Crowne Plaza Caparica Lisbon by IHG
I’ve stayed at this property before, but I was so disappointed this time. The bathroom around the tub was full of black mold in the property itself just seemed dirty to me. A dog was barking throughout the night in another room as well. I have no desire to ever stay there again.

Casa René, Lisbon's Hidden Gem
Well-stocked and VERY clean kitchen. Had basic cooking necessities available (salt/pepper, oil/vinegar) and even a bottle of wine (which was delicious) waiting in the fridge.
