Great location - Functional rooms and adequate breakfast - Good value -
Pros:

A great location for a short stay within easy access to the airport, old town of Faro and Faro beach all 5-6 euros using Uber.
Functional breakfast, reasonable choice and quality of food. Lovley well maintained pool area with plenty of sun lounges.
Almost all the staff were pleasant, polite and professional and eager to help with any queeries, especially reception colleagues who provided a warm welcome. The bar / restaurant colleagues were exceptional and truly did their best to provide a service that please all the people all of the time, this is not an easy task for one member of staff. The breakfast colleagues and room staff all very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The lack of staff resource in the bar / restaurant is poor. We stayed x 4 nights and each eve we seen just one colleague aim to manage greeting residents, taking orders, cooking both food and serving drink orders, serving food and drinks, taking telephone room service orders, serving room service orders taking food to rooms, clear and tidy tables, support with TV channels, help residents with items in locked fridges, washing up and least not taking payments.
Residents gave up on waiting for their food and left the restaurant often tired from travelling and were hungry and frustrated. When this was highlighted to the manager he proceeded to give the colleague a dressing down and offered absolutly no assistance or solution to the problem and to what could be a very different bar / restaurant expierience if more staff were available.
Who ever is managing the bookings surely must be aware how many residents are booked in each eve and for new arrivals at what time approx they are expected to arrive after no doubt a long journety most probably tired and hungry only to order food and leave after waiting over an hour for their order.

Retro
Pros:

Snídaně, ale tu kazila nepříjemná obsluha. Recepce a možnost ubytovat se po půlnoci.

Cons:

Výhled z okna do zdi a přízemí tak nízké, že nebyla možnost nechat otevřené okno, jelikož by nám tam mohl někdo vlézt. Fén, který byl tak retro, že si ve svých 45 letech nepamatuji, že by takový existoval. Hotel má 4 hvězdy, které mohly ale odpovídat tak před 30 lety.
