Pros:

Staff were lovely and accommodating. Pool was well loved by my kids, and the room was spacious. Appreciated having a kitchen. Location right on the beach was fab, although currently closed following significant erosion.

Cons:

Unfortunately it was not well cleaned, lots of dust, found an old bandaid under the bed, and clumps of hair stuck to the blanket. The light cover fell off in the bathroom, fortunately not onto anyone, and the staff were very unsurprised that it had happened. Lastly, the utensils and cooking equipment is the cheapest of the cheap, a warped frying pan, mini tongs that the heads fall out of, and more.

Pros:

Staff were great on check in.

Cons:

Room had a unpleasant odour on arrival.
Couch felt & looked unclean especially on arm rests.
Sadly during our stay an unfortunate incident occurred when a resident had a bad fall from upstairs level landing outside our front door, we assisted where possible till ambulance arrived although sad this happened we were still inconvenienced for a few hours as our front door had to remain open the whole time so the ambulance & fire brigade could attend to resident.
