The apartment is new and sparkling clean. All appliances are modern and work perfectly including air conditioning. The shower is great.
30 minute walk to downtown. Bus stop right across the street that runs often and gets you there in 10. Little cafe/restaurant across the street as well - very good inexpensive food.
Marce (Marcelinda) is a gem. Bright, enthusiastic, helpful. When she said call her for anything she meant it. She got us a very difficult restaurant reservation and booked us a private car for a great tour of Sintra palaces, coast, Cascais and Estoril. Highly recommend Marce.
