The house is beautiful and the hosts seemed nice but it should definitely be noted that the air quality is very poor. One of us has asthma and had an attack from the overwhelming smell of stale smoke and chemicals, as well as a strong dog odor. This listing is about 20 minutes from Sintra, which we we're not aware of. Unfortunately one of us had a sensitivity, and had to sleep in the car, but if you don't mind those smells, it's a nice and affordable place.
