Great value stay near the beach

comfortable bedclean bathroomcold corridor

I stayed one night after travelling to a match. The room was clean and looked recently decorated.. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was clean. Its location near the beach allowed for easy access to many dining options.

Walking down the corridors, i felt a chill. Upon entering the room, it felt very cold. It could be better if heating worked properly.

the menu in the pub offered tasty choices, and the Sunday dinner sounded delicious. note that the kitchen closes relatively early, so plan your meals accordingly. i wish the Sunday dinner had been a bit warmer.
