Casa Pico dos Barcelos by LovelyStay

Posizione comoda vicino alla via rapida, a 5 minuti da un Pingo Doce e a 10 minuti da Funchal (ottima per evitare la confusione del centro e visitare tutta l'isola). Stanze ampie e casa con tutti i servizi, lavatrice inclusa. Si trova vicino al Mirador Pico dos Barcelos, molto carino.

Forte odore di umido / chiuso che purtroppo è rimasto durante tutta la settimana di permanenza, anche tenendo aperte le finestre. Non dipende dai gestori, ma purtroppo c'era una vicina che avviava tutti i giorni una registrazione al pianoforte dalla sera per tutta la notte, quasi inquietante. Inserendo l'indirizzo il navigatore ci ha portato in un punto sbagliato sempre in zona. Inserendo direttamente il nome del B&B google maps ti porta nel posto giusto. Per il resto la casa era accogliente e aveva tutto il necessario.

Dobrze wyposażony, duży, komfortowy apartament.

Jedynym minusem byli sąsiedzi, mieszkający poniżej. W nocy puszczali głośno muzykę dla dzieci. Mimo interwencji, muzyka była bardzo słyszalna, co przeszkadzało w spaniu.

Boas areas, cozinha bem equipada, casa muito limpinha.

A casa apresenta muita humidade nas paredes e a casa cheira a humidade (mofo).

Well equipped apartment close to the city centre.

We stayed there 5 nights, each nights we received unpleasant “entertaining” from 1 of the neighbours. He played music literally all night long every nights. This was not disturbing during the day but once everything was quiet in the room and we wanted to sleep you couldn’t because of the ongoing music. We had to buy earplugs otherwise no sleep. We had also problem with the hot water. I was there with my wife and 2 young kids and the equipment couldn’t supply hot water enough for all 4 of us. Therefore the last one usually didn’t have hot water. On the last day we got only cold water, probably the equipment gave up by that time. I reported all problems several time to the host however we didn’t receive ANY RESPONSE from them only the automatic generated e-mail to rate them. Surely won’t take this company anymore.

Mieszkanie tak jak na zdjęciach, duże i ładne. Byłyśmy w 5 dziewczyn i wszystko było super. Duży taras na którym wieczorem można posiedzieć i wypić lampkę wina z pięknym widokiem. Na duży plus przy większej grupie jest to że są dwie łazienki - jedna z toaletą i prysznicem, druga z sama toaleta. Nie ma prywatnego parkingu, ale na spokojnie można parkować wzdłuż chodnika.

Nocne lekko głośniejsze śmiechy nie są mile widziane (nawet w piątek wieczorem przed cisza nocną) - bardzo wrażliwi sąsiedzi.

The apartment is situated in an elevated location with a partial view of Funchal. Upon arrival, I noticed several issues that did not meet my expectations. Below are the details regarding the apartment's condition and my overall experience. Contrary to my expectations, the apartment has only one full bathroom, which has several light bulbs that were not working (1 at the ceiling, and the mirror). Second Bathroom: The second bathroom is NOT a full bath; it is merely a separate WC without a window. This was a huge disappointment to me as I was anticipating more comprehensive facilities. I informed management about the defective WC ventilation. Although the team assured me they would repair the fan, this was not addressed during my stay! Further, II was promised fresh towels due to my long stay, but this did not occur. The promised "mid-cleaning" service did not happen either, except for the replacement of the light bulb in the bathroom. For guests with high standards, the condo may fall short. For instance, the curtain rods are rusted due to the high humidity levels. It raises the question of why the owner does not replace them for just a few euros. It is evident, island-style, that the bedroom walls have been repeatedly painted over, which gives them a worn appearance. On a positive note, the beds were fantastic! However, unfortunately, from evening until 8 AM, there was a children's song playing on repeat ("Amsel, Drossel, Fink und Star") to help a small child sleep. I strongly advise the owner to inform the neighbors to lower the volume, as it was nearly impossible to sleep in one of the rooms without earplugs.
