LEGASEA - Cascais Guesthouse

The location was perfect! Everything was within walking distance. The staff was exceptional! Breakfast was delicious and everyone was friendly, kind, and helpful! I can‘t wait to come back!

I loved everything!

Our room was very spacious, light & airy. The bed was very comfortable. Supplied with tea/coffee/water. There was access to a coffee machine in the communal lounge. The breakfast was good and plentiful.

The shower room was spacious but the door didn’t fit very well.

Very nice place, amazing restaurant inhouse and the most excellent breakfast. Quiet and nice even though placed in city center.

The breakfast was excellent and catered very well to gluten free and vegetarian diets and was tasty and very ample. The staff who cooked and served breakfast were extremely kind and friendly. The location: well, it's good if you want to be right in the centre of things and over a pizza restaurant. The cost was good compared to other lodgings in Cascais but this is because there is no host support and it's more like a hostel than a hotel. If you have a tighter budget and you either like partying all night yourself and/or have the world's best earplugs, then this could be the place for you.

We thought we were getting a small boutique hotel but this wasn't it. The location was extremely loud, we hadn't realised it would be located over a restaurant and adjacent to other restaurants with booming music until midnight - it was so loud we couldn't sleep. Also it overlooked one of the town's main recycling points so at daybreak (or before?) we awoke to the sound of smashing glass as townspeople emptied their bottles into the bin. The walls and ceilings were thin and not soundproofed and with large gaps under the doors, so we heard every noise of neighbouring guests including the extremely loud beeping when they keyed in their codes to open their doors late at night. The listing did not intimate that there is no reception for the guesthouse (ie no host on site), and furthermore, the hosts were not organised about welcoming us to Cascais despite our frequent and unanswered messages informing them of our arrival time. This was stressful for us. So it was only when we arrived and called the phone number posted on the wall that we received an entry code for the bedroom door. The mattress was fine but the pillows were so hard and lumpy as to be unusable. A water bottle was provided in the room but it was grimy so we ended up buying our own.
