Een soort Victoriaans hotel. Knus en ook oudbollig. Aan de voorkant zeezicht aan een rustige doodlopende weg. Op loopafstand tot de restaurants en bars. Parkeren voor en achter het hotel. Ontbijt moet je bij het inchecken bestellen en wordt aan tafel geserveerd.
Wifi in de kamer op de telefoon slecht, op de laptop werkt het wel, maar traag. In de publieke ruimten prima.

Hotel well situated over looking the water. Good view from breakfast room and public area. Excellent breakfast, cooked to order. Be aware you need to order it the night before. Price we paid very reasonable compared to others in town.
Hotel is quite tired looking. Our room was in the process of being decorated, furniture could do with replacement.

The check in was soulless The room was cold and the beds were like camp beds and the duvets very thin and poor. The towels were like tea towels. We didnt have breakfast and wouldnt have paid extra

It's a good base for sightseeing, views from lounge & dinning room are fantastic, breakfast staff & housekeeping staff are lovely. .
The noise coming from the bar after 11pm was horrendous, bar manager & guest??, playing guitar & shouting singing till after 2 am, couldnt sleep as room right above it.

Room far too hot for a dog,and me! Nobody's fault, room above boiler room and pipes comin up through the room and laundry below too. Just unfortunate we were given that room!

Very little other than the convenient location
I have stayed at this hotel many times before and described it as basic, in need of updating, but comfortable. It is now dilapidated, dirty and noisy. Customer service is very poor.

Staff were nice and helpful and decent tea and coffee facilities in room
Room was stuck in 1970's and WiFi didn't work.
The shower had more water coming out of connection to supply than shower head so not ideal for washing. No breakfast included in price had to pay £7 which was reasonable.
Could do with updating

Location great. Breakfast great
Room was tiny. Curtains on back to front. Recently painted & they painted round things as marks on light fittings and hairdryer cable. Artex ceiling recently done and splatters left on walls. Bed was very old with lumps. Chairs were even older snd falling apart. Bathroom was so small good if you want to clean your teeth while sitting on the loo! Dead spider splat on wall. Window dirty from inside double glazed panels couldn't see out. Then again wouldn't want to as was told it would be a garden view but instead it was of the bins and neighbouring house! Walls so thin could hear all conversations from surrounding rooms.
