Didn't see any staff during the 4 night stay.The car park is very small so definitely first come first served, I didn't get to park there at all during my stay. There is free parking across the road between 6pm and 8am. It doesn’t have a hotel feel at all, more of a house share .

Great sea view room. Comfy bed. Represented great value for money. Contactless reception with code access is a little inconvenient, especially for work travellers like myself. Carrying mini suitcase, laptop bag etc. Would recommend and stay again.
