This place was perfect for us. It was spacious on the second floor with fuse a cute little street surprisingly very quiet. The entire complex was two floors in total and we were one room of three on the second. The breakfast that came with our rental was so cute and perfect for us. It came with yogurt, croissant, bread, cold, cut, cheese, jam, options for coffee or chocolate milk or tea. The only thing that was missing was something with protein, which was fine because we bought eggs locally and boiled them in the shared kitchen. There is a pretty large sitting area for people to sit and have meals together communal style. It was pretty much quiet when we were there and occasionally saw three people. We did not have an ocean view – but we weren’t expecting it either. Location was central and walkable to many places, including some great restaurants and the local market and a couple of parking lots within minutes of the Casa.

Comfortable room, very convenient location. However, even though I pointed out at check in that the bedroom curtain was not working, the person on the other side of a WhatsApp number, albeit quick to respond, was not able to have it repaired for the 3 nights I stayed there. Lesson learnt: no matter how good the property or the room may look, it’s not worth it to pay hotel rates when hotel services are not available. A similar issue would have been dealt with more easily had it happened in a hotel with personnel present at the premises.

Good price for this location, room clean with basic kitchens utensils. No parking place, car unable to drive into the street, fortunately a few minute walk there are some parking lots available for free. Check-in is a problem, no onsite staff, said given front door passcode through WhatsApp, but i don't use WhatsApp at all. No where to contact, until i find their ad phone number for ocean travel. The guests after me had the same problem. If they can solve the check in problem will be much better feeling for guests. If they can tell the guests the parking spots normally available, some times just need wait a few minutes.

Ponta Delgada 5 night stay

This is a great apartment. It is small but very clean. It has a shared kitchen on the 2nd floor right above the Subway restaurant. It is close to the Marina and the busy downtown. Many tours available nearby. Great 5 days here.

The hotel is right in the city center, just one street from the sea, yet quite. The room was very spacious and comfy, the service perfect and we just loved the picnic basket breakfasts.

Fantastic location,location,location on walking street with all kinds of shops, stores, coffee shops, restaurants and bars, walk to almost everything we walked an average of 8000 steps per day (74 and 77 years old). The only negative was the bathroom with slippery shower floor and sometimes bad smell. We stayed for 10 nights and will definitely go back. Thank you so much. Rita and Hans

Beautiful stylish room in the center of town!

Beautiful updated building and updated room. Right in the center of town for you to explore and enjoy the beautiy of the city of Ponta Delgada. Kitchen available for you to use and rooms are comfortable and very stylish which was really unexpected! Only downside is there is no parking available if you rent a car but there is a parking garage nearby and has street parking if you can figure that out!

We arrived very early in the morning and were granted access to the lounge area so that we could store our luggage until check in time. Additionally, since the prior guests left early, we were allowed to check in earlier than expected. This was wonderful for our tired bodies! I had read prior reviews concerning termites, but, thankfully there were no insects of any kind in the facility during our 3day stay. The location is very convenient to the old town of Ponta Delgada. If you need a taxi, there is a taxi stand half a block away. The bed was comfortable. The linens were clean but worn. There is an AC unit for temperature control. The room was spartan in keeping with the low nightly tariff, but the lounge area has kitchen facilities, dishes, cookware, communal refrigerator, a water dispenser and ample seating There is a bar across the street that is noisy on weekends. We were thankful to have found this place on short notice as our previous host canceled three days before our arrival. Communication with this facility host was excellent. The staff were very accommodating.

We arrived at the property after flying from Las Vegas to Boston and from Boston to St Michael Azores. It was about 9:00 pm when we arrivedat the property. They contacted us with a list of instructions and a code to open the door. As we entered, there was a very big staircase and nothing else. We are senior citizens with very heavy luggage. We, somehow managed to carry the luggage up the stairs. There was no one upstairs to tell us our room number or give us a key. The instructions said to call when we arrive. There was no wifi, and no phones that we could see, so calling was impossible. We had no choice but to leave. Most of the hotels were booked. We drove around till 1:00 am an we finally found a hotel that had a vacancy. This was the worst trip ever.

Unsatisfying Quality/Price ratio

Not what we expected for the price we paid: To start with the positive things, the floors and rooms look nice because they are modernly furnished and it’s a cool old building. Checkin and contact with the staff also worked smoothly. Unfortunately we did not really feel comfortable due to overall cleanliness (our breakfast dishes were improperly cleaned two days in a row with food remains on it, the toilet brush was completely dirty and the towels and bed sheets had stains). We also had a problem with the shower not getting hot the first two days, to which the staff reacted promptly after we mentioned it. Our room also had a quite unpleasant moldy smell and some wet/moldy parts in the walls, which I understand is difficult to control in a humid climate and old building, but still does not contribute to general comfort. The breakfast basket is a nice idea, but lacks variation after a few days and can’t be compared with an actual hotel breakfast. Overall we felt the price is not justified for the place, which feels like an okay hostel.
