Residencial Melba

  Customer Review 

Excellent location within effortless walking distance of the city. Car parking outside the door. I have stayed at other hotels and villas in this region over the last 10 years, however this represents fantastic value. The hotel staff are, like most Madeirans, kind, helpful and laid-back.

Very basic B&&B. Breakfast was tasty with fresh-baked bread rolls etc.

Staff is very friendly, the owner offers info that you need. For example, they call rent-a-car company and also the company brings car to the hotel. So, you don&'t have to bother finding an office and walk around the city. Breakfasts are very good! Each and every room has its own balcony and in front of the hotel there is certainly a small swimming pool.

This is a really good value accommodation - the place is really silent at night, enabling a good night&'s sleep, in nice rooms which have warm water showers at any point inside the day or evening. The staff are incredibly warm and friendly and helpful - they encourage guests to use the hotel internet and to treat the place like home - no problem borrowing knives, requesting an earlier breakfast and so on - you could not ask for a more welcoming guest house. I also noticed that the breakfast was slagged off by someone else reviewing this guest house - properly perhaps they are used to five star, but for me, although there was squash rather than fruit juice, there was also fresh fruit every single day, plus meats, freshly baked bread, jams, cheese, yoghurt, breakfast cereals and often cake too. We filled up on enough breakfast to last until the evening and never felt unwelcome doing that and were always offered extra coffee. Having travelled around eighty countries and hundreds of guest houses, this would rate as one of the very best value overall that I have experienced - the guest house is ideally aimed at individuals who want a good night&'s sleep and to get up and go and discover the island inside the daytime - all night party goers would be finest elsewhere, but for the rest of us, a quiet, warm and friendly and welcoming location is just what most of us want.

Very affordable private double room with ensuite bathroom. Warm and friendly staff, excellent breakfast. Clean enough but had insects.

The employees was amazing and often willing to help with whatever problem. As its a household run business it makes you feel home right up on arrival. My room number 310 was very nice, sunny, tranquil and had even internet on the balcony. About 5 minutes walk from the guesthouse (next to the LIDO) you have a small stone beach, exactly where you can swim for free. Restaurants, shops, supermarkets, bus stops are at the same time in short walking distance. Thanks very much for this fantastic week!
