We stayed in the ground level studio apartment. Cute space, pretty entrance, manicured courtyard, nice kitchen area. Wonderful restaurants within a short walk. Free parking lot across the street. We visited during an unusual heat spell. The AC tower was not suitable to keep the space comfortable. Could not open doors since they were ground level and did not have screens. Air circulation not adequate, felt stuffy.

Double check for air conditioning before booking!
The location was good for us, walkable to a wedding and other places to eat. If you don't like walking, you'll need Uber/Bolt to city center of Sintra and other major attractions. It's a 25 minute walk to city center and palace of pena is not walkable. Nice building, well kept. It was clean. But we searched specifically for air conditioning, which was our top criteria. We like to sleep at 69F (20.5C). When we arrived we found there was no air conditioning. It is the unforgivable sin. Very hard to sleep. Thankfully it was not hot the week we were there, but there were not enough windows to get good airflow, plus keeping windows open leads to a lot of street noise, especially on Saturday night with nearby bar.

Nuno is terrific and this place is a great choice if you want to stay in Sintra. It’s a kilometer hike to town, but free parking is accessible.
