This is less a hotel, and more bed and breakfast. I was disappointment by not being able to drop a bag before check-in and the limited breakfast options. But the room was very comfortable, warm, and clean. The standby light from the TV was bright, but this is my only complaint with the actual room.

Perfect location to stroll along the prom. Close to restaurants. Parking is on the street so a certain amount of luck to get parked close by.

Stayed in Superior room with sea view which was excellent. No issue with checking in via bar, staff friendly and good location with free on road parking nearby. Went out for breakfast as not keen on continental which was only option.
Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022

The rooms which are comfortable and well appointed are above a popular public house. My only criticism is that we were woken up on two occasions during the night by noisy residents which spoilt our stay.
