Perfect location for connecting to Sintra train and exploring the city, and the host provided great restaurant suggestions. The apartment is in "new" condition - very chic and comfortable. We were aware of the third floor location and noise mentioned, which we thought was street noise. It's actual train noise from the metro in the bedroom area between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. - a little rumbling noise and motion. Not a problem for us, but may be for some. Great place overall - would stay again!
