Hosts are friendly and have kindly allowed us to check in the early evening
It’s a basic and minimally equipped (and hence the lower rating in value) flat but it’s clean and bright and airy and in a safe residential neighbourhood. If you open the window there’ll be traffic noise throughout the day and night but I think that is a very common issue in Portugal
It’s a flat suitable for a family with children - green area with a small playground 2 mins away and 10, 15 mins walk to the beach, 15 mins walk to the train station to Lisbon / Cascais
Free parking downstairs; a small lift so you don’t have to carry all your luggage up the stairs
