Pros:

I liked sea view by garden room view this is the best. Also area is amazing

Cons:

1)The first room we were on wasnt proper sea view it was full of balconies and walla we with very little shade of sea not the room we booked. But we talked to them they changed for us to better room on 5 floor see the sea directly and was sorted but spend first night of 5 days stays on a room we didnt like but we paid for as much as the room we want

2) water cost 8 euro in this hotel and they only give you water on arrival


3h breakfast could be better. Coffee is bad

Hotel w dobrej lokalizacji z malymi mankamentami.
Pros:

Lokalizacja, ogrod, czysty pokoj. Piekny widok na ocean.
Przystanek przy hotelu ulatwia szybka komunikacje z centrum.
Hotel przyjazny seniorom, co Nam osobiscie pasowalo ,cisza, spokoj i kultura.

Cons:

Brak wody pitnej w pokoju w standardzie 4 gwiazdkowego hotelu ( spotkałem się z tym pierwszy raz) .

Expres do kawy w pokoju obejmuje za darmo 4 kapsułki- ktore później nie są uzupełniane - trzeba dopłacić, sic!

Cena obiadokolacji - 40euro nie obejmuje żadnych napojów- poza tym jakość nieadekwatna do ceny. Za dwie osoby lekko wychodzi 100euro :)

Monotonność śniadań. Mało ryb, raz w tyg łosoś to za mało jak na hotel nad oceanem:) pieczywo slabej jakosci .

Siłownia- brak klimatyzacji , gorąco jest tam niemiłosiernie, nie da sie zrobic normalnego treningu, czyjesz sie jak saunie.

Drzwi od pokoi nie maja spowalniacza , poranek budzi cie trzaskajacymi drzwiami Twoich sąsiadów- gdybym nie mial stoperow jakosc snu bylaby tragiczna.

Fint hotell men typiskt pensionärs hotell
Pros:

Okej frukost. Trevlig o hjälpsam personal o fint hotell.

Cons:

Kall pool, typiskt pensionärs hotell. Vi åkte med en 6 åring men fanns inget o göra för barn så tyvärr va vi inte så mycket på hotellet som vi hade tänkt.

Se mi avessero rimborsato la prima notte sarebbe stato eccellente!
Pros:

Colazione e cena

Cons:

Non mi hanno rimborsato la prima notte in cui non ho usufruito dei servizi, per via del maltempo non siamo atterrati all'aeroporto di Funchal, abbiamo raggiunto l'isola solamente il giorno dopo.
