Good budget accomodation and great location.
Pros:

The location is great. Perfect for walking straight down to the beach and not noisy like the centre. Its great they have a small gym, although I didnt use it. The bed was really comfy and the facilities were quiet and clean. Theres also a fridge in the room which is really useful.

Cons:

Small things really. In my room there was no towel rails at all and no drawers to put clothes in. There was a walk in cupboard but it only had 3 coathangers (I did ask and get more). Although having a fridge is useful it was really noisy. It didnt stop me sleeping, but I imagine it might some people. The drinking water situation was strange. You are advised by the company not to drink the water from the tap and that to fill up from the water filter loacted on the ground floor. I had to go up and down 3 flights of stairs each time I needed to top up...this was quite inconvenient really, but I got used to it! Also there are no plugs near a mirror...didnt bother me...but could be an issue for others.

Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis
Pros:

Da wie bereits früher angereist sind, fragte ich nach, ob wir unser Gepäck abgeben könnten. Der Eigentümer war sehr freundlich, und wir konnten bereits um 13 Uhr einchecken.
Es werden sehr viele Freizeitmöglichkeiten angeboten. Wir haben Tischtennis und Kicker gespielt.
Der Zustand der Geräte ist sehr gut, ebenso wie die Ausstattung des Zimmers, neu möbliert, bequemes Bett, alles sauber ... alles perfekt ... danke!

Cons:

Die Fenster sind schmutzig.

Budget cost provides budget quality
Pros:

The location was great! Right next to beach

Cons:

The bed was bad, both me and my partner got pain in our lower backs from it. The pillows werent very good either tho they did provide you with 2. At night you can hear a lot of noises and the floorboards are quite thin.

Pros:

Einfaches einchecken, gute Lage, das Hotel ist natürlichauch schon in die Jahregekommen, aber ich fand es nicht schlimm und für 2 / 3 Nächte würde ich immer wiederkommen! Parkplätze vor der Tür sind wirklich sehr eng , es gibt in der Umgebung aber auch andere parkmöglichkeiten

Fantastic other than the toilet.
Pros:

Location was great, I enjoyed the do it yourself sort of stay, the minimal interaction is great for people like me and my partner who have challenges with social interaction.

Cons:

The only negative was that the toilet wouldn’t flush properly from the first use and might have been partially blocked from a previous stay.

Budget accommodation at a fair price.
Pros:

The location was good and there was onsite parking available for an extra fee. The bed and pillows were fairly comfortable and the bed linen was clean and white and a decent quality. Facilities were as described.

Cons:

No mirror in the bathroom. Drinking water was only from a dispenser on the ground floor (we were on the 3rd floor). No staff at all. A general run-down feel in the wider building. Flimsy curtains.
