      I liked its super friendly employees.

      Had a such wonderful stay for our third visit, everything was perfect. The room was good standard and reasonably large with jacuzzi bathroom. The bed was extremely comfy; and there was a bathtub. The location was marvellous and lovely as for us, next to the centre of Funchal, all the areas, the extremely friendly staff and the marina in Funchal. We found there plenty of restaurants to eat, like Koi Sushi that is only 5 minutes' walk away.
