"We had a wonderful stay at this little hotel. The location is wonderful! The gas station is less than 5 minutes away, and a large grocery store (Continente) is about 10 minutes away. São Vicente is in the middle of the island, so you are right in the middle of all the hikes and viewpoints, and very close to Seixal Beach. Room #1 is the closest room to the kitchen, so it can sometimes be a little noisy when other guests are using the kitchen. Overall, though, it is very quiet and very clean. Always had hot water. We asked the owner for some extra towels for the beach, and he showed up with towels in less than an hour, which was greatly appreciated.
The only thing I would point out is that we stayed for 6 nights, and the floor in our room was not vacuumed during the week. We were hiking a lot, so sometimes we would come back with dirty shoes. I ended up cleaning the floor in the room myself. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back!"
