If you want to visit the most important places at Sintra this is the place. Also If you come with a family and children's is great, the house is near an Indian restaurant that has good food. You can walk to every spot and leave the car for free outside the place.
Communication with Joana is the best and you have free maps at home.
For sure we recommend Joana as a host and her place is amazing.
