Comfortable and clean with friendly staff, but a little dated
Pros:

The bed was large and very comfy, the location was great (right on the sea front). Breakfast was great and staff very friendly.

Cons:

The hotel bedroom (not the reception or breakfast area) is a little tired but clean, which I didn’t expect for the amount paid. Bathroom was very small with the shower, sink and toilet inside the wetroom.

Ok but not great
Pros:

Very comfy bed & friendly staff.

Cons:

No lift & room on top floor, which I didn’t notice when booking, not to good for older people. Parking expensive & breakfast not included. Paid £500 for two nights plus £50 parking. Sold as room with city view, but actually looked down on run down buildings.
