It was a comfortable stay, but it looks like the hotel attracts a clientèle of a different age group. There were bingo nights and entertainment happening several nights during my stay.
I really enjoyed using the pool but did not eat in.
Check in was slow as no one available but he was lovely when arruved. Check out lady coukdve had more of a personality. Shame that scaffolding was being put up so no lay in. Great location though, clean room. Shame couldnt book hot tub and pool as night manager was unhelpful.
Hotel is having a refit at the moment, not a big problem .
Hotels in need of a general overhaul, bits and pieces need doing in and around the rooms.
Breakfast was ok.
Staff were welcoming and knowledgeable. The hotel is in an excellent location and was easy to get to using public transport. My son enjoyed the bunk beds in the family room and tea/coffee etc were replenished daily. The pool and jacuzzi were great.
Nice hotel, close to the centre and an easy walk to the beach. Very clean. A bit dated in areas - but nothing to worry about.
Tip - if you are using the pool bring flip flops and a robe as the changing rooms are down some stairs and are a bit cold - this way yiu could just straight from/to your room.

It’s a beautiful hotel at an amazing location. Loved the room and my favourite part about the stay was the pool and jacuzzi, just fab!! However, the breakfast was terrible- we were hoping for a buffet but they gave us a single plate of vegetarian breakfast- had very less options in food and it was very oily! Stay here however, have breakfast at a local cafe next door as there are many many options outside.
