The pool itself is in need of many repairs, walkway around pool has several loose sidewalk panels, making them unstable. The marble or granite panels all around the pools top circumference need to be replaced as they are deteriorating due to the water flowing over them, and have sharp edges. Air conditioning unit in my room did not work properly, never produces cold air, could never hit the setpoint? Fan blows, but never got cool enough. Change out all toilets in the Hotel to NorthAmerican type toilets, that actually flush waste fully and completely...as the Euro toilets are pretty much useless! You need to flush several times just to get everything out? This is a problem across Portugal. No idea why in 2023 we have this ridiculous problem still? Shower water pressure is also not strong enough? At a hotel like this I expect better. Lastly, the wonderful gardens seem to be over run with grasses and weeds, and the actual plants are quite overgrown and wild looking? How is this even acceptable to the Management there? My personal yard, which is far larger than those gardens is in far better shape? Again, a very simple item, but it not up to par for a hotel like this? Why?
