Exceptionally welcoming and friendly, Matilde was a fantastic host during my 2 days in Sintra. Her flat is conveniently located just 2 km from the train station in a quiet, beautiful neighborhood. The building has turn-of-the-century character with a very authentic Portuguese feel. I enjoyed relaxing on the sunny balcony which has a view of the ocean on a clear day. The bedroom was spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed if you choose to cook. Matilde was very generous with her time and knowledge of Sintra. She took me to the local market, beautiful beaches, and showed me many places I would never have known about. I felt I was visiting a friend. This is a fantastic value, and I highly recommend choosing Matilde as your host!
