Charming property lovingly maintained

Staff very helpful and friendly. Thought paying deposit for towels was unnecessary.Furniture was dated , hotel very clean

Paying refundable deposit for towels

Great view from the junior suite, looking at the ocean and pool, including a very nice large balcony. The hotel is at a good location, next to the pier so a quick stroll down the promenade to the center of Funchal. The breakfast was good, with an omelette station and a big ham to cut. Many cheeses and fresh fruits as well. The room was clean!

The restaurant had weird hours, on Friday night a DJ was playing super loudly until 11pm (this is right below the suite so super loud), and yet on Sundays they don't do dinner service at all and instead have a half menu of burgers and sandwiches. The pool could have been a bit warmer but made it work. The coffee wasn't the best at breakfast. The furniture and overall hotel seemed a bit dated and overall in need of upgrade. Not to be more modern, just less worn. There is a second entrance and reception to the junior suite which can be confusing, think they should have explained that in the booking so we can order a cab to the right location.
