i found the location to be quite convenient to get to the town centre. the room i had was basic, yet acceptably clean. my room faced the sea and provided a beautiful view (i did enjoy that a lot).
the shower's water pressure was unfortunately very low. it barely produced a trickle of water (it wasn't a good experience).

My room had a sea view. The free room upgrade was a very nice surprise. The breakfast service was great and it. I will book here again for sure.
The shower had low water pressure and could use an update. This made showering somewhat difficult. The pillows also felt pretty solid.

I found the hotel in an AMAZING location, close to the train station and town. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially at reception. I appreciated that I could park at the front. They also offer a garage to the rear. The room was clean, and the sea view was lovely!
The pillows were a bit too plump for my liking.

The hotel benefits from easy access by trains and buses, overlooking one of the fantastic beaches. It is a short walk downhill to the town and train station. The setting is superb with a SEAVIEW.
Facilities

The hotel provides space for approximately six cars across the front, offering limited onsite parking. Guests can find additional parking in a garage, though spaces are limited, and it requires a short walk. The stairs was recently painted, showcasing ongoing refurbishment.

The breakfast has good choices everyday, with polite and efficient waiting staff. The food had good choices, expertly delivered, with new towels and tea and coffee replenished. A chef received congratulations for her food from myself.
