Gabriel's apartment was clean, sleek and perfectly situated. It's very close to the main square and bus stops. The local (sparse) market was just around the corner. Gabriel made sure we had everything we needed, and made himself available. My only complaint was the apartment was a bit too cold. He brought extra blankets so we were perfectly warm at night, and we spent the majority of our time out of the apartment and exploring the town so it wasn't a huge problem for us. I wholeheartedly recommend his place if you visiting Sintra in the warmer half of the year.
