We went there last December on b&b base. That hotel is very tired and in need for a refurbishment. It is a shame because the location is very good and there is a beautiful sea view. Breakfast was average if not poor...and dead cockroach on the floor was not really appetizing...Rooms were clean and we did have a one with... More

Stayed there in early March 2013. The location is good being a bus ride or decent walk from the centre of Funchal but also with easy access to the promenade and a lovely walk overlooking the sea westwards. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was ok for a 3 star hotel but only two choices of main... More

Yes,this hotel does need a bit of TLC but the rooms are adequate and the food is excellent, the staff are friendly and welcoming and all rooms have a balcony with a sea view .this is a central hotel and just yards from the local bus into the centre though its only a 20 minute walk. I would recommend this... More

Stayed here in November 2012 for a week while visiting friends and family. Being originally from Madeira I knew what to expect. The Hotel needs updating and their food is not great but you pay peanuts, so don't expect caviar. Overall friendly Staff and clean room, that was the only think I need it. There are plenty of good restaurants... More

Arrived lunchtime Friday transferred to another Hotel by Saturday am. Rooms filthy and smelly. Bed linen dirty and stained. Pillows smelt of stale urine. DISGUSTING DISGUSTING DISGUSTING. The Locals all agree that this Hotel should be closed and is locally regarded as a "Cancer" of the area, the locals words not mine. This hotel may only be graded as a... More

Studio had 2 hotplates and full sized fridge, but no kettle, toaster or microwave. However we managed very well with the limited equipment and would book again if money was tight. Staff were helpful, towels and bedding changed every other day. Plenty of sunbeds at the pool, pool towels supplied.

Not the prettiest of Hotels to look at from the outside and once inside very basic and functional, no frills. So basic in fact there was no ceiling fan or air conditioning in the room which at 27-30 degrees would have been nice. I went to reception on the first day to inquire about access to a little kitchenette the... More

A basic 3 star hotel that does what it says on the tin. Definitely 70's engineering that coul do with a bit of a facelift. However the staff were friendly, very helpfull and always had time to assist with any issues we had. Also while eing old the hotel was immaculately cleaned as was the pool which we sw being... More
