A great place to stay!
Had an over night stay before we went on holiday. A lovely location, just 2 minutes from the beach. Guy Tony on reception was really helpful.
Would definitely stay again.

Good value & great location
We had the room with a private shower room which was nice and clean. Hotel was conveniently located with very helpful staff. The recommended pub for dinner was amazing. Sadly a rugby team were staying that night and were so disruptive and loud at 2am!!!

Very pleasant budget hotel. Parking was available but limited. Decent little hotel. A short walk to the scenic promenade. Emily on reception was brilliant and very helpful!
Only minor negative would be lack of blackout curtains.
Overall a great place to stay at a decent price!
