Pros:

Superskön madrass i sängen. Uppskattar badkar, varm choklad och kaka. Väldigt serviceminded och trevlig personal. Tesco öppet 07-11 precis bredvid.

Cons:

Rummets fönster kunde haft bättre utsikt men ljuset i badrummmet med två fönster vägde upp.

Enjoyable but could have been better
Pros:

Location was perfect, staff were great, car parking was ideal right at the back of the hotel.

Cons:

On the top floor so the seagulls were very noisy. Breakfast was tasty but took a while to arrive despite there only being 5 people in the dining room. Room was fine but the bathroom needs a revamp asap.

Pros:

A localização e simpatia do staff

Cons:

O quarto era muito quente e sem climatização
Não se podia abrir a janela por causa dos insetos e também do barulho do ub que funciona em baixo.
A casa de banho não era muito limpa e dificilmente se consegue tomar banho de água quente

Cool place
Pros:

Rooms were decent size, one of them was freshly decorated, very 70s style which i loved. Very roomy bathroom and comfy beddings.price was fab too, considering it was in mid-July and in the town centre.

Cons:

Door to bathroom didn't shut properly which was quite funny. Only 2 teabags left and only 2 outlets, which is a bit of a bother if you want to plug multiple devices at once. Also mirror and a chair
in the room would be nice

Mediocre
Pros:

Close to the railway station. Bed was comfy. Reasonable value. Wouldn’t stay again.

Cons:

All a bit shabby. Food was average. The waiter had to ask what a large glass of Shiraz was. The second glass too 15 mins to come. The sash window in the room wouldn’t stay open.

Pros:

Central location to the town and also the marquee in the car park was brilliant.

Cons:

I paid for a deluxe king size room and I believe someone else had taken my room so I ended up with a normal room.
I didnt realise this until I got home on sunday.
