuder på kryddor, socker och småkakor. Även kaffe och té finns. Det är ett gammalt townhouse, så det är svalt inomhus. Vi hade lite otur med vädret under vår vecka, och fick nytta av värmeelementet. Bra WIFI. En enda nackdelen var att låset till rummet är rätt enkelt, så vi vågade inte lämna något av värde på rummet, men det gör man sällan någonstans. Vi rekommenderar detta ställe varmt pga sin prisvärdhet, renlighet och närhet till allt.
