What
I love most about this hostel is the spacious lounge and the large
bulletin board on the wall containing oh so helpful information like maps and
schedules of both buses and trains going all directions, regardless if you want
to head north to Porto or east to Seville. This, I believe, is the biggest
favor a guesthouse could offer an overwhelmed tourist. The room rate includes
breakfast: three kinds of drinks; three kinds of bread; three kinds of cereals;
and three kinds of dips/jams. The Wi-Fi did not reach my room, but was very
fast. I was uploading 200 MB videos in less than ten minutes. That is insane,
at least for me.



I
was supposed to be in a 12-bed dorm, but for some reason there was no more
space left when I came in after midnight, which meant getting upgraded to an
empty 6-bed dorm with its own en suite bathroom. Not bad, I tell you, except
for the foul smell of the bathroom reminiscent of old houses you see in horror
movies. Or at least that is how I imagine they would smell like. Other than
this little caveat, I have no more complaints and I am very satisfied with this
hostel! Location-wise, they are just around 10 minutes walking distance from
the train and bus stations. But then again, Faro is really small.
