Alexandra's apartment was a great space for my wife and I to enjoy the Sintra experience: It was a cute space with two bedrooms and a loft, kitchen and bath. We used the second bedroom as a space for our suitcases and clothes as there are no closets in the bedrooms. There is a small patio outside the master bedroom, which also has area for drying your laundry. We were a 5 -6 minute walk from the train station, historical district and a few restaurants. Alexandra recommend a couple good ones. We found a great little bar, just across the main street, with 1/2 off drinks and Tapas from 5-7 each day. The area is quiet at night which made for good sleeping. It took us a while to find safe, free parking in the area, but with a bit of searching, we ended finding a free spot just up the street. We would stay at Alexandra's again if we return to Sintra.
