The shore
Pros:

The location was very close a park over looking the beach and lovely sea views, a short walk to the local bus stops. Bus services which were excellent.
Communication with the hotel was via the booking app but we were given all the information we needed and when we reported a broken shower fixture we had an quick apology and it was fixed the next day while we were out.
The hotel was very basic but we only used it for sleeping in during our stay so suited our needs.

Cons:

The bed was hard and very uncomfortable. Our room was at the side of the house so it looked directly into the next hotel and we had to keep our curtains closed for privacy.

Our stay has been amazingly relaxing and refreshing.
Pros:

Location and privacy

No hooks in the shower room nor in the wardrobe for used clothes towels or coats. Mirror lights in the shower room is not working. Room cleaning is not default and has to be requested and paid separately.

Great stay
Pros:

The location and free parking were spot on for us and we even had a small fridge in the room

Cons:

Even though it was a lovely shower we couldn't get the shower head in a fixed position which I think is to do with the very rigid shower hose
