Delightful staff, good food and a comfortable room in a gorgeous location.
Pros:

The staff were very accomodating, well organised and friendly. The room was clean, tidy, had a nice original hardwood floor and its 'beachy' theme was nice. There is also a properly constructed modern and safe children's outdoor play area so if you have children that would be a memorable experience for their holiday.

Cons:

The lights in the outdoor corridors which eventually switch off but a suggestion would be to perhaps use sensor lights and blackout curtains or similar just for the affected window.

Okay, not amazing, not terrible.
Pros:

Very loud being at a pub but the room was clean. We would have preferred alternative accommodation but there was no other options. I would not stay here again

Cons:

The noise. Loud rooms on the road and being at a pub. The town itself is very small so there is nothing to do. Wouldn't stay agin
