Advantages: close to airport and inexpensive Disadvantages: some aircraft noise
The Monaco is situated in the Montenegro district of Faro only a stones throw from the airport. It is an ideal location if you have an early morning flight and would like a nights sleep before traveling.
The hotel runs a regular shuttle to the airport for no extra charge and it is possible when checking in to arrange your own personal time if the timetable does not suit.
The hotel is very comfortable and not very expensive.
All rooms are pleasantly furnished and ensuite with tv and telephone plus mini bar and many have balconies.
The outdoor pool is situated in pleasant gardens and enjoys sun most of the day.
There is also an indoor pool and health spa open to residents.

Accommodation is very reasonably priced in Portugal like everything else. It might be cheaper for you to get a return flight and find accommodation whilst you are out there since there really is an abundance of it. However, if you like the security of knowing where you are going and staying then a package holiday might be better for you.

The people are wonderful. Really friendly and go out of their way to help you and make you feel welcome. There are lots of people who speak English, but it might also help you to carry a phrase book with you.
You might like to travel further than Faro if ...
