Pleasant and spacious stay in a central Funchal location
Pros:

I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the hotel room, which was more like a small apartment. The location of the hotel is good with a short walking distance to the very centre of Funchal. Breakfast was good, things worked well with the staff. The hotel is also stylish, as a design hotel should be.

A lovely hotel marred by poor wifi
Pros:

Very friendly reception with efficient service. The hotel has a unique character and the bed was exceptionally comfy.

Cons:

Wifi reception on the 4th floor was so poor as to be unusable. Since the in-room smart TV also relied on the wifi this made it useless!

Bel hotel, à taille humaine, bien situé. Chambre moderne et bien équipée. Personnel très agréable.
Pros:

Hotel très bien situé dans le centre ville de Funchal. A coté d'un centre commercial et supermarché. Chambre de type petit appartement spacieuse, propre et bien équipée. Très bon petit déjeuner. Personnel très accueillant et aimable, parlant français pour certains.

Cons:

Pas calme, trop de bruit. Notre chambre au 1er étage donnait sur la Rua Da Carreira. Impossible de dormir avant 2h3O du matin. A cause d'un rassemblement de jeunes motards dans la rue. Bruits de motos, chants et cris une partie de la nuit. Vitrage de l'hotel inefficace. Les chambres donnant sur la Rua Da Alegria sont peut être plus calmes ?

Cons:

quarto pequeno e não ter uma mesa para usar o pc. visto que fui em trabalho
