Rita’s apartment is perfect for a couple wanting a short stay in Sintra. It is exceptionally clean and well-equipped. Rita is an amazing host - she communicated at all times, showed us the best place to park and gave us great tips for places to visit and where to eat. We would highly recommend the family-run Portuguese restaurant that she suggested - Apeadeiro - fantastic atmosphere, amazing food and very reasonable. Sintra is an incredibly touristy place so make the most of the early mornings before the coach load of tourists arrive. The apartment is situated on THE main road into Sintra which has now become a one way road meaning that the many cars and coaches don’t slow down for on-coming traffic. It was very noisy during the day so don’t expect to be able to have the doors open comfortably - however it quietens down at night. The bed is very comfortable and the bed linen is beautifully ironed - the mezzanine level, where the bed is, may be challenging for some, as you have to bend to get into bed. The best thing about Rita’s place is that you can walk to all the attractions that Sintra has to offer - and there are many!
