We loved the concept and the design of the room was just awesome (we were in Route 66, bike-themed)! On the practical side: the room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed, plenty of sockets, spaces for things, even the small bathroom was perfectly organised! The common spaces (kitchen and terrace with hangers) and shared devices (i.e. hairdryers) too are fantastically organised, with reserved spaces in cupboard and fridges, and a great waste prevention/recycling/sharing system. Ruben personally greeted us and explain how the everything worked, gave us suggestions (i.e. on where to park for free) and always took the time to chat with us and other guests. He was also super-helpful when we left some of our stuff behind! Also the location is fantastic. Right in Machico centre, with many bars and restaurant around, basically directly to the Praia de S.Roque (stone beach, higher waves, but still manned) and 5 minutes walk to the Praia de Machico (sand beach, protected bay, manned).

Nice location in the old center of Funchal, near the bus stop to/from Funchal airport (5-10 min walk) and with plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Check in/out was very easy, access was controlled by a web app and was frictionless. The staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. The room I stayed in had an en suite bathroom and airconditioning which was great. The bed was comfortable and had curtains for privacy. There's also a cafe for food/drinks.

I had a wonderful stay! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and I met some great people during my visit. The kitchen was a highlight - it is fully equipped with everything you need to cook. The hostel is very calm, clean, and well-maintained. The location is also perfect, just a short 5-minute walk to the ocean.
