Excellent value for money and friendly staff
The staff were welcoming and professional - they kindly upgraded me to a room with a sea view, at no extra cost.
Breakfast was basic but tasty and prepared with care.
Very convenient location - I'd certainly stay here again.
The hotel permits dogs, which is great for some, but there was a dog barking during the evening.

Il definitely be back!
I loved everything about this hotel, the sea view rooms are just perfect. It was definitely what I needed for a night of relaxation. We arrived and upon check in we were upgraded rooms at no extra cost, I enquired about a late check out and we were also given this for no extra cost.
Only downfall to my stay was that the room didn't have a bath, just a shower facility and the cleaner I found rather rude as we hadn't checked out at the usual time. It will definitely not put me off staying again, infact I'm already looking to book a longer stay in January.
