Rita and Helder were great hosts. We did not get a chance to meet Rita, although she was pleasant and quick to respond via message. Helder helped us with our luggage and gave us some tips on local restaurants and places to see. The location was great-very close to the train station for when we took a day trip to Sintra and pretty short walk to the castle and many other popular tourists spots. The space was good for two people. The only thing that detracted from our overall positive experience was the noise of the nightly garbage collection. We are pretty heavy sleepers, but the sound of hundreds of empty bottles breaking and being collected ever night was not ideal. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.
