This modern place is so nice if you are looking for an authentic old Portugal experience! Especially if you stay more than 1 night. Fado was just a few doors away and you get to really feel the activity. Just like the description there is a river view. One morning we woke up to see a huge cruise ship. The stairs to the apartment are steep, narrow and a little scary. Another con is how VERY frustrating to get the key. The hosts asked more than once when we wanted to get there. So we felt some pressure to leave beautiful Sintra before we wanted to. Then when we got to Lisbon the hosts finally told us they weren’t available from 4-7 pm. So we had to wait on them when we could have stayed in Sintra. We would have much preferred they told us that time from the beginning.
