We chose this property for a layover between flights without knowing anything about the Azores. We were pleasantly surpised with the luxurious hotel right in the old town and close to the beach.We also had an excellent dinner in their restaurant (tune and swordfish) and the included breakfast was excellent.

The rooms were clean and large and the breakfast was plentiful and fresh. There is parking for extra 6E per day. The staff, especially some of the front desk give off an inapproachable vibe and getting information from them was frustrating. They seemed very unhappy. The area outside had a handful of homeless me who made us feel uncomfortable. They were there consistently during our entire visit and at times loud.
