A lovely oceanside room with a great view and easy beach access - despite it's quirks it worked.
Pros:

Location was fantastic, right on the beach and near to some time restaurants. It was easy to get anywhere from the hotel whether going into Ponta Delgada for sight seeing or out into the hills.
The staff were very kind and attentive. They answered all our questions and helped us out. They're very diligent about cleaning.

Cons:

I expected the ocean to be noisy but the room had some quirks that made it louder. On top of the waves the wind whistled in through some cracks and kept us up at night. Bring ear plugs! The beds were really hard unless you like a firm mattress.
The bathroom also had mold in it and everything generally smelled of mildew when it rained a lot and was humid.

Pros:

L’hôtel borde la mer et la plage est très grande et propre. Les réceptionnistes sont très serviables et gentils, particulièrement Edgar je crois.

Cons:

Les corridors et les escaliers ne semblent pas propres. L’équipement sanitaire en mauvais état et le petit déjeuner minimal.
