Checkin was pleasant and efficient. Room located on 3rd floor and was extremely small and compact. Tiny bathroom and water pressure not that good and on 2 occasions water was only lukewarm. Bed extremely comfortable with good pillows and window that could be opened which was nice. Rained every day but still nice to have fresh air. Breakfast was adequate, small space and often crowded but excellent staff who were very helpful. Lovely restaurant around the corner, Estrela (I think is the name). Went there twice, great food, exceptional staff and you will find the Wine Hunters Van outside. Did fo the Japanese across street one night, give that one a miss. Indian up around the corner which was good and walk up the stairs out the back and there is a great Cuban Bar. Weather was atrocious nearly every day, however our visit to Sintra the weather gods were on our side. Overall hotel is a little quirky, probably not in best place as we had to Uber or train but the neighbourhood is great.
