The hotel is a old family estate full of old charm and nice garden. The rooms were clean, comfortable and there is no air conditioner but it was cool enough at night. Breakfast was sufficient with good coffee and nice sorts of bread. The hotel is in need of some repair (old carpet) and there is musty smell in the hall way but for the price(55 euros/room) it's charming cozy hotel. I was happy to find the hotel that allowed small dog and the owner Luis was very nice and helpful with area information. If you're looking for fancy or luxury hotel, this is not for you. Good location for visit to Sintra and Cascais (5 min off the highway to Sintra, and 15min to Sintra).
