The room is nice, but if youre travelling with someone be sure youre comfortable to go to the toilet and shower with them around in the same room because there isnt a door to seperate you. Or you can kick them outside for the time being. Here your travelling partner can hang out in a nice garden and possibly enjoy the occasional smell of dogshit just as i did one afternoon (until the cleaning lady cleaned it up). Currently there are 2 dogs (old one and a pup) and theyre friendly. Will treat you with some barking fada from time to time. And if theyre having a break, dont worry, one of the other neighborhood dogs will gladly take turn to keep the choir going.
Asked to get breakfast both mornings i stayed there and it was nice. Even got an egg on sunday. However, when i had to pay at the end of my stay, to my unpleasant surprise Anne told me that it wasnt 5 euros but 7. She showed me some texts with some other person, who apparently manages her listing and it showed 7,50. We settled for 7 as she said that at first so i thought ok whatever its fine. But I was sure I read it on the listing to be 5 euros, so i opened the listing on airbnb only to find no information whatsoever about breakfast. Confusing. While rereading the listing i also noticed a statement about ‘help on anything and tips for Sintra’. This confused me even more, as the day before when i was about to go to Sintra i asked her for any tips and she said she couldnt help me with that. So that wasnt true.
Location is about a 10 min drive to Sintra centre. Probably best to have a car if you intend on staying here but may be doable with taxi/uber. Walking there isnt really an option though, unless you enjoy long hikes.
