We booked this hotel due its close (5 min) proximity to Faro Airport on the eve of our morning departure to the US. We were pleasantly surprised to find a modern comfortable accommodation to spend our last night in Faro after leaving our hotel in Lagos. Car service to the hotel by Uber was under 50 EU and made it possible to enjoy our last evening in a great local restaurant called Restaurant Ramos. We walked to and back there from the hotel on very quiet streets. I should mention that the hotel offered a great view of the city and the surrounding area. Food and drinks were available and could be enjoyed inside or out on the patio or poolside. I would highly recommend the Ria Formosa Guest House

Ria Formosa guesthouse was new to us; and turned out to be an excellent choice. It is comfortable, with good facilities, and the duty manager was extremely helpful. He happily organised a taxi for us to the airport at 3.50 am, and made sure the taxi firm confirmed it. We would stay there again with no hesitation.
