Breakfast was excellent and lovely on the rooftop patio!
The room was a bit cramped for 2 people with luggage but that's Europe. All the amenities were there.

Breakfast was very good and the rooftop view was nice. Staff was very friendly at breakfast.
Room was exceptionally small. Sink in the bathroom was so small you could not really use it. No TV in the room. Very few amenities. Floor needed sweeping.

Great location, beautiful terrace, clean, friendly staff
No fridge, some strange rules (no eating or drinking in rooms, lots of lists of fines/rules up around room for example- towels can’t be marked in any way or you’ll be charged). This made it feel quite cheap when it was in fact quite expensive.

The hotel is located very close to the East-West entrance of the old town. Close to the shopping streets and numerous cafes and restaurants. Interiors are done up tastefully and well maintained.
Check in time was 1500hrs but the staff were very courteous to take care of our baggage till then. So it isn't too much of a pain.

We need to depart early and we were offered a Togo breakfast bag that was delivered before we were sleeping.

Kind, well organised staff. Pleasant roof terrace shared area with a view for breakfast. Everything was clean and attractive. Brilliant location. Quiet but central. Lift to all floors.
Room was a bit small, faced an inner courtyard where builders are working at present.
However I’d stay there again.

The location was very good, right near the old town and with a large free car park close by. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the hotel was clean and had a nice rooftop terrace. Breakfast was simple but nice.
The room was quite small with no view at all, just a tiny walled courtyard - you really wouldn't sit there! There was a terrible smell on the upper floors (fortunately our room was on the ground floor). This smell was apparently caused by a guest using the kitchen to cook some prawns. It was really unpleasant and lasted through to the next morning and could still smell it when we had breakfast. We were there in February and it was too cool to use the rooftop terrace for breakfast but that would have been pleasant.

Room was good size, very comfortable bed, there was A/C in the room available for heating of the room which was needed as it was rather cold. Breakfast was simple but nice. Definitely superb staff on arrival and during assistance in the kitchen. Kitchen available at the top floor with big terrace which would be nice if it was warm outside. Also location convenient if you come with a car as there is a big free parking nearby.
I guess room will be fine during warm season, it was a bit cold when we arrived to the room. The water in the shower could be warmer as well but I guess not that critical when it is warm outside. If you like bustling area, this flat is a bit further away form bars and restaurants, but still not a bad distance to have a nice walk.

Nice place, good location. Close to free city parking. In January no problem with parking. Breakfast in terrace. Very nice upstairs living room and terrace. It was a little bit cool inside as it is winter. Close to the old town and marina.

The location was perfect: on walking disctance from the center.
The breakfast...pre-decide how much a person would like to eat is hard, but this was just not enough and the quality also not so good. It would be so much better if you could choose what and how much you would like to eat. Even if you want to minimize the waste, just buy a fixed amount of what is used the most (measure it for 1 month and than you have the information).
4.0
Central location, but on a quiet street (except for planes flying to / from Faro Airport)
Nice breakfast on the rooftop
Very nice and helpful staff
Clean rooms
Lift
For me personally the noise from the planes flying over was annoying especially in the morning, but with Faro being so small, pretty sure it would be the same everywhere else 😉
Bathrooms are a bit claustrophobic
5.0
The location was excellent...short walk to old town. Very quiet area. Lots of free parking. Nice breakfast. We had a nice room with a balcony looking out on the quiet street.
There is no TV in the room, but didn't really miss it. I imagine if everyone had tvs the hotel wouldn't be as quiet so it's probably a good thing. I noticed there was a TV in the common room though.
3.0
Close to public parking and entrance to old town & restaurants. The facility was clean and no fuss. Served on the roof top patio, the breakfast was prepared once we arrived and they were able to accommodate my vegetarian needs. Wi-fi was easily available too. Plus it was easily located off of the guy and through GPS.
No TV in the room.
3.5
Breakfast served on rooftop service was reasonable quality but overall great experience
