decent stay with minor drawbacks

helpful staffcomplimentary juicequirky stylestairs absencemissing tvhigh bed
the staff were very helpful (i especially appreciated their local recommendations). we got complimentary orange juice each morning. the hotel has a unique, quirky style that i found quite charming.
the stairs were a bit of a challenge, as there is no lift. my room did not have a tv, a bit disappointing. the bed was quite high, i had to use a small stool to get onto it.

Really good Hospitality and Unique Charm

warm welcomequirky vibedelicious breakfastparking issue
I experienced such a warm welcome from the team. They were helpful. The atmosphere was like a home, not just a hotel. The hotel captures the seaside charm, it has a cool, quirky vibe. Breakfast was delicious and filling, it prepared me for the day.
I faced a parking issue. Finding a space was challenging. The on-street parking required a scratch card. My daughter dropped us off and had to move the car early.

The staff was lovely. John, THE dog, was a highlight! My room had amazing views over the harbour. I also enjoyed the complimentary orange juice in the mornings. It was a nice touch.
There were a lot of stairs, and no lift, which might be difficult for some guests.
