Super accommodating hosts. When my friend could not sleep without AC, they brought us extra fans and set us up for a few nights in a cottage location elsewhere. Place was spotlessly clean, cleaned daily, soundproof windows, excellent buffet breakfast, lovely bathroom and shower with shampoo/ conditioner, soap, etc. Excellent location. There were also walking sticks which we used for our hiking, was a nice touch! Also you can tell the family who run this genuinely care - they really went above and beyond.

The street is loud at night if you have the windows open (but silent if you close them as they are totally sound proof). Also almost no places in Funchal have AC (apart from hotels) so just make sure a ceiling fan is fine for you. It was perfect for me anyway.

Excellent breakfast! Gadi is fantastic in every way! We chose to come because of vegan/organic etc. great fruit, muesli, yoghurt.

Coffee not so great. Would have been nice if there had been Rooibos tea. Kitchen equipment inadequate for much cooking. We would have preferred to cook more of our own meals. We don’t eat much fish, and virtually no meat! We ate no meat during our stay. So restaurants weren’t offering what we would have preferred to eat: cooking facilities not great.

The rooftop terrace is the absolute highlight of this property. The location is also a plus point, you can easily access to Funchal old town and many bars and restaurants are walking distance. Tasty breakfast with a lot of choices and many homemade items.

The studio was a bit dark and, with being 2 couples, the living room was basically converted into another bedroom - this was not very clear from the description. The breakfast room is also underground so there's no natural light coming in.

Nice and spacious studio, with a lot of light all day long. On top of that there's a beautiful terrace to admire the mountains and the city of Funchal. Location-wise it's perfect because it's from walking-distance to the city center, all while being in a rather quiet area. Last word to say that the breakfast proposed a vast array of options, with a lot of local products.

Not all the windows had big/thick enough curtains to cover the light in the morning so it was hard to sleep after the sun had come out.

The space of the flat, the helpful staff, the proximity to the centre, the services offered such as parking and daily cleaning, the common spaces and how quiet they were, the king size bed, and the kitchen with a lot of ustensils.

2 bars down the road a bit noisy during the night but I was personally not bothered with ear plugs. The kitchen is also lacking cooking oils and salt which we had to buy, but that's understandable.

We had such a pleasant stay in ASPA. Best parts: The warm welcome from Luisa. Sunrise on the rooftop terrace. The wonderful location near the Christmas markets, cafes and restaurants of Funchal. Breakfast was also a treat (would highly recommend the granola). Information before arrival was clear and concise

Room is spacious and bed is comfortable. Studio has a small kitchen, and our assigned room had a very small bathroom with a window for ventilation. The hotel has 2 terraces on different levels, the top one with a very nice view of the city and the mountain behind Funchal. The location is very central and there are many restaurants and cafés within 5-10 minutes walking distance.

Summer is very warm and humid in Madeira and the hotel has no air conditioning. A ceiling fan helped make the very warm evenings more pleasant but the humidity cannot be mitigated. The hotel has no lift and LOTS of stairs, particularly the 2 flights down to the breakfast room. The breakfast itself is basic. The parking is not for the faint of heart ... with steep ramps, awkward angles (many many places to scrape your car very nicely). It's very dirty and a haven for cockroaches but is off the street and secure.

The staff was super friendly and supportive as the location is really good. We had the chance to use the free parking and it was a great solution.

Our bedroom door was just next to the common terrace and in the evening we had to ask other guests to be quiet so we could sleep - that was a bit uncomfortable. Perhaps the room is more suited for people who like to party and stay up late (past 23h).

A warm welcome to these friendly, family-run apartments made it feel more like a pension. Close to restaurants and the heart of the old town of Funchal, its location was perfect. Breakfast was excellent; car parking (by arrangement) a bonus. I'd have preferred a second-floor room since the apartments are close to the street, but it didn't change our impression of the place.

Great location, everything in walking distance in Funchal. Terrace was lovely, just as pictured, with great views. Room cleaning was very thorough. Kitchenette was well equipped with induction stove top. Bed was huge.

My room was off the terrace, which was a bonus, but other guests using the terrace late at night were really noisy. I maybe just got unlucky with that though.
