We really enjoyed our stay at Elsa's place in Parede! Elsa was a wonderful host, always availalbe and quick to respond and make sure we had everything we needed. Check-in and check-out was very easy and we had clear instructions for everything. The aparment is cute and cozy and equipped with everything you need. It's nice to sit by the window and enjoy the afternoon sunshine coming in with nice views of the Parede neighborhood. There is everything close by - the Parede train station is a short walk and there are many supermarkets, shops and restaurants nearby. We could also walk to the Carcavelos beach, so overall we recommend! : )
