Poor
Pros:

Not much

Cons:

Overall facility needs a serious face lift. Check in was basically here’s your card the rooms are in the back.
Breakfast is a ghost town for any kind of service. Cereals and cold eats left out and not one staff member around to order a pot of tea or hot food.

Did the job but wouldn’t go back
Pros:

Location had an amazing view of the sea.

Cons:

When we arrived, the window in our room was wide open and we quickly figured out it was to mask the smell of sewage coming from The toilet in the bathroom. The picture we saw on Booking.com was of rooms with views of the sea but the room we got was on the other side of the building which faced the car park and a mobile home campsite. There was rubbish outside our window from work that had not been finished on the roof. The breakfast we got was very basic and it took a long time to come out of the kitchen. We were told when we checked in that hotel was fully booked and we could not switch our room but when we went for breakfast in the morning there was nobody around? The girl at reception was not very pleasant and seemed void any sort of pleasantries that you expect from someone whos job it is to welcome you in.
