Hotel was great. Very eco friendly. Friendly staff. Check in / out was simple. Room was clean but pretty basic but did have a TV although no fridge or safe. Beds were comfy, we asked for extra pillows which we were given. We didn’t have breakfast included but we didn’t go in for breakfast. Check out Chelsea breakfast, it’s about a 10 minute walk. We were also able to leave bags as our flight wasn’t until 8:50pm and check out was noon.
This hotel is about a 10 minute walk from old town Faro. If you walk down the back streets there are lots of abandoned buildings or buildings being renovated. To be honest, it does look a little war torn Bosnia. With that being said, take a right out of the hotel and a left and you are on the main road to the the town.
The town is well connected, there are buses, a train station and even a ferry that goes across to a beach on the other side of the water. We took the bus to Faro from Sevilla for a two night break and then flew back to liverpool from Faro. We didn’t venture that far out as we were only there two days but there’s not loads to do in the place where we were, you’d definitely have to have some plans and just use the hotel as a base. Uber to airport was €6, another bonus!
