This was a wonderful stay, the staff are helpful and kind. The breakfast was delicious and included. The area is very walkable. I even walked to the Beach and it was only about 30 minutes. Truely wonderful and highly recommend. Ask for a different room than 311 if you want a view though.

Good night's sleep.

The room was comfortable and clean. Plenty of hot water! With a choice of bath or shower. The reeption staff were very welcoming and courteous. I had an evening meal and was impressed that there was a choice of two vegan options. Breakfast was buffet style andample, with fresh fruit a bonus. I had one of the best night's sleep I've had for a while. Thank you

Single traveller well provided for.

Solo traveller who had asked for a quiet room. On arrival the welcoming staff told me they had been able to oblige. The single room had everything that one would get in a twin or double room which was great as some hotels provide single rooms with poor facilities. The room was spotless, the breakfast and service excellent. Great location too.
