Great location
Pros:

Great location in centre of town, plesant helpful staff. Good breakfast. Room was comfortable, quiet even though it was right on a road. Comfortable bed. Didnt use bar, but it looked quite nice.

Cons:

Parking was difficult, but that might have been the time of day we arrived. Pool area was a little grubby, sinks broken, no hand dryer or paper towels.
Curtains in room were dirty and mouldy and had cigarette burn. Only 1 coffee sachet per person in room.

Disappointing
Pros:

Location was good.

Cons:

Breakfast was very disappointing. Bar/lounge was cold and no atmosphere. Room was very basic. Rang reception to look for an iron, no answer after calling many times, went down to reception then and asked for an iron, it never arrived. Basic things but these details matter.

Food was delicious
Pros:

The marina bar food was excellent would eat from there again and the bed was comfy

Cons:

I didn’t like how there was only 2 single pillows on the bed instead of 4 pillows for a superior room, the bar staff at the marina bar took 45 minutes for drinks order to come down on two occasions had to keep reminding them weren’t very professional at all and the car park had very limited parking spaces
