We’d book it again when in Madeira
Pros:

Very responsive property management, ultra central and most basic necessities in place.

Cons:

Lack of wardrobe and a few kitchen utilities for cleaning for long term stays were missing

Un super séjour à Madère
Pros:

L'appartement est idéalement placé en plein centre de Funchal, tout est accessible à pied. Les rues ne sont pas pour autant bruyantes. Arrivée et départ autonome avec des instructions claires sans mauvaise surprise. La literie est particulièrement bonne.

Cons:

Petit bémol sur le peu de rangement pour les vêtements, il y a juste une petite commode dans l'entrée et un portant avec cintres.

Pros:

Nádherné, čisté ubytování přímo v centru Funchalu. Krásný výhled ze 4. Patra na město i moře. Velmi ochotný personál, nemáme c9 vytknout!

Cons:

Pokud cestujete po Madeiře autem, je trošku problém v centru zaparkovat, ale i to jsme nakonec zvládli.

Super zentrale und saubere Wohnung.
Pros:

Traumlage! Ein sehr sauberes und komfortables Apartment.

Cons:

Die Fotos zum Apartment haben nicht ganz mit der Realität gepasst. So hatten wir ein anderes Apartment als abgebildet, was nicht schlimm war, aber wir doch gern den Stadtblick vom kleinen Balkon gehabt hätten. Außerdem ist die Parkplatzreservierung schief gelaufen, was kein Beinbruch war, aber noch einmal etwas Mehraufwand gebracht hatte. Für ein, zwei Tage Funchal erleben, war es eine passende Unterkunft.
