    Excellent location, clean room, and helpful staff
    Catherine - Jan 1, 2022

    These apartments are in an excellent location: they are in the old city but slightly away from the most touristic areas. My room had lovely traditional parquet floors and wicker decorations. It was perfectly clean and there was a well-equipped kitchenette and bathroom with rainforest shower. The hotel has an excellent buffet breakfast downstairs which includes bread, ham, cheese, eggs, cereal, and tasty Madeiran pastries. There is also a roof terrace garden. The staff were responsive and helpful when I had questions. My room was on the first floor and there was some noise outside the first night when I had the window open - street sounds and someone nearby having a party - but it was a budget room so that was understandable. There is parking in the street outside in the blue spaces as well as a large public carpark at the top of the street (off Rua Pimenta Aguiar at the corner of Rua das Cruzes). It's free overnight on weekdays (8am-8pm) and about Euro 2.50 for 4 hours parking during business hours. Coins are required to buy a ticket. The hotel also provides 24 hour parking in a private carpark for an additional cost, but I didn't use it. Overall, it was a lovely convenient hotel and I'd stay there again.
