We asked for a room to be on the first floor as my wife is recovering from a knee replacement, so we was placed on the second floor. Took ages to get up and down the stairs. Also requested a sea view and was given a town facing room.

Not quite as good as I hoped.

So-so welcome, was told to come to reception to replenish milk when necessary but found I didn’t have any in room. Headed for the bar, where I asked about the advertised limited edition XPA but the barman said “I haven’t got a clue, they just stick a card up without telling us.” So, overall first impressions weren’t great. Luckily for Sheps, the rest of the crew were very good during the evening and breakfast next day, indeed breakfast was very good and tasty compared to many other establishments. Unfortunately the bed was not level due to a top-floor room having an uneven floor and I was having to slightly prop myself in bed to prevent roll-out to the edge. Shower was powerful but water up the top was only warm all through the stay, and although that suited me, it may not suit others. I wasn’t asked on check-out if everything was ok with the room/our stay, so don’t feel awkward raising the issues here.
