Was nice but could have been so much more.

Was ok, i enjoyed the sea view room. Over-all experience was positive, but a couple of the day staff showed a lack of empathy for the elderly or those that didnt quite understand some of the rules. My room was clean but carpet hadnt been hoovered recently.

Would stay again.

Good location . Minutes to sea front . All on the flat. Car parking right out front . Amazingly helpful and friendly reception staff. Our room was ideal for just a place to sleep , shower and put our stuff. Very warm , and we was able to open window. To me this is a major plus in a hotel. Great value for money.

Cheap, clean and great location

The hotel was clean and at a great location. The staff were very friendly on initial phone contact and in person. The room was a little cold qhen we arrived and the bathroom could have benefitted from a heater or radiator but for the price you cant complain too much
