I wouldn’t come back

This hotel is old which we don’t mind. It was right on the beach but our view was very limited. It was fairly clean. Everything was squeaky and noisy: the doors, the floor, the beds. The windows opened a sliver and it was really hot, no fans or any air flow. The beds were very uncomfortable. The toilet seat was the wrong size or not fitted properly and wouldn’t flush well( but that might be “English” thing). There is no free parking nearby. The check-in was good. The staff friendly. The breakfast was decent.

A really excellent location right on the beach. The room was clean and comfortable and the bed was very comfortable too. Breakfast was good although if you aren't there at the beginning they don't replenish fruit and croissants which is not ideal as they advertise breakfast as being from 8-10. By 9 there were no croissants. The outside are is attractive although I wasn't sure why there were two layers of railings between this and the beach. The hotel could have done with a bit of updating and not all the staff seemed to be very helpful or friendly.

Had a lovely stay but the curtains are not ideal as they do not cover the windows properly. We were in a corner room so had two windows - we also had a neon sign outside so there was constant light in our room and it was misleading when we woke during the night Breakfast was lovely - great variety Staff very polity and helpful Would definitely return but would bring eye mask
