"Pros: A lot of pros: - Very charming "old school" appartment, description on booking.com is correct, online check-in procedure necessary - super adorable team of Madeira sun travel (in charge of 200 locations on Madeira!), a clear 10! - separate, well-equipped kitchen (sinks can be clogged though, like in my case), vacuum cleaner and dish washer available - separate bedroom with big wardrobe - bedding is pretty hard, which I personally loved (but maybe not for everybody) - fast WiFi (choose the 5G network) - nice balcony for brief use in the morning (breakfast), despite in December - a great plus: the reserved parking lot in underground car park, easily accessible via elevator - large shopping center ("Continente") in 5 mins walking distance, small shop and café nearby I didn't use the TV Cons: Regrettably, one important caveat: - Main table in living room (see picture) was unusable because table plate (not the feet) extremely shaky/broken, hence had to rely on small table in the kitchen all the time. I informed the team, so this may perhaps be ok in the future. As long as this is not fixed, I cannot recommend this flat though! Also, the sofa in the living room (see picture) is very low, so - at least in my case (6.2 ft.) - uncomfortable to sit in for a tall person. The effect was that I did actually not use the living room at all. So I felt that was a waste in my case, which is the caveat. :-( Otherwise, I would surely have given a 9. On a side note, the usual "side" stuff: - Be aware that the appartment is located in a lively neighbourhood, and nearby a main road, so expect the usual barking dogs, motorcycles, and occasional loud argueing between people. Soundproof is ok, but it can be a problem when sleeping with an open window, or sitting on the balcony - I didn't detect any heating available, e.g., for the evening, but probably mostly not necessary when sunny in December. It was ok for me. - no coat hooks available in the appartment - bathroom could benefit from modernization. Also, water pressure (and hence temperature) is occasionally erratic, so beware of burning yourself unexpectedly! Perhaps a problem at building level though." ~Patrice

"Pros: The apartment was very nice, very spacious, equipped with everything you need, nice balcony and view. Good location. Fatima was very nice and positive person. We had parking for free." ~Tamar

"Pros: We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, all the possible necessary kitchen tools and facilities were very good, the bedrooms cosy, the bathroom very well functioning. The garage was excellent and easy to access. And Nelson, our host, was an extremely helpful and friendly person, he replied quickly and gave us a feeling of being invited as a part of the family. His extra welcome package of wine and snacks was very nice. Our family had an excellent stay in this apartment. Cons: We liked everything :)" ~Rita

"Pros: There is a parking lot, the flat is big with 2 separate bathrooms, washing room and everything necessary for the stay, a really nice terrace as well Cons: The hot water comes and goes, so sometimes you have to wait for minutes for it to come back, which is really not comfortable when taking a shower" ~Tsvetelina
