wonderful stay
sea view comfortable bed great shower tea coffee
i was upgraded to a sea view room, and it was beautiful. the bed was comfortable, and the shower was great too. i couldn't have asked for a better place to spend the night. the hotel also provided tea and coffee in the room.
i would have expected more than one towel in the bathroom, as there was a hairdryer in the room.

Satisfactory Stay
sea view beautiful view hot food good food helpful staff pleasant staff clothing storage limited storage creaky bed uncomfortable bed bedside lamp missing lamp
I had a room with a sea view. The view was beautiful and a real pleasure. The breakfast was superb with plenty of hot food. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful.
The bedroom lacked places to store clothing. I had to leave a lot in my bags. The bed creaked badly every time I moved. There was only one bedside lamp so the side away from the lamp was too dark.

The room had a sea view and it was really lovely. The staff at reception were helpful and friendly. Buses passed by frequently,.
There was no shelf in the bathroom for my things. I also found that the seagulls were quite noisy throughout the night. It was hard to sleep!
