We had an ok overall month long stay at Lourenco’s apartment in Cascais. The location is great with close access to the ocean, and the city of Cascais, and the view from the apartment is excellent.
The space was pretty good for our needs, but could use some updates. The furniture and linens are on their last leg - all the beds are damaged and seem just about to break, the couch cushions were pretty dirty and had some holes (they had a clean sheet covering the couch when we arrived which we left in place the entire stay) and many of the linens were stained and should be replaced.
The neighborhood and location is nice, but it is facing a fairly busy thoroughfare and during the day you will hear many cars and motorbikes passing. The sometimes constant dog barking all around is enough to drive one mad. Something should be said to neighbors, but I realize this is just a sad aspect of Portugal.
The owners also failed to get back to us after saying they would address some things.
