Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We knowingly booked a small room. The room itself was clean and decent enough. It was an extremely hot day so could have done with A/C or at least a better fan than that provided. The bathroom was too tiny to be practical. There was no shelf in the tiny shower and there was not enough room to bend down and pick shower gel off the floor. Overall the price was very reasonable so we were not expecting the world. Staff were friendly, the room was clean, and the bed was comfortable.

The swimming pool was a welcome addition as the sea was too cold and choppy to swim in. The towel rail was heated, there was a heater and TV and kettle in the room. A shower and toilet en suite. All for £50 a night. Bargain

Alison

Liked: Staff & service
Our room was small but clean and comfortable, however the en-suite bathroom was very small and in need of redecoration (and possibly redesigning). Overall the hotel looks okay but a bit tired and in need of a refresh. On the plus side the staff we spoke to were friendly and helpful and the hotel is in an excellent situation being opposite the beach and only a few minutes walk from the town centre. We didn’t use the bar or indoor pool so can’t comment on those. We could park outside the hotel which was great, and could purchase a ticket for parking which was good value.

Lovely sea-view room - nice and quiet despite being close to the main road. BIG comfortable bed. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A great treat to have a (small) heated swimming pool on site Parking is available on sea front with vouchers - very cheap! Good options to eat in the Hotel as well as some nice restaurants nearby.

As always the rooms are impeccably clean and tidy. The windows could do with some refurbishment as they are a bit drafty in places, apart from that no issues. Will stay again.

Lovely big room, staff all very friendly and helpful but the hotel needs a little bit of updating, nothing major, it just feels a little bit dated in terms of things like the bathroom and furniture. Room was extremely spacious and comfy though and we had a great night’s sleep and it had everything we needed for the night.
