1st room has mould in bathroom. Exchange another room after complain. Both rooms are in poor condition, very torn down, very dark inside the room. Elevator broke down when check out. I have to carry my 40 lbs suitcase down by stairs. The hotel only spend on lobby renovation, it is a total different world in guest room. I would suggest “stay away” from stay hotel faro Centro.

We were there for two nights. When we checked in, the room had not been completely cleaned. The carpeting had not been vacuumed and the air-conditioner dripped loudly on the carpet all night. The person at the desk said there was nothing they could do until morning. The next morning the manager said we could move rooms, but we were on our way out and only had one day in the city so we told her to just have the room cleaned and we would live with the leaking air-conditioner. When we returned that evening, the room had not been cleaned, not even touched. Again they said there was nothing they could do until morning. They gave us an email addres to register a complaint but no one ever replied to us.

Only stayed one night but upon entry, our room smelled awful. There is no AC/power (which is common) until your card is in the room, but it was very stinky, 26 degrees Celsius when we got in. The walls were so dirty, several spill spots down them from previous guests and the bathroom light didn’t work. The bed itself seemed okay and sheets were clean but the walls and carpet were disgusting to be honest. Staff were very polite and friendly. Location as great also. But I would not stay here again because of the rooms.

Nicely renovated lobby but the rooms could use some love, care and a good cleaning. The shower had lots of black mold and the shower seal was taped back on which resulted in a lot of water outside the shower. Staff was friendly and let us switch rooms at the beginning due to AC making a clunking noise every 15 seconds when on. Wouldn’t recommend staying here for the $170 we paid for one night.

Room was quite grubby in places, carpet very worn and areas in the room, the bathroom was nice and modern seemed to be the only thing that had been refurbished? In a nice safe area, really close to the front and local shops, id say its a 2-3 star rather than 3-4. Id recommend for 2 nights maybe which is what we did, thats probably enough in faro anyway as there isnt loads to do / see.

Location was great! Room was dirty: there was a shoeprint in bathroom wall and coffee stains on bedside-table. When showering the water flooded all over bathroom floor and I'm pretty sure some of it went all the way under hallways carpet, so if you are allergic to mold - don't choose this hotel. Bathroom wall seams had visible mold in them. Air conditioner worked well and plane noices didn't bother in this room (401).

Our room did not have a proper shower cubicle. Due to room being a small rhombus shape the shower cubicle was the same, and was not large enough for someone to shower without hitting the shower bi-fold door. The door did not close properly so every time you shower the water went out the tray all over the small bathroom. The shower hose was split so half the water did not come out the shower head. There's no where to put hand soap at the sink and in the shower there was nowhere to put the bottles of shower products provided. Overall poor set-up. They should not be charging the same rate as other rooms which had a bathtub. The bed had a piece of 2inch thick foam, where the bottom sheet would come off. The hotel itself was located in very central location and staff were friendly. We didn't try breakfast, so unable to comment on that.

The location was perfect and also the staff was very friendly. The room was spacious and also the bathroom was clean. However the ac worked fine but one part of it was about to fall off. Also the towel hanger in the bathroom fell off from one side and the water clogged in the shower. If you are looking for a hotel in the centre of faro this is the perfect choice. If you want luxury this hotel might not meet your expectations.

Great location, good price, exceptional staff. We stayed for two nights before flying home and the lady at the reception desk asked us how we had found the room, street noise and if she could do anything for us. We asked if we could get a coffee and she not only provided this in the breakfast area but showed us how to use the coffee machine and then made us two coffees. It's a small thing but I really meant a lot to us.

Great little hotel on the edge of old town. Breakfast is available for purchase but the Pastelaria across the street is amazing…don’t miss out on the pastel de nata and espresso! Everything is completely walkable and we had the best time there! Faro is small town friendly and we’ve never felt safer walking streets and back alleys at night. Take the tuk tuk tour to get an overview of the area and pay attention to the guide…he was a living history book and we had a great idea of what we wanted to see and in what order afterwards. Faro was amazing, you won’t regret your visit or this hotel.

A comfortable hotel (despite the absence of plate and cuttlery for breakfast on the first morning. It was obvious the ladies serving breakfast were rushed off their feet and had run out of plates, which, at 8.30 AM should not really happen so maybe the hotel needs to look at providing the staff with what they need, including possibly another member of staff to help!) The room and bed was very comfortable,, the bathroom was clean, and the hotel location was brilliant, literally around the corner from the pedestrian shopping area, and within a 5 to 10min walk from the marina and the old town. Would highly recommend for a quick escape / city break!
