The property needs a major makeover with new paint, plumbing and furnishings. The paint choices in the reception area were loud and vulgar. The upholstery was dirty. Our room had two beautiful windows looking out onto the sea but the electricity and plumbing was 50 years old. I had to get another room to shower in because the water pressure was so bad. On the good side, the staff worked hard to make sure we had what we needed despite the deteriorating infrastructure.

Nice hotel-No Water Pressure!!

Nice hotel and excellent staff, but you need to be a powerlifter to turn the tap on in the bath as the water pressure is so poor it can take 45 minutes to fill the tub. Also if you want a shower the water comes out in a dribble, not enough to wash the shampoo out of your hair

lovely stay

Arrival was a little upsetting as we had asked for use of a wheelchair and phoned the week before to check availability, told there was no wheelchair. After a short while a solution was found and the wheelchair was usable thankfully. The room was perfect well appointed and super view of the bay. the staff were friendly and happy to help when asked only real negative was dinner service was very slow.

Overall the room was clean and spacious. Property is old and in need of renovation. Our room was on the back of the property in what can be described as a row of little shanty looking houses. It did the job but I won't be staying here again.

We were not placed in the room we booked, which apparently does not even exist. The sheets were dirty on one of the beds, and there were dirty bandaids littered across the entryway to our room. The staff was very kind and attentive, but it's hard to make up for that feeling that you are sleeping in a really dirty room.

This property does show its age. The staff we’re overall unhelpful and unwelcoming and we were charged an extra 45 pounds for having 3 people in a triple room. When asked to have follow up on this I am still waiting 5 days later for a call from management that was unavailable to address my concerns.

The hotel was lovely with friendly staff. The room and bed was very large, a little dated and could do with more power sockets. Also the shower head would not stay in the holder so you had to hand hold. The breakfast was very tasty.

Hotel is in a superb location. It shows its age but much has been done to modernize it, which frequently clashes with its original decor.
