Wouldn't go back unfortunately
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Zero water pressure in the shower, and it felt so cramped and uncomfortable, had to shower with the shower door open just to wash my body.

Also I left early, about half 7. Rats running round the carpark

Pros:

its location and parking

Cons:

it’s old and needs updating, the bed was so old and cheap it was finished and had a old blanket as a mattress protector. The pillows smelled of damp. the owner has lost his mojo to running a business.

Enjoyed our stay, great location
Pros:

We liked the hotel. The location was excellent, close to the beach and high street for bars, restaurants and shops. The hotel had a pool and free parking. The hotel was very quiet.

Cons:

There seemed to be so much missed opportunity and potential with the hotel which is a shame. Could definitely have done with air conditioning. We stayed when it was really hot!
