Pros:

Good access to local shops and eateries.The rooms were well decorated,beds quite comfortable with a good shower
Staff were helpful,a good breakfast was offered and the Hop Inn was a gentle 15 minute walk to the pier and centre.

Cons:

This is a small older building with no lift which I understand is not practicable.There was a working radiator in the rooms,but they were a little cold.These are minor points,overall the property is very good.
