總隊長旅館(Guest House Capitao Mor)

Stedet lå midt i sentrum. Et hus med sjel, et flott rom og en deilig takterrasse. Trivelig betjening. Litt festbråk utenfor på natters tid hørtes godt om vinduet sto oppe. Ved lukket vindu gikk det greit. Eget bad og toalett og et bra kjøkken

The woman who runs this is really nice and speaks excellent English. But, she is not there most of the time i.e. this is not a place with staff on site 24 hours. Also, be aware that cabs cannot drop you directly here - the alley is too narrow. They can get within a couple hundred feet though. Less than 10 minute walk to bus station, with a bus going to airport (right next to train station). Some of the other travelers who were there were a bit odd and left the kitchen messy. It's kind of an echo-y place since everything is tile. Very centrally located though - everything is walkable. Definitely some street drinking going on weekend nights in the alley it is on. The shower is tiny - and I am like 5'8" and saying that. It is also a VERY slippery shower floor - needs some simple pieces of grip tape. I would consider staying here again but would also look at other options.

Zum Glück wenig Gäste. Fernseher hat nicht funktioniert

Le Guest House est une superbe auberge de jeunesse. L’entrée est libre c’est à dire que vous pouvez rentrer à l’heure que vous souhaitez ce qui constitue un vrai avantage. Les chambres et les salles de bain sont propres. La vue du rooftop est super belle. Elle est située dans une rue calme en plein centre à deux pas des bars et des restaurants. Nous vous le conseillons fortement.

Stayed here as a couple but this place would also be great for a solo backpacker. I’d describe it as being more like a private room in a hostel rather than a traditional guesthouse with host on site. The location is right by the centre of Faro, the shopping streets are only a couple of minutes walk away. The Guesthouse has a lovely roof terrace and upper room where you can sits and eat your food, and there is a kitchen with a microwave, kettle, toaster, etc where you can prepare something. I did find that it was a bit noisy outside on the street, as you are right by the bars, so you might want to bring some earplugs. The room was fine, shared bathrooms but it was right next to the room. For a budget trip this Guesthouse was a good choice if you aren’t looking for anything too fancy.

Good location and conveniently situated for eateries and buses. Now for the not so nice! Very hard double bed and only one pillow each. No chair or waste bin in the room. The floor was full of hairs and not at all clean. The shower doors would not close properly causing a flood all the way into our room which we had to mop up for 3 days as there was no housekeeping and we had to use one of our towels for this as there was no mop to be seen. Needless to say the old expression “you get what you pay for” is absolutely true. On the plus side we saved a few Euros although we found a hotel for the same price which included breakfast. We have checked out and re located.

I always seem to easily impressed but yet again I am. Last week I was in £200 per night London hotel....this guest house trumps it in every way. Check in was easy via email, location can't be better. Shared bathroom was spotlessly clean and should not put people off. Faro is fabulous for a short break, loved it.

We were surprised to be able to book this stay through British Airways Avios points: if this was a reward, god help anyone getting a penalty from them! Our first surprise was accidentally finding that check in was limited to 3.5 hours in the afternoon. After a week of trying we found an email address and from that a means to self check in. When the shower was used in the external (shared) bathroom water came under our door turning the tiled floor into a skating rink so thankfully we seemed to be alone in the building. The bed was lumpy and hard to say the least. On the plus side the location is old town and next door to Manis - an amazing Nepalese restaurant. Will we return? Please guess ~ clue 2 letters 1st N.

Silvia was an absolutely fantastic host. The communication before and during the trip was outstanding! Our room was ample in size for us both and extremely clean, we did not have our own bathroom, but the shared ones were also extremely clean, with plenty of toilet rolls and soap. The property supplies you with towels towels provided were extremely soft like those in 5* hotels! The roof top terrace was a lovely addition. We sat and enjoyed many coffees up their. The stairs are narrow with them being spiral to climb but nothing too worrying my companion which a bad leg managed them quite fine. The kitchen facilities are fantastic, although i only used the kettle and two mugs. The other guests really do appreciate where they are staying, there were never any pots or mess in the kitchen. Now the location for us was amazing very central and close to nightlife. however, where our room was we couldn't hear any of the music, which was excellent the room had two sets of windows and shutters so it guarded the noise. When i say two lots of windows, there was a sliding door porch, large enough for one to sit, then shutters and windows. We only stayed for two nights but we most definitely will be back. Just to add this was a last minute booking were we had never stepped foot in portugal before it was fabulous definitely will be back to portugal and definitely use this accommodation again! Thank you for having us! Amazing 10/10
