Disliked: Cleanliness
Hotel was basic and tidy and reasonably priced. However, it is in need of modernisation and the cleanliness could be better. For example, I had to clean the light switch after entering the room. They have also just opened the swimming pool which is a bonus and a basic breakfast is included.

Ignore the bad reviews. This is the second year running I’ve came here with my children. The hotel is clean and the staff are really polite and helpful it’s cheaper than the other hotels in the area as it’s being refurbished the rooms are decent and lovely views if you get a sea room.

It was cheap as chips, which is why I booked it. But the room was dingy. Lots of areas badly in need of maintenance and the icing on the cake was a badly chipped mug provided to make coffee.
Chipped cup in room for tea and coffee

Only nice thing was the view from the room window. Didnt get any sleep due to noisey residents partying until atleast 4am. Hotel desperately needing refurbishing depressive downstairs reception and dining areas. Website very misleading with facilities as there was no bar and no parking This hotel should be closed down as definitely not fit for purpose
