Although we booked the smallest room it was big enough for a couple having a short break. Room was clean and bed comfortable.
There was nothing that my wife and I didn't like.

Lovely clean rooms, excellent food prepared for us although the kitchen was closed when we arrived.
Am struggling to find fault with thier setup. If I have to be nit picky a hair dryer in the room would have been good.

lovely pub/hotel. the lovely woman who checked us in and served us behind the bar was a highlight. really friendly and,made us feel very welcome, she’s a bit asset! the room was also perfect for our needs, very clean and a good night’s sleep in a comfy bed.
we were initially worried about how little parking there was, be booked based on the free parking at the hotel but there is only a few spaces and they were full when we arrived. fortunately someone left soon after we’d checked in so we did get a space, but it gave us a little stress working out where we would have to park if a space didn’t become available.

Overpriced.No cooked breakfast.

Location of the hotel is perfect. Restaurant and bar is convenient downstairs.
We stayed in January, it might be noisier st peak season
Breakfast was kind of poor. Besides the eggs and the toast, nothing was cooked.
One slice of cheese, one slice of ham and two cut up cherry tomatoes, all cold didn't meet our expectations for the price.
Since the hotel has a restaurant with a full kitchen the breakfast could have been better, or a lesser price tag

Location was great very close to the beach
Nice breakfast at LOAF nearby
Not a reserved parking space per room
If hotel is in the name I expect a hotel experience. Checking in at a crowded bar is not great
Also noise from the pub til 23.00
Checking out no one was there just a cleaning lady and a box to put the key in
3.0
Location was good
Rough, slightly scary pub. Very aggressive cleaner who barged my partner out of the way and was very abrupt and rude
