Antonia is a very responsive and helpful host. He gave very helpful advise about getting to sintra from Lisbon airport and even arranged an Uber pick up. He also gave helpful tips about visiting Peña palace etc. The location is excellent. If you are a healthy adult you should have no problems walking both to Peña palace and into the historic district. The neighborhood feels wonderfully local (an elementary school close by!). The surrounding shops feel that way too. So if you enjoy this and don’t won’t to be suffocated by tourists this is a great place. There are grocery stores, a pharmacy and lots of places to eat close by. The apartment is a new renovation and everything felt very clean. Lovely to have outdoor seating. We would definitely recommend Lost in Sintra
