Stayed here a few times now, the hotel is kept clean by a great team, nice to see the same staff faces. Didn't get much of a chance to use the pool area, but that was also kept clean. Breakfast the same as always, no change in items, but enjoyed what we had. Will stay again.

Good hotel
Spotlessly clean.
Large pool area, could be improved with more umbrellas for shade but great large pool
Good breakfast
On main road, some traffic noise during the day
10 minute walk to the beach
Limited bar times, so having tea & coffee facilties and mini fridge in rooms would make a difference
Staff all very helpful and friendly

Friendly staff, clean hotel
The hotel is very clean, all staff are friendly, and always helpful.
The only issued was the fridge hire, the fridges are really small and not cold enough apart from that, it is a really nice hotel and will definitely stay there again. I highly recommend this hotel.

Just returned from a 3 night very enjoyable stay.
It’s conveniently located if you want to visit other locations and only 8-10 minutes walk to the sea which had plenty of places to eat or sit and watch the gorgeous sunsets even in November
It’s a reasonable priced hotel with parking and included continental breakfast which was an added bonus
Our room was as shown on the website, very clean and comfortable bed, which was made up every day and towels changed
In general the hotel was spotless.
We didn’t use the pool although it was sunny it wasn’t
The hotel does have a restaurant but as it is quiet at this time of year it wasn’t open, the bar was and we did pop in the evenings prices were very reasonable.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful they gave us some good choices of restaurants to try.
