A little shabby from our last stay in 2021. Chairs worn, chairs so low could not get out of unaided. If we had booked we would not have had to pay £12 a night parking. So will book direct next time.

We had a good stay here. Staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. Everything was very efficient. No queues for check-in or breakfast and dinner service very good. Our only criticism would be that the decor was tired and our room, although comfortable, wasn’t very modern. The hotel could do with a refurbishment. Sound proofing could also be better. We were on the first floor and could hear loud music from downstairs in the evening until past 10pm. Indoor pool was in hotel next door (chlorine in air was very strong and made my eyes sting even as a spectator), outdoor pool was pretty chilly to stay in for too long.

Staff very helpful and polite, food was lovely too. The building itself is run down, torn carpets on stairs, peeling wallpaper, scuffed paint. Very dated decor, smallest lift known to man kind!

Stayed with the family on 4th floor. Nice sea view room, radiator kept room warm. Bed seemed too soft and towels definitely needs to be cleaned and inspected before laying out for guests.

Fantastic location right on the beach. Sea view room worth the extra. Staff were very attentive, wonderfully cheerful & nothing was too much trouble. The room was well equipped, almost too much furniture, & the only criticism was that the mattress needs replacing & was too soft & lumpy. The bathroom was large & well equipped, the small fridge was very useful. Ventana restaurant was superb, delicious food & very good value.

Great 2 day break. Dinner and breakfast was great as was the staff. Only downside was the leisure facilities were in the next door hotel and as it was cold and wet not easy to get to.

This hotel has the potential to be great due to its location and views however it is in need of exterior (e.g painting) and interior attention to detail. Examples inside include tape on areas of carpet in the hallways, public sofas with split cushions and down at heal furniture on the balconies. The decor was somewhat outdated in parts. The room and bathroom were fine. Parking is difficult and is charged extra at £12 per day when booking through Expedia which we didn’t know in advance. We paid for a superior room with a balcony and sea view. The room itself was nice however there was considerable noise from the hall and neighbouring rooms making for a disrupted stay. The sea view was impressive, the balcony was very large but with tatty furniture and little privacy which was disappointing. We didn’t eat at the hotel choosing to walk down to the nearby beach restaurant which we enjoyed. We understand some of the facilities were in the next door hotel which was not explained to us on arrival. Overall a disappointment.
