Overall okay

Had a lovely stay over the bank holiday weekend. The evening service from the waitress and two waiters were outstanding, and it was a pleasure to see a group of people who genuinely love their job and were happy. However, when booking breakfast for the last morning of our stay the girl at the desk was less than friendly and my partner said he felt he couldn't speak to her about things and she seemed annoyed. The hotel was clean, with a great atmosphere, and the live music was a welcome surprise. My partner slept great, however I did not due to being uncomfortable on the mattress and being able to hear guests coming and going from their rooms, I was pleasantly surprised to not be able to hear the music or crowds below. Overall a fantastic stay, very happy. Thank you.

Some bits great, some not so great

Firstly, the food and staff are great! The afternoon tea is amazing! The room was nice and clean and spacious with everything you need. Sadly although we paid a premium to have a sea view room, which we did so no complaint there (room 22), was directly above the bar area which had a large speaker above the bar near the ceiling therefore just below our floor. The first night I had to get up gone midnight to ask that the music be turned down. Which was done. The following evening I confirmed with the bar staff that the music would go off when the bar closed 11.30 ISH and it did. The other up and down side was there was live music on the Friday and Saturday evening which was louder than the bar music, lovely to sit down there listening to but again if in room 22 so loud there's no chance of getting a Granny nap in before dinner. Perhaps the hotel should look into improving the sound proofing in room 22 in particular. If I return I'll be more likely to go for a cheaper room at the back of the hotel and forego the sea view as it looks like most of the sea view rooms are directly over the bar and restaurant area.

When I got to the room it was very cold. The bathroom hot. I had to return to reception to inform them of this as they have removed the room phones and this means they could not be notified nor give room service. I have limited mobility and as there was no lift I found the whole system difficult . When I was asked if I enjoyed my stay , the next morning, I told them what had happened and the receptionist implied that she thought I was being difficult and not at all sympathetic. I hope when she is older and less able she remembers and has regrets on how she treated her guests.

A very speedy change to an accessible room on arrival which was very spacious and quiet. For us, the overnight temperature was a bit too warm, and being on the ground floor didn't feel opening a window was a sensible option! But we managed!
