I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious, very clean, and overlooked the beautiful pool. The only downside was the lack of clear room allocation on arrival. The room was incredibly comfy with a large bathroom and an extra-large shower that had amazing water pressure.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms offered a partial sea and pool view, the main view was less desirable overlooking a residential block with occasional laundry on display. The service was friendly but lacked in guidance for exploring Funchal. The location was convenient with easy access to transportation but somewhat dark downstairs. The dining experience was a standout, compensating for the room's plainness. The facilities were decent overall.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, despite being spacious and well-equipped with a double bed and 2 sofa beds, were located in a somewhat strange underground basement setting, which affected the overall ambiance. However, the service from reception to domestic staff was top-notch - friendly, efficient, and always ready to assist. The hotel's location was convenient for exploring the island by car and was close to the 'Forum' shopping center and public transportation. The dining options were a bit of a hit and miss, with outstanding choices but also some mediocre offerings. Overall, the facilities were decent, providing a comfortable stay with a few limitations.
