Budget hotel not budget prices

Spacious room, wonderful sea view, quiet mostly except for inconsiderate guests making a noise after various returns to the adjacent room from the wedding at the hotel. Not the hotels fault. Breakfast was ok. Ran out of cooked items at 9 am despite finish at 9:30. A cafeteria experience. Didn’t eat dinner, very uninspiring budget coach party fayre.

Lovely room with fantastic view. Very pleasant staff. Food was excellent. A little chaotic over staffing levels to cover bars. Sign would say a bar was closed and to use the other bar in the restaurant but when you went to that bar there were no staff working on it. They had to leave the restaurant to serve the drinks. Have stayed on a number of occasions and will definitely book again.

Having stayed at The Haven on several occasions previously we found the breakfast very disappointing when compared with our previous stays. Car parking also has a new regime in place. Rooms seem as before. The menu for evening meals was also much reduced from previously- so we ate out during our stay. All things considered if and when we travel to the area again we will look elsewhere for accommodation. Pity really because we have some fond memories of our previous stays. The hotel itself seems unchanged and is in a great position.

Beautiful location and excellent staff. We felt well taken care of. My one critique, is our bed was listed as a king bed but it is only a queen. They ended up moving us to a room with two beds, but they seemed surprised with the feedback about the bed size.

Disappointing

Stayed at The Little Haven several times and previously enjoyed our stay. Service and food quality in the restaurant poor, some very overcooked, another dish unrecognisable. Breakfast was okay. Lounge area is more like a cafe area and bar often closed. Bedroom was comfortable but getting dated.
