“Hotel was only ok as it lacked atmosphere and the staff did not really try to please. It needs a thorough make over. The pool area did not have a pleasant odour and I did not like the many ants both on the side of the pool at the far end and also in the water. They were coming from a planted area that could easily be totally removed. The food was good both in the evening and breakfast but I think we will give this hotel a miss next trip. We were glad that we had only booked a one night stay.”
“Good location near the Santana houses. Proper breakfast.”
“The strong side of this hotel is its location, good place for an early start of trekking/sightseeing and in the nice village, close to the famous old triangular houses. Room was clean and decent.”
“The hotel is simple and a little dated, but well kept. It is close (but not walking distance) to several "levada" walks.”
“Service excellent, restaurant good, staff very helpful and friendly. Well placed for walking levadas, Plan to return next year.”
“indoor pool and friendly staff. and yes, most important feature in winter time - HEATING!!!!”
“Lovely, spotless suite. Nice town with a few shops, bars and cafes. A few kilometers from the rocky coast. Overall a superb stay in the hotel. Meals were terrific. Would recommend. We found a car hire place just around the corner too and this is also to be recommended and this enhanced our stay significantly.”
“Breakfast was excellent and plenty of choices. Wi Fi in room good. Adjoining pub/restaurant had excellent food. The coffee machine at breakfast was from a self service machine and although not very fast the various types of coffee was delicious.”
“Possibly only positive we could find was the bath in the room. Other than that...”
“Very friendly staff, good location, free parking in front of the hotel”
