Les matelas étaient très inconfortables, les ressorts étaient ressentis.

Pros:

Nice location, kind staff.

Cons:

It was often very noisy, no soundproofing at all. Everything was very old and worn out. For example doors didn't have any door seal and were making terrible noise with even the slightest air movement. Blinds didn't block the light from the street. Towels although washed had visible stains.

Pros:

The stay was pleasant, really simple building and rooms. Not luxury, not bad, a good compromise for that price. Some things were a bit old and '' used '' but the room was clean, location was perfect, food was also good.

Cons:

shower not the best, the rooms were not well isolated to you could hear all the noise from outside but It was fine eventually I had earplugs.

Des employés qui toquent la nuit alors que nous dormions. Puis qui entrent dans la chambre en utilisant leur clé... Alors que nous dormions. Pour venir récupérer un matelas.
Pas d'eau chaude pour la deuxième personne qui se douche.
Bruit de ventilation.

Spokojny pensjonat w centrum Machico, powoli wymagający remontu.
Pros:

Amparo znajduje się w samym centrum Machico, 200m. od kamienistej plaży. Ma małą restaurację, gdzie można zjeść śniadanie (i czasem kolację). Ma urok małego pensjonatu ale niestety też jego wady. Byliśmy tam po raz 4ty - pokoje jakby zastygły w czasie. Jeżeli traficie na rozsądne ceny a spokojny pensjonat wam wystarcza to warto.

Cons:

Amparo powoli starzeje się jako hotel/pensjonat. Od 14 lat niewiele tam się zmieniło, poza cenami, które - jak na całej Maderze - poszybowały do wartości z pogranicza rozsądku.
