Wonderful spacious apartment in ideal central location. Quick walk to the Auchan supermarket, Cascais train station and downtown area. Yes, there is a fair amount of construction surrounding the building, but the noise was barely noticeable when the patio doors are closed. We spent most of our time outside down by the beaches, so utilizing the porch during construction hours was never an issue for us. AC/heaters throughout, tons of closet storage and comfortable beds. Would definitely stay here again. Went with 4 adults and 2 kids (2&6 years old) and never felt cramped or uncomfortable. Host communication was prompt and easy. GEM staffed checked in from time to time to make sure everything was going well. Great hosts!
