Hotel Alnacir is clean, well maintained and has friendly staff. The breakfast is good and it is excellent value for money all around. Also it is only a very short walk away from the marina/centre of Faro.

Bare bones hotel but strategically located. Less than 15 minutes from the airport and within 10 minutes from the marina. Plenty of food options within walking distance. The hotel itself needs upgrading. Staff are quite friendly.

Fine for one night.
Lumpy mattress and wi-fi at best reached one bar. The room was dated but very clean. OK for one night and good location between the centre of town and Forum shopping mall. The bus to the airport is just round the corner.

The indoor parking lot should be used, as you state on the website. We were informed that only the sidewalk parking was available, meaning that if it was full, we would have to look for parking on the street. And the advertisement doesn't specify this. I need to improve.

The hotel is basic but doesn’t pretend to be anything but that
But to be fair to them I booked 10 minutes before I arrived due to my original accommodation being disgusting .
So thank you to them and the nice man on reception for squeezing me in at the last minute
