It did the job we needed, a base for the Krankenhaus festival.
Pros:

The location, the view of the sea, beach is amazing. I like the old kind of retro aspect to it.

Cons:

The TV didn't work but then again we weren't there to watch it but I wouldn't mind being able to tune in to the weather first thing in the morning.

Pros:

The area is great for easy access to the beach and is a short walk to the shops.

Cons:

The hotel needs some repairs and updates as not all rooms have fridges and most of the walls have damp or cracks in them.

Pros:

Ubytování má kromě pohodlí, čistoty a vkusného zařízení především nádherný výhled na moře. Strávil jsem v pokoji jen jednu noc na mém putování po Lake District a nechtělo se mi z něho ani odcházet. Pro mě, jako pro středoevropana, je usínání za chechotu racků a šumění moře něco jedinečného. Procházka po pláži na snídani je zážitek sám o sobě. Snídaně byla skvělá s milou obsluhou. Stýská se mi po tom místě.

The location and the convenience of getting he key which is left by the entrance of the porch
