Cleanliness
6.5
Multiple reviewers reported pet smell in corridors, stained shower fittings, dirty bathroom curtain, slow-draining sink and drain smells, and a cigarette smell in the lift — lowers overall cleanliness impression.
Service
9
Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, helpful and amazing on several stays; isolated report of an unfriendly checkout interaction but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised: excellent location close to beach/centre, great bay views and convenient for attractions — a clear strong point across reviews.
Room Quality
9
Many guests mention large, comfortable rooms, good views and well-equipped rooms (fridge, hairdryer, iron). Some rooms were reported as excessively hot and a few maintenance issues (sash window, bathroom button) but overall very positive.
Amenities
9
Good on-site amenities noted (bar area, parking, stocked mini-fridge, toiletries, iron/ironing board). Minor negatives: poor fan provided and limited local walk/ride info.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed signals: described by one as a budget option but others note high restaurant prices and extra charges (small dog fee); generally acceptable value but not outstanding.
Food and Beverage
8
Food receives praise in places (‘‘really good’’) but breakfast cooked options are limited/poorly executed for some guests, and restaurant menu choices/pricing drew criticism.
Overall Experience
9.5
Majority of stays described as enjoyable, many guests plan to return or were on repeat stays; strong overall satisfaction despite a few issues.

Mycket trevligt.
Pros:

Läget är mycket bra. Det är nära till både järnvägsstationen och stranden. Frukosten var helt okej. Saknade dock grönsaker.

Cons:

Det kan inte skyllas på hotellet men det var ett jäkla liv på fiskmåsarna som tydligen hade ett tillhåll på hotellets baksida. Förstod efter första natten varför det låg påsar med öronproppar i rummet. Safen fungerade inte när vi kom. Personalen löste det dock snabbt.

Unsatisfied customer breakfast terrible
Pros:

The room was very nice and decorated ok

Cons:

Well let's start first the breakfast costing £15 each was terrible streaky bacon scrambled eggs that looked like it had been done the night before and beans that was your cooked breakfast
The bathroom the sink was to near the toilet so you struggled to sit down anybody that was a bit on the chunky side it would have been impossible. The seating in the restaurant was hard to get a seat ,we left hotel at 10:00 and went for something to eat as both hungry and had a beautiful breakfast in town which cost us £8:00each which filled us up for the rest of the day .
Definitely would not pay for breakfast in hotel or order any food from menu
