convenient location good room size worn bedding run down

the location was really convenient. i liked that it was close to many shops. the room was also a good size. it had everything i needed for my short trip.

the hotel room felt quite basic. i thought it could be cleaner and felt a little run down. the bedding seemed worn and old, which wasn't ideal.

A good coastal getaway

pictured room quick staff close beach amazing cafe

The room was VERY nice, exactly as shown in the pictures. It was a romantic surprise. The staff responded quickly to my messages. I REALLY appreciated their help. It was very close to the beach, and there was a bus stop just outside. I found AMAZING cafes and restaurants nearby.

The check-in details arrived a little later than expected, though this was resolved promptly.

Facilities

8/10

The room had all necessary facilities, including a kettle and television. This provided convenience. I noticed the secure entrance system used a door code, a measure that added to my sense of safety. The building seemed well-kept.

Dining

9/10

There are many cafes and restaurants close by. This offers a lot of dining options. I saw breakfast was available at an additional cost. This is convenient wanting a quick meal. Several pubs are also close.

Location

10/10

The location is AMAZING, a five-minute walk to the beach. A bus stop right outside provides easy access to town. A 24-hour shop is also nearby. This makes late-night necessities accessible. This is very central.

Service

9/10

The staff was VERY helpful. They responded quickly to messages. I found them accommodating when I needed assistance. They maintained a clean and tidy environment. This added to the overall comfort of my stay.
