Unattended site, make sure you get the codes via email. Beyond that it's a great little hotel. Quiet, very clean, warm and comfortable. Good shower and a fridge in the room. Nice view out of the front facing rooms and whilst parking is limited, during the week I had no problem (arrived after 4pm and had my choice!). Very close to the beach and the main strip. Would definitely stop again.
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.
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 .
All good except for a terrible smell from the bathroom

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Clean tidy room with comfortable beds, all pretty basic but fine for the night. Communication was really good. Codes for doors worked well. Only issue was a wobbly loo seat!
