Quiet seaside stay
Pros:

The hotel was centrally located with secure parking. There were restuarants in the hotel, so no need to look for elsewhere to eat. It was quiet at night.

Cons:

The carpets in the hotel look as if they could do with a good clean.

Breakfast, although tasty was cold, along with cold plates on the first morning. I do feel that they would benefit by having a cooking station, so that one could order fried eggs and possibly omlets. Scrambled eggs dry out very quickly when made in large quantities and left standing.
