First of all, the location could not possibly have been better. We were within walking distance of all the major attractions around Sintra, plus restaurants and the train line to Lisbon. The room: exactly as pictured, all the necessities, warm water with good water pressure, a fridge, an electric stovetop, and access to a beautifully tended garden. There was a lovely view out the windows and a nice breeze. The bed was comfy and wifi was fast. Izumi and Francis were very gracious hosts who answered any questions we had and made us feel very comfortable and at home. This was perfect for a couple. If we ever return to Portugal, we would love to stay here again! This definitely beats any hotel!
