Very spacious room with amazing sea views, however, decor very old and dated. That said, still reasonable for the price. Some renovation works going on, could be amazing in this location

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Although work going on in the building, it did not affect us. Room was huge, bed very comfortable, and the added bonus of a large sofa to watch tv if needed, small table and 2 chairs overlooking the sea. And all exceptionally clean. Everything you need in the room, tea/coffee, towels, soaps, hairdryer etc. Would definitely go there again.

Hotel is literally being demolished before your very eyes - hopefully it will come out stronger without leaks, slanted floorways, and better windows. The rooms themselves are extremely small and not super clean. The walls are coming undone with fiberglass showing and it's just a troubling sight. Breakfast was good and staff are doing their best given the condition of the structure.

Will be good once all the work has been completed., as its having a full refurbishment at the moment, would have been good to of been told when booking. Also the lift was not in service. Breakfast is ok but need better quality sausages.
