Hotel 3K Faro Aeroporto
"Extremely basic hotel. Fine for one night before a flight, but don’t expect much. Breakfast is very underwhelming. Save the €15 and just walk to Pingo Doce across the street instead. Beds are not very comfortable either, but for a quick overnight stay it does the job I guess."
