We had to take the airplane in FAO around noon, so we decided to travel from Lagos to Faro one day before departure. We found this lovely hostel. There is a lift in the hostel, which is much easier with our luggage. Our double bed en-suite room is lovely, bright and clean. On the second floor, there is a beautiful terrace and a kitchen. We sat there and had our breakfast provided by the staff. The location is good and easy to walk around the old town area. There was a big event, the Motor Club gathering, while we were in Faro. The traffic was a bit crazy. In short, we were happy with our experience in Sunlight House!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This was the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in, the decor was simply beautiful and it had such a nice vibe. It was really well equipped and very clean. The staff were so friendly, especially Maria who was so warm, welcoming and helpful from the moment I arrived! Really good value for money, I couldn’t recommend this hostel more! I will definitely be back. Thanks again to Maria for her kindness and hospitality ❤️

    Casa da Madalena is in a great location, especially for the airport to hostel bus, no. 16, as well as the boats to the islands and old town. Very friendly and helpful staff who named a few local authentic restaurants to eat very good food. Safe and relaxed atmosphere and easy to chat to other travellers. Pancakes great of course, and a nice way to meet everyone and have small talk or make plans for the day.
