Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were very hot and uncomfortable to sleep in, and they looked dated and dreary from the outside. However, the hotel seemed to cope comfortably with three major events happening at the same time on a Saturday night.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms, while spacious, could use some updating in terms of furniture. However, the sea view was delightful, and the rooms were clean, tidy, and very comfortable. The service, especially at breakfast, was welcoming and friendly, although there were some hiccups with the dated room. The location was convenient for exploring the local area, with friendly and helpful staff. The dining experience offered good quality food but could improve considering the price paid. The facilities were adequate for a relaxing stay.
Our girls night in at the hotel was exceptional. The rooms were just perfect, offering a spacious feel with high ceilings and a stunning sea view. The breakfast was a nice touch, although we had a little issue with the windows in the room that wouldn't shut properly. Overall, a great experience that I would certainly repeat.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was fantastic, right on the seafront and just a short walk to the pier and town center. The rooms were not only comfortable but also had an unbeatable view of the sea. However, the dining experience was a bit limited during my stay. Despite a few minor inconveniences, this hotel offered great value for money overall.
