This is an older hotel with nice tile walls up the staircase and really quiet rooms. For me, the size of the room and bathroom were just right. The wifi worked well and I really got some much-needed sleep over my 5-day stay. Every morning, I would go down to have included breakfast and the proprietor would quickly present a huge, flaky, buttery croissant, a basket of rolls with jam and butter, and a whole pot each of coffee and steamed milk. Juice and regular milk were also available. The proprietors were really pleasant and genuinely friendly. It is located a block from the clock tower at Praia da Claridade. It was a great, old-style European hotel at an amazing price!
