A pleasant enough stay in a centrally located area.
Pros:

The rooms were spacious and the location was great.

Cons:

The room had a big window and sliding door but because the curtain nets were missing (just the hooks left in situ), we had no privacy when we pulled back the blockout drape. So we were in semi darkness for our stay. It was just for one night, which was tolerable. I mentioned the issue to reception on checkout. I think the rooms, while spotless, were overpriced.

Very enjoyable
Pros:

Very good location being handy to the shops, wharf and beach. Handy having restaurant on site at the pub. Only draw back was the steps we had to negotiate to get to the second floor accommodation . Thank goodness one of the male staff took our suitcases up and down for us.
Suggestion that a hanging rail for the tea towel be provided in room and one for the handtowels in the bathroom at the sink. An extra mirror would be handy either in wardrobe or on wall somewhere for use when the bathroom is being used.

Cons:

Only the stairs for your older customers. Everything else was great.

Just like home.Felt comfortable straight away and loved the no-nonsense remote control for the TV.
Pros:

The location was great .The pillows were quite hard but the bed was good otherwise.Great solid,comfortable room.Loved the fact that we hoped to dine at the restaurant but it was all reserved and appeared to be people our age or older had taken over.Loved that!!Therefore had dinner at one of the other local pubs and it was very nice.

Cons:

Nothing

Close to the town was ok for a short stay
Pros:

Room was very clean and close to the town centre

Cons:

We arrived early and had to wait until between 1.30 - 2.00pm which was fair enough but when we got a room it was on the upper level and being no lifts on site it was a struggle with our large suit cases , the frustrating part was that it was not fully booked out and had plenty of empty rooms on the ground level , so why make us go to a top room ?
Bar staff young and disinterested , so if you dont like your job work elsewhere
