Pros:

Location, food, beds, bathroom, view from our harbour-side room, friendly staff, the guest common kitchen (with daily cakes) and the dog treats! A lovely hotel that accepts dogs, ideal for a short stay (this was our second). An interesting bustling harbour and with access to the coast path.

Very good on coastal path with walks in either direction.
Pros:

Good breakfast options with ‘full English’ cooked to order. We had evening meals for duration of our stay I particularly liked the rump of lamb, pizza from the terrace bar was also an option. Liked the fact that a guests larder was in operation allowing us to stock up on tea, milk ,biscuits etc if required.

Cons:

Nothing

Nice location
Pros:

Lovely location but sadly some rooms like ours have absolutely no outlook unless you like roof tops.
Food nice but not really geared up for dairy free residents.

Cons:

Small cramped room. Poor outlook. Some staff a bit grumpy

Very nice hotel in a great location
Pros:

Lovely sea/harbour view room. Very good size and comfortable. Great having breakfast and afternoon drinks on the terrace outside by the harbour. Nice restaurant in the evening. We have re-booked for later in the year.

Cons:

Service was friendly but a bit chaotic at times.. We had thought this especially about the bar service before we had our final evening meal which we paid for at the time but it was then added to our bill on checkout. Speedily resolved though.
