This room was little tatty around edges but very clean However the sash window in our room was completely stuck open which made our night noisey and cold and there was no one in lobby to see about it

Good overall

This was a very cheap stay in a great destination. The hotel was excellent value for money and we had a fabulous view. It was very quiet so had a good sleep. However, it is tired in places and would benefit from a makeover. Wouldn't take a lot of work but would be beneficial in my view. Just needs more attention to detail. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Great value for money.

Good location and a nice view over the bay. Room fixtures and fittings are very old and really could do with an update, but that is reflected in the cost so fair enough. However, cleanliness of the room and en-suite shower room we’re excellent. Top marks for that.

Good value for money- room only

This is a no frills self-catered room. It had a queen sized double bed, desk, table and two chairs by the window overlooking the sea. Shower ensuite and the smallest built in wardrobe I have ever seen (6in deep). There was hot drink making facilities in the room and some toiletries. On the ground floor there was a kitchen and a communal area that was clean and user friendly. There is a cafe onsite on the ground floor....open from 0930 to 1700ish. There is a continental breakfast option o. A weekend. With it's location right on the front and walkable for town you don't need anything else. It was good value for money and we will stay again.

Clean, basic accommodation in a great location

Nice clean room, comfortable beds, great view of the bay. Bathroom a little cramped, nowhere to put anything (including hand towel, had to hang it over the shower) and fan did not work. Would stay again.
