The apartment across from the National Palace in Sintra was a perfect location. Athough parking was not included, we did not have any problem finding a parking spot even though it was high season. Christiane was very enjoyable to work with, and very responsive.

The apartment itself is charming: in the attic portion of an old Sintra building, it is decorated with care and has everything you need to cook and relax. Being an old building, it has the drawbacks you would expect: old building smells, and some plumbing issues, but these were very minor compared to the excellence of location, the pleasing decor, and the sense that you were staying at a friend's carefully-cared-for apartment. The price is excellent for where you are, and we could walk to everything, including the train station to catch a ride into Lisbon.

All in all, highly recommended for a vacation in Sintra!
