Christiane's apartment in Sintra was wonderful. Two good sized bedrooms with firm beds, always a plus for us. One had a skylight so you could look at the stars going to sleep. There is a cozy living room and a dining room table. The view out the window is directly on the Sintra palace. The location couldn't have been better. We could step out the door to a small grocery or bakeries and restaurants. And even thought it was in the middle of everything, it was not noisy at all. We really enjoyed staying there and highly recommend it.
