Booked the best suite on offer, arrived late to a disabled room on the first floor. Pull alarms everywhere, not overly romantic. Didn’t sleep a wink due to excessive noise from nightclub, road and other guests. Wouldn’t recommend and won’t be returning.

Breakfast, no marmalade, salted butter, fried bread, hash browns. Room decoration very tired, paper coming away from wall. Dent in wall like a fist/head. Door to room had been jemmied at some point, and the bed settee tired and uncomfortable. Large cobweb by the window overlooking the sea from the lounge even after telling reception staff it was still there when we checked out. 12.5% service charge not obvious on menu or the bill. Was this obligatory or discretionary. Staff though were charming. Bed was comfortable.
