This apartment is ground floor, street front unit, in a perfect location next to the train station and tourist office, around the corner from recommended restaurants, away from the noisy shopping area. It is a great starting point to explore Sintra sites on your own or through various tour companies. It was quiet at night and I felt safe coming and going at all hours. It is not fancy, but it has everything you might need. It was very spacious for one, more space than I needed, and should suit 2 persons very well.
