Small room

Our room was an extremely small room. Had older style sash windows, no double glazing so there was some noise from outside. Fan and heater were provided. No takeaway food allowed in room, not that we wanted it but not known that before. Parking was on street parking, we didn't have any problems finding a space but it sometimes involved a bit of manoeuvring to get in on the narrow roads

I could not fault it

Room 4 was my single room with its own WC and Basin plus a shower room just across the landing for private use. A bathrobe was made available. The room I stayed in was perfect for any solo traveller. Hillary was lovely and ensured everything was OK The hotel is a 12 minute walk from train station with a local bus service passing close by. I could not fault it.

Everything was fine at first. But felt like we couldnt talk or watch tv cos the old couple next to us complained. We weren't being loud the walls were paper thin. Windows old floors creeky everywhere. We weren't allowed food in the room and dining room wasn't open. Where were we supposed to eat. I dont recommend if you like to have fun without having to creep around. Kinda ruined our break

Convenient for town centre. Friendly reception, however an earlier check in would have been preferred, I think a 16:00 check in is a bit late.

Perfect little hotel for a coastal getaway. The room was cosy but ideal for a short break. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and the place was spotless. Perfect location in the quieter end of town, but within really easy walking distance to the busy bits. Gorgeous views around the corner overlooking the town, and there's the cliff lift right nearby for the journey back up the hill if you need it.

We had a friendly welcome from Tess, were given our keys to our room. We had room 2 which was a decent size with lovely fleece bedding. The shower was perfect, could do with a shelf for shower gel etc and a few hooks for clothes/ towels. We didn't have breakfast. It's a 15 minute stroll to the town centre with lovely views on route , would definitely recommend.
