Adresse à garder pour un court séjour au coeur de Funchal
Pros:

la situation géographique au coeur du centre ville. Le parking privé. La propreté. Le petit déjeuner.

Cons:

La porte d'entrée est limite cachée entre 2 magasins et surtout, j'ai attendu environ 20 mn à la porte car je ne savais pas qu'il fallait appuyer sur un petit bouton pour pouvoir ouvrir la porte et, qu'il fallait monter au 1er étage pour accéder à l'accueil. Décor un peu vieillot qui mériterait d'être un peu plus équipée par exemple avec une bouilloire, ....

Uma experiência muito positiva, que recomendo sem hesitação.
Pros:

Excelente opção para uma estadia confortável e bem localizada. O hotel tem uma localização privilegiada, permitindo um acesso fácil aos principais pontos de interesse da zona. Excelente vista sobre a marina (do terraço).

Os proprietários são extremamente atenciosos, simpáticos e sempre disponíveis para ajudar, tornando a estadia ainda mais acolhedora. O pequeno-almoço é muito bom, variado e bem preparado.

O quarto era espaçoso, confortável e com boas condições para descansar.

Cons:

Nada a apontar

Posizione eccellente
Pros:

La posizione per girare la città è ottima. Molti servizi e locali vicini. Camera abbastanza ampia con una zona scrivania molto ampia. Bene il bagno. Buona insonorazione così come gli oscuranti delle finestre. Buona la colazione anche se lo spazio è un po' piccolo. Ottimo il personale disponibile ad aiutarci.

Cons:

Avevamo chiesto una camera con due letti singoli ed un matrimoniale, ma abbiamo trovato solo una culla. Per una notte ci siamo arrangiati, niente di sconvolgente. Il parcheggio privato è un po' distante (10 min. a piedi) e non è facile trovare parcheggio vicino alla struttura, ma vista la posizione, è un malus che vale la pena sopportare.

Wonderful place in the heart of Funchal
Pros:

Excellent location, friendly helpful staff, clean, comfortable, good breakfast

Cons:

It took the a/c a day and a half to work, or it took us a day and a half to figure out the a/c. Either way, we were hot for a bit.
