A Balanced Stay

helpful staff kind staff perfect location easy access swift resolution quick solution limited parking breakfast exclusion missing bacon nearby carpark

The staff were helpful and kind. They greeted me with a smile each day. They resolved a small issue in my room quickly. The location was perfect for accessing town. I could also drive out easily without traffic problems.

Parking was limited when I arrived. I could unload the car at the front. The receptionist directed me to a nearby car park. Breakfast did not include bacon. This was disappointing as I like bacon with my breakfast..

Wonderful Seaside Birthday Getaway

helpful staff sea view friendly service

Caroline and Maria at reception were pretty good! They arranged balloons in our upgraded sea view room for my partner's birthday. The staff in the restaurant were cute at breakfast and wished my partner a happy birthday. Such friendly service made our mornings special. The sea view was beautiful!

The lift was quite small. Our family with luggage barely fit.
