We really enjoyed our stay! As others have said, the apartment is an excellent location. It is very close to the train station but you can hardly hear the trains! We used Sintra as our base for visiting Lisbon. We were easily able to travel in and out of Lisbon by a short train ride. We preferred this as Sintra is a lovely town and we were able to reach the Sintra attractions much earlier than those traveling in from Lisbon! The apartment is quaint and comfortable and has a lot of character. We highly recommend this apartment!
