Beds ver comfortable and clean.

The exterior of the hotel needs looking at. The surrounding grassed area, conservatory windows etc. Interior is lovely just some areas need updating

Good for a short stay.
Pros:

Good size room and very clean.

Cons:

Double bed was a little small for two people and room was very warm.

One small window could be opened, but didn't quite cut it.

It was, what it was.
Pros:

Bar and restaurant were nice, location was right on the beach.

Cons:

Room smelt like someone had even smoking in it, cig butt's evident out the window. Shower flooded the bathroom due to leaking pipe. Room looked very old and well used.
