Hot tub not hot enough. Drilling for a time one day. No dish cloth for washing dishes. Our unit did not have a washing machine like my daughters. Need to bring clothes pegs for drying clothes on rack outside. Let people know to bring a bathing cap

Hotel Indigo Albufeira by IHG
The hotel staff are friendly, cheerful and helpful. The rooms are clean and well equipped. Breakfast was very good with a large choice to suit all tastes. The nearby nightlife goes on well into the early hours and can be very disturbing if you don’t want to be part of it!
