Pros:

Great location; easily accessible.
Staff were great and the rooms super clean.
I loved the breakfast options.

Cons:

There’s only overhead shower in my room, no handheld options. Was quite difficult to shower without getting my braids wet.

Comfortable, chilled out, perfect location and lovely staff
Pros:

Lovely hotel. Spacious comfortable room and a wonderful bathroom with a sea view bath… perfect for a soak after a long walk. Nice breakfast and excellent coffee, All the staff were friendly and welcoming with host Gareth even putting up with my terrible attempts to speech Welsh!

Cons:

All good… maybe a second (savoury) veggie breakfast option, but that’s being picky, the avocado toast was fab especially with chilli salt!

Great hotel that deserves its score!!
Pros:

The room was great, lovely large comfortable bed, nice area to sit. Coffee machine and good choice of teas etc. The bathroom had a large shower and a bath. The staff were very helpful and friendly. My husband said the cooked breakfast was very good and just the right size. I had their granola, yoghurt and fruit which was very tasty.

Cons:

There wasn't really anything that we didn't like, although we are now a lot fitter than we were as being on the top floor in an old building means no lift 🤣🤣

Very good
Pros:

Breakfast was good, couldn't fault the location

Cons:

There was no parking outside the hotel. The parking was 5 to 10 minutes walk. Not to much of an issue, unless it's raining.
