I've stayed in both "residencials" (2nd class hotels) and "casa de hospitalidades" (I think that's the spelling). In the residencials, I've had my own bath. In the casa de hospitalidades, I shared a bathroom. I also rented an apartment or condo for the week with Shirley Allegre. The residencials and casa de hospitalidades are both pretty simple...you get a bed and a shower. No fancy luxury decor. No swimming pool or spa. But for those who do consider the hotel as part of their vacation and want a pool or spa or other amenities of the more upscale hotels, they do have them there. Last time I was in Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel island (and that must be 8 or so years ago), they had just opened and Comfort Inn. I don't think that's a super luxury hotel, but it looked really nice.
The beds are short. I think Sam's hubby had a hard time being over 6 feet tall if I remember right. She'll comment on that if I'm remembering the right person. (Yes, Sam on this list is a female).
