Porto Pousada Saco da Capela

The location was well situated, close to Vila and some nice restaurants.

This hotel was the worst. The first room we got, was not clean at all, bathroom was super dated, but ok the beds were fine. Then we discovered a RAT in the room. We asked for another room and got the room next door. This room was not clean either and had an even more dated bathroom, but we accepted it cause what else can you do? Then in the evening the toilet flooded: the whole bathroom was wet (with toilet water, buh) and we could not use it. Next morning we asked for another room again and they wanted to move us back to the previous room. In the end they moved us to a new room again. Still not clean (there was even mold on the ceiling and the towels were not clean either), it had no balcony which was what we booked, and the cold water tap in the shower did not work so we could only use super hot water to shower. The pool looked ok altough most chairs next to it were broken. Last but not least, the breakfast was not at all what you expect from the pictures. We came there around 10 and there was so little choice! Nothing was restocked, the juice tap did not work and there were friggin fruit flies all over the fruit! They did not cover or cool any of the food. Oh and you also had to go around the room to find your own plate, cutlery and glasses since the lady was not planning on making the table for you. Such bad service. The only nice thing about breakfast was the coffee... Next day there was a bit more choice but still all quite messy. The whole hotel is just former glory. It could have been so nice, because the location is well situated (close to Vila which is very nice) and you feel as you are in nature. But it's just awful. Would not recommend staying here if you want a nice island getaway.
