We literally were staying in a shed on top of their patio. It was not worth the 30 euros we paid that is for sure. Faro itself is not a city to visit in the first place. It is a neglected city, but not a beautiful neglected city. It is literally falling apart and the area where this guest house... More

I've never seen the point of paying a vast premium for a luxury hotel when you can pay half the price for just as comfortable a sleep, just without the chocolates on your pillow. If you're like me, you'll be happy with the Guest House Sao Filipe. The rooms are small (especially the bathrooms), and I didn't have a view... More

We just needed an overnight break in a trip from Seville to Lisbon. We were looking for a place close to the bus and train station. Not the best part of town, but it appears the economic downturn has hit the whole city. Not nearly as pretty and inviting as we were expecting but it may have been the area... More

When we first arrived we were a little worried as the area around the guest house is very run down. However when we went into the hostel we were pleasantly surprised as it was light, clean and well maintained. The staff were very friendly and helpful and gave us advice about places we could go and things that we could... More

We spent in Sao Filipe 14 days. The guest house is situated 10 min. walk from citycentre in the quiet place. Room was small but clean. Airconditioning and TV were available in the room. Service was very good. Bus stop (to go to the beach) is 2 min from guest house. We really enjoyed our stay there and would like... More
