concerns
The property has a great location and is well organized. The owner made great recommendations for local restaurants. I was surprised that there was no AC in the bedroom and I expressed that. More importantly, the AC that was located in the living room didn't work properly. Every day, at least twice a day, and at night liquid pooled across the floor to the dining table and couch area. This wasn't something that could be ignored. In the middle of the night crossing to go to the bathroom I frequently stepped in it even if I had mopped it up before bed. I spent a considerable amount of time dealing with this situation. Turning off the AC was not an option as the temperatures were in excess of 90 every day and it wasn't an efficent AC unit. I messaged the owner about the situation and he dismissed it. In the last two days, I'm unhappy to report that I started to feel sick, lethargic, and dizzy especially after sleeping or napping. I'm a fit individual - I swim in the ocean every day in Portugal and while in Cassis as well. I did a four-hour paddle and a three-hour paddle while there. The health concern was disturbing and the owner was dismissive and did not take it seriously. I hope he does before anyone else stays there. There are a variety of well-documented illnesses and symptoms that are caused by poorly maintained AC and if the "drain pipe outside got clogged" as the owner said then it's entirely possible mold, bacteria, and the like has gathered in those pipes - certainly, the great amount of water spilling into the room was a nuisance, time-consuming for me while I was on vacation and in the middle of the night, and concerning. This situation should be resolved.
