Great central Faro hotel at good price

Great hotel, within 10-15 mins walking distance to Faro Old Town, Marina and bus/train station, very near shopping street. Perfect for overnight stays, super convenient location. Room was large, spacious double bed with comfy mattress, duvet and included towels/toiletries, tea/coffee/kettle, and good Wifi. Everything looks newly refurbished, very clean, light and airy. I had a really nice welcome by hotel staff on arrival, i would recommend staying to any traveller.

Perfect location for a good price. Comfortable and clean room. The only downside was there was no soundproofing between rooms so we could hear our neighbours tv at 5:30am when they switched it on and it was still on in the evening at 11pm.
