No pool. Good enough stay

From the outside this hotel looks a little sad and inside there was some nice elements. The public area furniture for example. Dont be fooled there is NO pool although advertised and hasnt been for a long time. Service was friendly and the breakfast plentiful and we recommend booking ahead for £7pp on Hotels.com as its double at the hotel. Bed was comfortable and room basic but clean. Overall, ok price for an ok hotel.

Traveling as a family of four with older children, no lock on bathroom doors, room with sea view was a good size but other room was a bit small for our needs. Dog was allowed which was brilliant. Room was great for a short term stay.

Very pleasant - Never judge a book by it's cover

The hotel looks pretty tired from outside but rooms and reception area had been updated to an excellent standard. Breakfast was great with plenty of choices. Only slightly negative comment is that the breakfast was served in a large ball room which lacked atmosphere. A few flower arrangements separating the tables from the large dance floor would have made the difference.
