The team member i first met explained about parking which was completely free, and i found this so helpful. the location is excellent. It is directly opposite the beach with a roomy, clean sitting area, and i loved sitting outside to eat and drink. my room was a good size. It felt very very comfy and tidy.
the tv in the room felt a little outdated and slow.

Wonderful Stay with Excellent Amenities

convenient locationfriendly staffsecure parkingtricky key
The location was very convenient, offering easy access to seafront attractions. The staff members were very helpful and friendly, promptly addressing my inquiries. The provided gluten free menu catered well to my dietary needs. I also found secure parking very useful.
The room key was sometimes tricky, as it required a visit to the bar for assistance.

The hotel offered a gluten free menu, very helpful with dietary restrictions. I appreciated the manager informing us of local alternatives since food service ended early due to the off season. The restaurant also included a play area for children.

Underwhelming Stay. Needs Improvement

great sizerundown exterioruncomfortable bed
The room offered a great size, definitely a plus.
The hotel exterior looks rundown with graffiti. This created a bad first impression. Parking was also problematic, as spots were not allocated for hotel guests, this meant I had to pay extra. The double bed felt very uncomfortable. I could feel the springs.
