Disliked: Cleanliness
We stayed here for two nights. Upon arriving there was hair everywhere in the room, the bathtub and on the bed. On top of that the glasses provided for the bathroom and the room for drinking were dirty with lip marks on them. The bathroom had no shower gel or shampoo included. The room itself was very spacious and had an amazing view as I had expected as we got a sea view room.

Great location. Helpful staff. Disappointed that they charge extra for parking, especially in the off season. It was advertised at £7, charged £10. When you pay £150 for a room, you’d expect the parking to be included
