The room was clean, bed linen fresh and the bed comfortable. The hotel and room looked a little tired with its décor and could do with a refresh. Only stayed a single night at a very good rate and would do so again.

It’s a proper old fashioned seaside hotel. Plenty of places to sit and chat and eat and drink. Friendly staff. The hotel is quite old so do not have plugs by the bed so if you need that for charging phones (or cpap machines) then bring an extension cord 😊 I was a solo traveller with a dog and people could not have been nicer. I can’t wait to return 👏
