Great hotel right on the sea front

Great hotel right on the sea front. We stayed for two nights and the room was comfortable and quiet. The overall decoration was simple and furniture quite basic, but everything was clean, tidy and worked well. The staff were friendly and made us most welcome. I would stay here again.

The hotel is in a great location right on the sea front with east access to the beach and close to restaurants, the arcade and shops to pick up snacks and essentials. Although parking is limited when the hotel is busy, we were able to get a space out front and there are plenty of alternatives across the road and round the corner. Check in and out was easy and the room was comfortable and clean. The highlight for us was the Italian restaurant that we were recommended up the street. We didn’t have any issues during our stay so didn’t need to contact staff, but those we did see were friendly and approachable.

Liked: Cleanliness
Very basic hotel, perhaps a little depressing. Room was very small and looked out over back buildings. Room was clean enough but it was a maze to find it and very dark and claustrophobic. I did wonder if there was a fire. Whether wed be able to get out.
