The hotel was expected and the staff were really friendly especially with my disability.
Pros:

The bed in my single room was very comfortable. My partner, who stayed in the room next door, said that the sea views were lovely. The breakfast was great.

My stay in a single room.
Pros:

This is my favourite hotel, there's nothing fake about it it's a lovely old building that has seen better days. The staff are not pretentious and they can't do enough for their guests. The food is beautiful with a varied menu and excellent table service. Always stay here if I can.

Cons:

Nothing
