Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers beautiful rooms, friendly staff, and an amazing location close to the seafront. While the rooms are well-decorated and very clean with a powerful shower and extremely comfortable bed, the lack of air conditioning or windows that allow a breeze in could be inconvenient for some. Dining experience was exceptional, but some felt that the hotel could offer better value for money considering the room rates.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel; the room was clean and comfortable, the staff was fantastic, and the hotel's location was wonderful. However, the lack of proper ventilation in the room was a bit of a letdown, and the pricing seemed a bit higher than expected.
The hotel was perfectly located near the town center and just a minute from the beach and pier. The rooms, though basic, had everything we needed and were clean, including the bathroom. The service was attentive and accommodating, providing plates and cutlery for self-catering guests. The dining experience was exceptional, with really pleasant service and great cooking, especially the omelette. The location was fantastic, being very close to the seaside and the walking street. However, the towel heater was too close to the wall to sit comfortably. Overall, a great stay with some minor room inconvenience.
