Good property in all aspects, however did not have any hot water for the entire stay we were there and did not do a great job at communicating or rectifying the situation.

A really nice place, well located. the atmosphere is not very social (no activities or social places to hang besides the cafe), but on the other hand most people traveling in Madeira are coming to crash for the night so it's not a surprise .

Really enjoyed my time here! The staff were really friendly, there was a relaxed and sociable atmosphere the whole time. Rooms were really clean and considerately put together. Kitchen is small but has everything you need. The cafe and back yard are relaxing and beautiful places to hang out (although the main common area was closed one morning for a party hosted by the cafe which meant guests were not allowed to use the space - perhaps conflicting priorities here). Other than this amazing time.

good points - delicious breakfast 90% cafe of staff friendly lovely view from room it was clean well presented great location cute hostel nice and quiet respectful residents. points to improve - I think as it is a hostel the reception should be 24 hours for security reasons there is no communal living area to hang out the kitchen is falling apart and there is not adequate storage for guests foods, no washing machine for communal use and there should be some accessible blankets for cold nights...

Super convenient location - walkable to everything in central Funchal. My private room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Met great people. Relative to other hostels: - layout not quite as conducive to social connection - the staff are at the Cafe next door. Has an amazing breakfast, but a 930 opening didn't line up with my early morning hike plans, so seldom saw staff. - fancy door codes (front door, room) - handy and added to sense of security.

Had a really great time, lovely staff and a cozy place with a good breakfast, delicious food, and great coffee. The only downside is that I expected a washing machine or something similar. Parking is only available in the garage and costs €5 per time. Compared to Jaca Hostel in Porto da Cruz, the guests there felt a bit more social to me, with more of a surf vibe. In Funchal I missed that typical hostel feeling a little, maybe because there isn’t really a living room or a spot where people...

The place is nice and the staff amazing! They helped me out a lot, even when they weren’t working. It is however a very quiet hostel so if you’re looking for a party house, this isn’t it but the WhatsApp chat makes it easy to find people to hang out with! ☺️

Great location and very clean. Kitchen is small but has all the essentials. Always had to enter code several times to get the front door open, maybe there’s a trick I didn’t know but it always worked eventually.

We had a great 5 night stay! Location was perfect, easy to walk around Funchal, pop to the beach, and easy tour pick ups. Loved the smaller hostel vibes. Guests and staff were welcoming. Kitchen facilities were clean and organized. Having the outdoor terrace was an added perk for simple suppers and connecting with other guests. Our room was the perfect size for the two of us travelling.

Amazing hostel in great location :) Always extremely clean and the rooms are lovely with privacy curtains around each bed. Every room is en suite. The kitchen is small but if you’re not planning on cooking then that’s fine! If you’re relying on the hostel to meet people then you really need to join the WhatsApp group chat, which the Jaca Hostel team will send you details for before arrival :) Would definitely visit again!

Das hostel liegt gut, Busse gut erreichbar, nah genug am der Altstadt und dich ruhige Lage, sauber, nettes Cafe dabei, Küche ausgestattet zum Kochen, zimmer in Ordnung, Sauberkeit ok. Aber ich würde dort trotzdem nicht mehr hingehen, da es aufgrund der alten Bausubstanz vor allem abends/ nachts und früh morgens extrem laut war, wenn im Schlafsaal z.b. geduscht wurde. Die Rohr hämmern und röhren, wenn das Wasser durchfließt und es wird fast rund um die uhr geduscht, also wirklich laut , st...

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt im Jaco Hostel in Funchal. Das Hostel ist sehr liebevoll gestaltet und die Mitarbeiter alle sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend! Im Café gibt es leckere Getränke und Speisen. Wir würden das Hostel auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!

Das Team dort ist super nett und freundlich. Falls man Tipps und Empfehlungen gebraucht, sind die mitarbeitenden super hilfsbereit 😊 Betten sind bequem. Frühstück auch super lecker und viel. Leider hat mir ein Gemeinschaftsraum gefehlt, da die Küche doch sehr klein ist und das Café abends nicht mehr geöffnet hat.

This was by far the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at!! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, the rooms, bathrooms and common areas were clean, there were locks on all the doors which could only be accessed by your individual code and the hostel was overall just really cute :) as a solo female traveler I felt very safe and loved the atmosphere!!
