The apartment is in a lovely traditional street in the Baixa area with lovely views towards the church above, beautiful at night as lit up. The flat was spotless and Tania had kindly left water and a bottle of wine. The flat also felt cool, which was a bonus as it was very hot for October!
Seemed to be an area that attracted younger people in the bars and restaurants near by but not a problem and the flat was very quiet.
The location was good as it was near the start of the famous tram route 28 (but go very early or evening time if want to get on as queues were long), near the train station to Sintra and the steps next to the flat were on the route up to the Castelo de Sao Jorge. Didnt take us long to orienteer ourselves and we found we could walk to most places.
Tania was a lovely host, always in communication with us. She speaks excellent english. She kindly booked a taxi back to airport, but the metro stop is a 5 minute walk down the hill.
