We really enjoyed our stay in Estoril and found the city quite wonderful. I always like to give a review with the pros & cons of the listing. Below our comments:
Pros
> Central location, 2 minute walk to the beach, close to bars, restaurants, coffee shops and public transportation
> A 15 minute walk to Cascais
> Partial view of the ocean
> Clean studio with a fully equipped kitchen
Cons
> The noise across the apartment is unbearable. Loud music is played Thursday thru Friday from 9pm thru 5am. If you are looking for a place to relax, this is not it. We had to buy ear plugs and even then, you could her the music.
> There is no dryer as the listing shows; but there is a line to hang dry clothes
> The bathroom has a horrible smell coming out of the drain; you need to keep the door closed at all times since it is in front of the kitchen
> If you have a car, be prepared to pay an average of 1 Euro per hour. There is no free parking nearby
> The stairs to the loft are quite steep and there is no handrail; you have to get used to going up and down
> The hostess was not as accessible as we are used to; it took her awhile to reply to messages.
