Pros:

Fantastic breakfast. High quality food! Surprised the restaurant was so quiet. Room was comfortable and clean and amazing sea view. Close to water front.

Cons:

Room was very small. Later we found out it was the smallest room in the hotel. Had to sit sideways on the toilet.

Great location, great breakfast including vegan choice
Pros:

Fantastic location opposite the pier and right next door to local pubs, super friendly staff and a great full English breakfast and one vegan breakfast, left my wallet in the room and one of the girls went and got it and kept it safe until I returned for it.

Pros:

Hotel was excellent, modern and clean . Decor was at a very high standard, as we walked through hotel carpets ,walls so really well maintained all looked like new.
Room was the same walk in shower was lovely. Bed very comfortable ,and room had air con that's a bonus. Restaurant food (greek), my wife is greek and she was impressed .

Cons:

If anything hotel does not have own car park, you would have to pay £12.50 for 24 hours car parking. But we left car in road, and was ok .
