Casa Das Arcadas

Está ubicada en una calle peatonal en el mismo centro de Ponta Delgada, el precio increíble, la habitación grande, con baño privado, tranquilo, nos gustó mucho

Good location, clean rooms. Only WiFi worked very weakly. In general I like it:)

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.

Unsatisfying Quality/Price ratio Not what we expected when we booked a hotel for 150€ per night: 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.

Very clean and great location. The bad thing was the stairs. If you have allot of luggage it can be difficult.

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
