Location was prime - we were Close & within walking distance to everything. As advertised the evenings were noisy from the bars below. but it did not bother us. Restaurant downstairs had excellent service. It was pretty warm & air conditioning would have been nice, but it did cool off over night.

Historic Funchal proper
Firstly, the location was fantastic, secondly the apartment was really nice and the manager did a great job communicating and making us comfortable. We understood that we could epect some evening noise ( the restaurants are just below the apartment) but to have the party go on til 230am was crazy. Had we been partiers maybe we would have joined inbut it sounded like the drum kit was at the end of the bed. Great location to eat out and 4 - 6 blocks to a large supermarket and Funchals historic vege/meat market. The pier is minutes away as is the cable car.ekit was at the end of and the manager

The apartment was spacious and clean. The kitchen was fully equipped for a week. The staff in the office were polite and helpful. The area is lively during the day and evening with the hubbub of people chatting and eating and drinking. However, there is a bar across the road which plays unacceptably loud drum and base music from late night until 2 am, which we found unbearable on Friday Saturday and Sunday. If we had known, we wouldnât have stayed here. Such a shame for the owners of the apartment who must be losing business with this antisocial music license in place.

Great location
The place is in a great location walking distance to lots of fun bars and restaurants. Keep that in mind because over the weekend the club next door was open until two in the morning. Luckily, we had earplugs so all was well.
