The receptionist was very nice and helpful. The sea view rooms have great views. Location is also very convenient. But the fire alarm went off at 2am one of the nights and nearly gave me a heart attack. It went off again the same night and i’ve never been startled like that before.

Very bad hotel, most of the things in the reception and lobby are broken. Carpets are really dirty, I mean this hotel and its room and carpets will redefine the meaning of unhygienic and filthy. The rooms are so smelly. We had to request for change of room and second room was equally smelly and dirty.

Fire alarm went of once during each of my two nights stay Once at 1.30am and the other day at 3am in the middle of the night No one from the staff came to check on guests, no information given either Really unsafe process in place - doubt its compliant either … would be interesting to check Horrible stay and they refused to refund the stay while they could not even fulfil the minimum required from a hotel - being able to sleep basically Not recommending this place at all

Nice hotel on the seafront, easy access to the beach and promenade. Staff very helpful and friendly; nice reception area with beach view and easy parking (booked in advance). Clean room, although no sea views, but only stayed one night and didn’t matter much. Will definitely book again.

The staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful. Parking was really good and right outside the front door. The location is great and within easy walking distance of town and the beaches. However, the hotel is very tired, the rooms need a complete revamp and more than a lick of paint. I’d stay here again, but I’d bear in mind that it’s definitely not a luxury hotel and you get what you pay for.
