The good part : close to the city center, a nice view, the people are welcoming The bad part : the beds are old, not comfortable, the bathroom smells (but are clean)... Please renovate your rooms ! more

The rooms are not too big and not too small, the breakfast is very good (I had several servings of a wonderful chocolate cake) and there's also a nice pool. Five minutes on foot from the town centre, they also provide a bus service from the port/airport to the hotel, free of charge, so call them when you arrive. I... more

the hotel is set just 800 metres from the old port, nice location but the stuff is really rude ,the service is really slow and the thing that topped everything was the room which can be described only as a hole and nothing more.Horrible bathroom and shower with a cockroach in the shower as a welcome gift. DO NOT EVER... more

This is a classic of hotel owners making a whole lot of money, where they should actually be putting money. The hotel is a wreck and needs desperately a renovation. Beds are broken, furniture are old with no style whatsoever. If it rains during your stay you will realize that an umbrella is needed even in bed, since the ceiling... more

Looking at what other people wrote, opinions seem mixed, with negative reviews dominating. I agree with that. We booked our room there about a month ahead of time at the end of the high season and stayed there in mid-sept. Based on their website, it looks lovely, but in reality it is not. Hotels.com charged us $160 for a double,... more

Luckily one of the other drivers was kind enough to call the hotel. When we got to the hotel it was over booked. The woman had a... more

I really liked Madalena. After the initial difficulty of finding it I really had a wonderful experience. The rooms are pretty basic, mine with a mini bar that didn't work, but they stay cool when it gets hot and most have wonderful views. Bathroom facilities basic again but clean and functional, and staff are lovely. The breakfast could be improved... more

I loved this place! The views were stunning, and the staff was most hospitable. It is a trip uphill if you walk from town, but it is not that far and I'm old and gimpy. The rooms are simple, but are very cozy as the temperature rises the room stays cool. Bath and shower were small but functional and clean.... more

Pluses: + great views from most rooms so make sure you ask for a room with a view. Some rooms do not have a view at all but others are fantastic (you can take a nap looking at sunset colors through your bedroom window) + good location (transportation on the island is a problem especially at night where it is... more
