Disappointed.
Pros:

Nothing. It is an old property. The hotel was closed - only opens late in the week & weekend. Not as suggested. Facilities poor. Room size worse.

Cons:

Everything. At least a bed, a shower but apart from that, basically disgusting.

Poor service from reception
Pros:

Great location and had a room that faced the ocean. Perfect for sunrise

Cons:

Rang reception in the morning to say we would arrive after 5pm & provided card details & would be seeking code to access room after hours. Expected to receive code during the day. Texted receptionist close to 5pm same one that texted me earlier asking for code no response. Arrived still no code bistro staff didn’t know anything eventually maintenance guy went to key box my form in there no key. Got key off hook in reception.
