Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The rooms were clean and large and the breakfast was plentiful and fresh. There is parking for extra 6E per day. The staff, especially some of the front desk give off an inapproachable vibe and getting information from them was frustrating. They seemed very unhappy. The area outside had a handful of homeless me who made us feel uncomfortable. They were there consistently during our entire visit and at times loud.

Not bad but not sure I would stay there again

Quaint boutique hotel within walking distance to center city…. Right near gates, bell tower and waterfront. A very short walk to Antonio Borges botanical gardens (you must eat lunch at their restaurant- THE BEST). A little longer walk to Arruda Pineapple Plantation which was our favorite plantation. We flew overnight and arrived early morning and they allowed us to check in earlier, very much appreciated. Room was spacious by Europe standards. Minor issues to start, internet issue until the next day, safety box needed new batteries, no big deal. They do offer breakfast buffet (included) and it got progressively worse by the day. I feel they need to seriously improve it. We rented a car for the weekend and the hotel is affiliated with the agency connected to hotel. Several dinner options all pretty good and within walking distance. If I come back it would be summertime and would definitely stay more in the Furnas area…. It wa our favorite day by far, try not to miss the thermal spa there.
