somebody else in the room in bed when we got there

Having landed quite late in the evening by the time we managed to find the place it was late. We had to ring the contact a couple of times to find it and get the access codes to the external door and room. To our horror when we entered the room there was already somebody sleeping in the bed. I dont know who was more shocked but he pushed us out and shut the door. I then couldnt get hold of the contact as it was now almost 2300. We had to go to a local bar and thankfully the guys running it took us to a local hostel on avenue de infante where we paid for a room

Can definitely recommend

It was really nice to stay at the Travellers Pearl by Stort tellers. Before my stay I was a little sceptic about the missing front desk, but with the email the hotel sent to me about a week before my stay it was very easy to settle in.

Not pleased

Hotels.com guaranteed the 2 rooms I booked but Travellers called and said there was a problem and they didn’t have the other room, SO, we were crammed in one room. NOT COOL! I asked how do I get a refund, she tells me, I would need to go through whoever I booked it with. That has been difficult as well.

Excellent location / Good Value

Great location in Funchal's old town area and walking distance to most things in the city. Very clean, keyless entry is great, the cleaning ladies were brilliant and extremely helpful if you needed anything. There are no facilities or front desk, it is literally just the apartment and nothing else, so if this suits your requirements, I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Spacious apartment close to the centre

We travel internationally regularly and alway stay in apartments. Traveller pearl by storytellers is as good as you will find anywhere. Additionally, a collection of fresh rolls and croissants are delivered early morning daily which are discretely placed in a wrapped bag outside the apartment door. The apartment is cleaned daily at a time convenient for you and is well maintained. The apartment is very well located within easy reach to town on foot and in a quiet location. There is a private car space if required. We really enjoyed staying there and would recommend this beautiful apartment and will definitely seek to stay there again on our return.
