Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut, es gibt ein paar kostenlose Parkplätze des Hotels selber und ein paar bezahlbare Parkplätze direkt nebenan auf denen man Nacht umsonst parken darf.
Vom Hotel aus kann man Fussläufig mehrere Sehenswürdigkeiten besuchen und kommt auch gut zur Hauptstraße mit dem Auto, von der man weiter auf die Insel oder Richtung Weymouth kommt.
Die Zimmer sind im modernen Stil eingerichtet.

Direkt neben dem Hotel gibt es mehrere Badestellen.

Cons:

Zu der Badestelle lässt sich leider sagen, das sie anscheinend ein Treffpunkt der ansässigen Jugend zu seien scheint, die auch gerne bis später in die Nacht laut sind. Somit ist schlafen mit offenen Fenster teils schwer.

Pros:

Parking, friendly staff, room clean

Cons:

TV reception was poor, breakfast was very oily and not hot, and though I asked for the vegetarian options, I didn't get beans even though they came with my husband's meat breakfast! (The lady then offered them but we didn't have time.)
