Good Points: Close to town centre. View of the sea.
Bad Points: Shabby.Not confident in the cleanliness. Cold. Extra bedding was a hairy banket. Shower was poor. T.V. Outdated. No telephone. Furniture in a worn-out state. Needs a severe facelift.
Further Comments: Very badly maintained hotel. Felt like changing hotels when we say our room. A good B&B would have provided a better service.

Good Points: The room sizes are good, and we had a great view of the sea. Good location. Comfortable bed and pillows.
Bad Points: The facilities were very basic. The TV was a small portable on the wall, and picture was fuzzy. I would at least expect clear pictures and ideally Sky. The noise from around the hotel was clearly audible. The bathroom was horrible. There was a large space next to the basin that could easily have housed a cupboard to provide more surface for toiletries. As it was, we had to cram our toothbrushes etc behind the taps. The taps were those old fashioned separates, instead of the more common mixers, which is a bit difficult for children.

Good Points: The hotel was close to the BIC, sea, restaurants and town centre. The bridal suite was very spacious with a lovely sea view.
Further Comments: The location was great for the BIC, sea, restaurants and town centre. The bridal suite was spacious with huge windows and a lovely view of the garden and sea. The jacuzzi and basin were situated in the bedroom, which maybe slightly intimate for a 'first time couple'! The bar is quite small and was not well stocked but the hotel was not busy during our visit. As in many seaside resorts, the hotel is quite old and looked a bit tired in places but was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and polite.

Good Points: Location
Bad Points: Non working appliances, general decor of room, not thrroughly cleaned from previous occupant.
Further Comments: Sadly upon arrival, we had booked a no somking room, the room we stayed in although stating no smoking, smelled strongly of smoke, the re was an empty beer can on top of the four poster bed and the Television set was not recieving any television channels. The location of the Hotel was good for access to the beach as the weather as nice, however we felt that the hotel needed to be re-decorated to make it a little more modern,

Good Points: It was ideally situated for the BIC, which was the purpose of my visit. The staff were friendly and efficient. Though the surroundings were quite homely, I also felt they were a little dated and the whole place could do with a facelift, comfortable beds and a good breakfast, but the room was quite cold. Overall a comfortable visit.
Bad Points: The hotel is a little outdated and the room though pleasant, was cold.
