Zusammenfassend hatten wir aber einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt und haben uns in dem Hotel sehr wohl gefühlt. WIr wären nu
Pros:

Die Freundlichkeit der Gastgeber und ihr Bemühen, den Gästen alles so angenehm wie möglich zu machen. Das mit viel Liebe angerichtete Frühstück.

Cons:

Schade fanden wir es persönlich, dass es eben nur Möglichkeiten des englischen Frühstücks gab und eben kein gutes Brot oder etwas Schinken, Käse oder auch mal Lachs. Etwas Käse haben wir auf unsere Bitte dann aber bekommen. Das Wasser im Schwimmbad war ziemlich frisch, das war schade. Leider bekamen wir immer nur ein Gesichtshandtuch trotz Doppelbelegung, da mussten wir nachhaken. In den 9 Tagen haben wir auch keine frischen Gläser bekommen. Das Zimmer war etwas klein, das Bad auch, die Tür vom Bad ließ sich nur etwas mühsam schließen. In zwei Nächten war es nachts sehr laut durch Nachbarn bis weit in die Nacht.

Frábært hótel í Torquay
Pros:

Yndislegt fjölskyldurekið hótel, þar sem ró og afslöppun er í forgangi. Nutum þess að vera þarna og mælum eindregið með þessari staðsetningu og kyrrð. Herbergið frábært og morgunmaturinn fullkominn, sundlaugasvæðið gat ekki verið betra.
Sátum úti morgna sem og kvölds í kyrrð og ró.

September sun on the English Riviera
Pros:

Great staff throughout our stay, always made to feel welcome. Warm enough to use the swimming pool in September was a bonus. Good breakfast to set you up each day

Cons:

Quite a walk from restaurants etc so we kept fit. We chose a compact room which was compact 🤣

Pros:

John and Nicki were the most perfect hosts to this fantastic hotel. Everything was perfect from booking in, cleanliness, hospitality, location. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean! I quite liked the booking form for breakfast which made a refreshing change from the usual steamed soggy buffet style breakfast you get at other hotels.

Cons:

There wasn't anything to dislike.
