Nice staff but old and dated / my door didn’t have a lock on the inside door at night - the place was clean but really old - maybe ok for groups of 2 or more but felt overpriced for a 1 night stay

A great place to stay with everything we needed, including being able to buy reasonably priced drinks from reception. Rooms are very clean and serviced to a high standard. There was everything we needed in the room. Its a very cosy and compact property with a friendly atmosphere. For those who have negatively commented on this property, i cant understand why! It has everything needed for a great stay! It is about 20 mins walk to the esplanade though but this didnt bother us. Great stay, lovely place. Thank you

The resort was nice and clean with friendly staff. The only thing I didn't really like was the bed. It was comfortable but the double bed was actually two singles pushed together and the middle was obviously uncomfortable. I think it should be advertised that this is the bed you get
