OurMadeira - Taberna Apartments, Old Town

The place is clean and walkable.

Nice apartment. A bit old and can use a new shower and a softer mattress. Otherwise a great stay. I would recommend the plo

The property is very close to the water and there are LOTS of dining options nearby (in fact the first floor has a restaurant). It can get loud in the evening but we knew that would be the case and expected it. However the communication in terms of after arriving to the property was challenging. We waiting around the property before we saw anyone to ask about check in, and calls were not going through. It was Sunday morning and the office was closed but I had given my arrival information in advance so it would have been nice to get a little more clarification on the check in instructions. But once we had checked in and gotten our room, everything was smooth after that. Just be aware that there is no air conditioning and the fan that is in the room does not work very well.

Great place in Funchal Great location. Big apartment with everything you need. Nice people at the apartment and restaurant downstairs. The bed was a bit too hard.

Do Not Book Here! This is not a hotel and no front desk for check-in…very misleading that it’s on a hotel website. They require 72 hours to communicate or respond to messages. We arrived calling to try to check-in for hours from the airport. We sent messages for help to check-in and no one responded for days. We had to book another hotel upon arrival to Funchal so never even got to see our room that we prepaid for…Beware and Do not book here!

Other reviewers mentioned this, but this area is extremely noisy. However, it is very central so I suppose I cannot complain about this. I also found the beds to be very hard. We asked for extra toilet paper at reception and were told that we could not get any more. It was also very hot and we were only given one fan for two rooms
