This is a nice hotel located very close to the Faro old town. We travelled in November and rented a small car so we had no problem parking in their small garage - bigger cars and high season travelers may not be so lucky. The staff is very helpful and had great travel and restaurant recommendations (the night front desk guy, named Francisco if memory serves me, was particularly helpful). The place is scrupulously clean and the little kitchen has everything one could need, although we did not stay long enough to use it. The bathroom is small but handy and the little veranda is a delight. The best part of the hotel is the location, within walking distance of everything that the old town has to offer.
