Pros:

The hotel staff were friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere was inviting and the building itself was lovely.
The food was excellent; both breakfast and dinner.
It's a very dog friendly hotel so it felt really relaxed bringing our dog with us for the stay.

The room was just dreadful. Dark and dingey, air conditioning units humming throughout the night, hotel exterior lights
Pros:

The cove was good for a swim
Breakfast and breakfast staff both v good

Cons:

The room was just dreadful. Dark and dingey, air conditioning units humming throughout the night, hotel exterior lights reflecting in the room all night, no aspect, small, bathroom surfaces not cleaned daily, noise transference from neighbouring rooms. No lounge area. A couple of sofas in place facing the toilets and away from the view. Hotel loses the sun very early.
