Disappointed with the room size. Small bathroom and very limited storage. A small wardrobe and no additional drawers for other clothes. We had to leave items in the suitcase which is not what you want on a weekend break.

Excellent value - the bed was very comfortable and the room in general was of a high standard with a really good bathroom. The bar was welcoming too. Would very happily return, as the cost was extremely reasonable. Highly recommended.

the airconditioning does not work i couldnt sleep because it was too warm im sure they are aware that this particular room had a problem because the receptionist asked me specifically about the temperature, i did say it was warm and i tried to adjust it by changing the settings but it was locked and no further action after that, there was construction outside which i dont blame but it was really noisy at times that why i cant open the balcony door, the pillows were worn out, they ran out of bacons and eggs as early as 0800h for breakfast

We paid extra for a room with a balcony overlooking the sea - and so glad we did! The room was spacious with a couple of comfy armchairs we sat in with the doors to the balcony open just soaking up the sound of the sea. Everything about the hotel was well done - the breakfast spread was excellent, even the lifts came as soon as you pushed the button! But the best thing about it was its location, right by the sea and an easy walk into the lovely part of town with theatres and restaurants. Loved it.
