“Ria View Guesthouse, exclusively for adults, struck me as a particularly well-situated base in Faro, moments from the Old Town. The rooftop terrace seems a real highlight, while the shared kitchen makes longer stays appealing. I particularly appreciated the swift attention to detail, such as the notably prompt response to a minor maintenance request.”
