    This place suits me perfectly, offering free parking, an indoor pool, and a bar/lounge area. The staff helped my elderly parents on my first stay, which I really appreciated. I will definitely return for Christmas!

    water pressure
    space inadequacies

    Indoor swimming pool, games room with table tennis and pool, easy access to local attractions.

    Inconsistent water pressure in showers can be frustrating!!! Bathrooms lack sufficient space for comfort. Improve maintenance of outdoor areas to enhance usability. Noise levels from entertainment can disturb the peace!!! Limited plug sockets in rooms cause inconvenience.

    great breakfast
    close beach
    inconsistent pressure

    Excellent breakfast options, with a range of vegan choices upon request. The location offers easy access to the beach, just a two-minute walk away, making it convenient for leisure activities.

    Room temperatures vary widely. the first night was uncomfortably warm due to hot radiator pipes, which improved significantly over subsequent nights. The shower pressure is inconsistent, with low pressure reported. Limited plug sockets could be problematic if you need to charge multiple devices, especially since mine were all on one wall. A fan in the room was available, but not ideal for everyone, and the Wi-Fi connection faltered regularly, making it tough to stay connected during my stay.

    Fantastic stay with lovely staff!

    We stayed for 3 nights and loved it! The staff were super friendly and always had smiles on. Breakfast was on point with tons of choices. The room was spacious and comfy. We enjoyed the pool every day. The only bummer was the pool area looked a bit tired but still fun to swim in.

    pleasant stay with a few minor issues

    The cleanliness of the rooms truly stood out throughout our stay. The location was ideal, just a quick walk to the beach, making it easy for our family to enjoy the seaside.

    The small twin room felt a bit cramped for our family.

    beach access
    friendly staff

    easy access to beach and charming local eateries

    During my stay, I appreciated how close the sandy beach was, just a few steps away, and the breakfast was spot on with everything you could wish for, beautifully presented and served by a lovely bunch of staff, making for a warm and inviting start to each day. it's perfect for a single traveler looking to enjoy walks through the city and park views, but the walls are quite thin, so it might be a little noisy at times.

    great location
    lack of towels
    inconvenient facilities

    The indoor swimming pool was a highlight for me 🏊! It was pristine and perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach. One downside was the lack of towels near the pool, which was a bit inconvenient.

    spacious family room
    delicious breakfast options
    leaking toilet
    inconsistent towel supply
    non-functioning wall light

    The family room was spacious with plenty of storage and TVs in both rooms, although one wall light was out for the entire stay. The breakfasts offered a variety of delicious options, and the pool was impressively sized, perfect for daily use. cleanliness issues arose with a leaking toilet and inconsistent towel supply, making the experience a bit less smooth than desired.
