Needing a place I could bring a furry friend, close to Lisbon but not Lisbon proper, and at a reasonable price, I settled on Cristina's place. Communication between us was excellent throughout. Check-in simple. The house was clean and cosy, fresh linens, kitchen with a few amenities such as coffee and tea, fresh towels, heaters (it was cold and rainy), wifi, comfortable living area and a good bed with a comforter. In each iteration of my exchanges with Cristina she responded with good cheer and with the pertinent information I sought. The location is somewhat industrial, not noisy, but unattractive. Somewhat removed from major freeways, there is always considerable driving through winding roads to get most places. Having major grocery store (Continente) some 4 km away is a plus. I wouldn't call this Sintra proper, not Sintra that visitors seek for its historical sights. That is some 13 km away, if I'm not mistaken. Overall, though, a pleasant experience. Thank you.
