It was a quiet safe location. Rooms were a good size.

We did not appreciate that there was no self check in when our plane was delayed. We were not reimbursed our night but we were still not allowed to check in - in the morning. If you have a self check out- you could easily have a self check in. It is a money scam knowing there are so many delayed flights.

Kitchen has everything you need. Location is ok, free parking but in street (maybe you weren’t able to find nearby as it is in the street, it is also possible). Staff is kind, helpful.

Only problem is check in time, which strictly you can only check in till 10pm. After it, you will stay in street. So, keep in mind before booking.

Really good location, was accesible and near the Funchal center.

The person that helped us for the check in was really nice, was very polite and helpful. But when we made the checkout, the cleaning lady was very harsh and rude. Also the guy that had to receive the keys was cranky and rude. The place has potential, they just need staff like the guy that helped us with the check in.

The staff were really lovely.

The lack of soundproofing was not ideal. A good night’s sleep relies on other conscientious guests to be quiet, and they mostly were not. I only slept properly one night, but I have to say it’s difficult to stay quiet going in and out of the rooms with the keys/key chain provided, while locking/unlocking doors. The room I stayed in had a strange smell to it. I kept the window open as much as possible but it was winter time so got cold overnight. I used 4 layers of blankets to keep warm overnight, but 2 of them from the wardrobe in the room were stained so I doubt they were cleaned after their last use.
