Ao Mercado is a nice, small hotel in the middle of Punta Delgada. It's easy walking to main parts of the small town, convenient free parking nearby and plenty of coffee shops and restaurants nearby. It was raining quite a bit when I was there, and activities are limited to avoid it, but the nearby museums were excellent to pass time. The owner, Maria, was very responsive to calls/texts. I had an issue with low flow in the shower in my room when I checked in and she quickly responded and switched my room. The rest of my stay was lovely. There is a common area/living room which was being used by a family with a small child. I didn't spend much time in the hotel to take advantage of it or the kitchen and onsite laundry, but other guests seemed to appreciate them and use it!

Highly pleased with our stay at Guest House Ao Mercado. Maria was amazing - so personable and accommodating! She went out of her way to make our experience was as pleasant as possible. The guest house has everything you could need and more, even freshly picked avocados from the garden. Super charming - made to feel like you're in your own home. Super clean and secure with a code to enter the facility and lock/key to room and bathroom. Walkable to all the hotspots in Ponta Delgada and parking was accessible whether it be street parking or parking lot 1-2 blocks down. Highly recommend! Will definitely be staying here again on my future trips to São Miguel.

The welcome we received by Maria was warm and informative. The home is lovely and we had a chance to interact with other guests. Location is excellent and directly across from the central market.

Maria is very friendly and helpful.

THE BEST!!! So clean.. Beautiful! The owner and staff very friendly helpful

This was a lovely guest house, providing a quiet retreat very close to the busy town center. Kitchen facility allowed for some meals to be taken "at home". The owner was beyond helpful and accommodating. A great travel experience.

We enjoyed every part of our 7 day stay with CC Guest House. A convenient location We liked our room , enjoyed cooking our breakfast and dinner in the kitchen and sitting at the lovely communal style table , shown in the CC Guest House photos. It all seemed to work. We appreciated doing our laundry as well! Our Guest Host Maria is warm, charismatic and delightful. Thank you Kindly Maria :))

The guesthouse is beautiful, clean and comfortable. Large bedroom and plenty of shared spaces. Location is also excellent and close to everything in town on foot. Maria was a wonderful host and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and enjoyable.

Check in was very straightforward, our host was responsive and helpful, everything was sparkling clean and the room was perfect for what we needed. The location is ideal, very close to the centre and easily walkable to restaurants.

Beautiful communal space and nice garden to sit out in. Everything was very clean. Well located opposite the market and 5 min walk to port.

Very beautiful and clean guesthouse. A warm welcome by the proprietary. A so cute garden. Very good localization in Ponta Delgada, close to restaurants and in the center.

Such a treat to stay here! Immaculately clean, beautifully appointed and it's in a great walkable location in the historic part of Ponta Delgada. Maria is a treasure, very warm and inviting. She can help you arrange tours throughout the islands by mountain or road bikes, van and hiking tours. And the tea shop Terra Verde was amazing - great recommendation!
