fantastic locationwarm welcomeclean roomrude staffunhelpful servicedelayed access
The hotel has a fantastic location for trips to the pier. The receptionist warmly welcomed me upon arrival and provided all necessary details. My room was very clean and well decorated... It was also a great size for my needs.
The staff on reception seemed rude and unhelpful. I had requested an early room prior to arrival because I needed to change for a wedding. The receptionist said all rooms were full, and I had to wait until three. I had to change quickly in disabled toilets because no room was ready.

I received a complimentary upgrade. I enjoyed a large room. The room included a view of the coast and park area. The bed was very comfy with excellent pillows. I slept wonderfully.
The housekeeping was not great. I had to buy milk outside. I had to collect toilet rolls from reception. The room could have used a vacuuming, as I stayed for four days.

I adored the spacious rooms with a classic, good decoration. Public areas felt ample and grand. I appreciated the staff. So kind and very helpful. It felt nice to find organic friendly shampoo and shower gel.
My radiator was not adjustable at all. It felt stuck in one temperature. the single bed had wheels, so it moved across the floor easily.
