Loved my three night stay. Comfortable, clean, central position near the pier and Lanes. Staff brilliant. Always choose to stay here. My only complaints this time were the wait in the long queue for check-in this time and that my fridge wasn’t cold (which I didn’t realise till the last day and forgot to mention).

The hotel is in great location not far from the beach, shops and restaurants. The gym and swimming pool are not great, a lot smaller than pictured you have to walk through gym to get to pool, poor changing facilities. Some of the hotel is ok the main foyer is modern

It was a good stay. The only issue I had was bathroom was not having latches and the bare minimum closure of the door was also not happening due to loose lock of the bathroom. I took family room with 2 kids and it was undue pressure for me to use the bathroom which can open on slightest force ( even when someone close the door of next room). Shared my concern at reception but appeared they were not having option and asked me to visit next day. I somehow managed but privacy gets hit with this. Otherwise property was good. Expedia executive was also not helpful and didn't find him useful, he was in a hurry ( I believe he didn't know what to do - appears poorly trained).So overall rating for Expedia I have given zero and for the property 2. This was a genuine concern

One night stay

The hotel and the room were very clean, the reception staff were very friendly and helpful too. The staff member at the pool was a bit abrupt, but that didnt affect our overall stay. The breakfast was very good with a wide selection to suit all. Great views overlooking the seafront for breakfast. Just to be aware that we could hear loud music during the evening that went on into the night so I presume there was a nightclub nearby so earplugs worth bringing depending upon which room you are booked in!
