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.

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.

Disliked: Staff & service
The accommodation was good value and not too far from the centre of Faro. Breakfast was a nice touch and even as vegans there was bread, jams, fruit, juice and coffee available.. We had not expected a shared bathroom as the listing on Expedia only specified this in Portuguese and lists “rainfall showerhead” as an amenity for the room in English - this is misleading and should be changed. We had multiple messages from the hotel asking us to reach out if we needed to before and during our stay..This initially seemed really friendly, but I received no reply after sending three communications via email and Expedia asking whether we could leave luggage for a few hours when checking out. We didn’t see anyone else to ask until we were actually leaving. Overall this is a decent place which offers good value for money, but communications were not great and it is somewhat misrepresented on Expedia.

the outside seating area which I was looking for was not available, because if you went outside, there was a dog that barked like crazy. The rest I loved. There were 2 shared bathrooms for 4 bedrooms, but we did not wait for a bathroom EVER. The owner brought fresh Pastel de Nata every morning and we had a chat. The breakfast rooms were nice and we had a shelf in the fridge to store wine and food. an easy walk to the busy downtown area.

Wir konnten schon vor der Check-In Zeit ins Zimmer um unser Gepäck abzustellen, da es zum Glück schon fertig war. Auch am Tag der Abreise konnten wir das Gepäck noch den ganzen Tag im Wohnzimmer (frei zugänglich im Haus) abstellen, bis wir geflogen sind. Wir hatten eine Klimaanlage im Zimmer und die Zimmer sowie die Bäder waren sehr sauber. Es war nicht mehr alles im neusten Zustand, aber dennoch nicht schlecht. Morgens gab es dann noch ein kleines Frühstück mit Brötchen, ein paar Sachen für drauf, Pastel de Nata, Saft, Milch, Kaffee. Insgesamt also ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

It’s a guesthouse where you share the bathroom and the dining room. The bathroom is practicable and fulfill the function. The breakfast selection is simple but enough and we liked the self baked Pastéis the nata. If you search for an accommodation for a good price we can recommend it.

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.
