Spotlessly clean, modern, middle floor apartment right in the heart of old town of Funchal. Comfy bed with lots of spare bedding, pillows, towels etc. Helpful owner. Cleaner/keyholder lives in apartment above and speaks English. Well equipped with 'proper' cooker, fridge freezer, kettle and easy to operate and efficient washing machine. Easy walk to sea front and within easy walk of good selection of supermarkets, restaurants, shops, buses etc. Funchal appeared to be the best place on the island to stay but it's easy to travel about with a comprehensive bus service to all other parts of the island and opportunity for guided Levada walks, bus tours etc. No furniture on front balcony but we took chairs out from the kitchen and sat enjoying the late afternoon/early evening sun shining on the cable cars ascending to Monte. Hope to be back and would certainly recommend this apartment.
