7.4/10

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was great, right in the city center close to everything I needed, but the room was not without its issues, especially with the noise and maintenance issues. The service was friendly and helpful, which was a plus, but the dining experience left something to be desired. Overall, it was an okay stay.

Rooms

6.0

The room faced the back yard filled with aircon units that hummed all night, making it hard to keep the balcony door open for fresh air. The room had a smoky smell and showed signs of aging with paint coming off and a broken light fixture. It could use some renovations, although the size was ample.

Service

Location

The hotel is right in the city center, which was convenient for exploring. It was close to the marina, main bus stop, and pedestrian shopping streets, yet surprisingly quiet and not overrun by tourists.

Dining

7.0

The dining experience was simple but ample, with fresh fruits and orange juice being highlights. However, it was a bit of a shambles at times, and having a different meat option on some days would have been appreciated.

The hotel is in a central location in the heart of the Old Town, making it convenient for most activities in Faro. Despite being close to eateries and bars, the surrounding area is quiet, allowing for a good night's sleep. The rooms, though a bit on the older side, are cozy and modern with comfortable beds and a good shower, but lacking in ample space and had issues with hot water during my stay.
