Friendly and good value hotel

Frequent bus service means you can save money staying at this hotel, mid way between the steam and electric railways, but still enjoy everything the island has to offer. As others have said, walls are thin so bring ear plugs. Also bear in mind if you’re bringing suitcases that there are no lifts. Wonderful welcome and friendly staff.

Had a great stay here. The room was simple, but had a great shower. Food was great - I'm not normally a breakfast person, but thoroughly enjoyed the cooked breakfast each morning. They have a nice outdoor spot to sit in the sun as well. There's a motorcycle bay out on the prom in front, no trouble getting a spot though visited at a quiet time so YMMV. Short walk into the main town, well placed.
