Andreia is a great hostess. She was extremely communicative, and though we didn't actually meet her, you can tell from the cozy apartment and how it is decorated that she takes great care with hosting her guests and even provided a bottle of wine! The location of the apartment is excellent, and if you rent a car there are some very nearby parking options. We walked to downtown Sintra and local sites quite easily. Aside from being cold in the apartment in spite of the heater, we would definitely recommend.
