mixed experience, some positives, some drawbacks
smelly room basic breakfast
the room smelled a little. i also found the breakfast quite basic. the croissants seemed like they came straight from a supermarket. i think they could improve this aspect.

Pleasant stay near the sea
friendly staff convenient arrangement soft towels spacious room
I found the staff very friendly and helpful. I secured a car parking space for £6 overnight, a convenient arrangement in a private lot opposite the hotel. The room was spacious and the beds felt very comfy. Soft towels were included, and the room featured its own bathroom.
The light outside was a bit too bright at night.

basic stay with some drawbacks
dated room cramped bathroom
The room was quite dated, something i found frustrating. the bathroom felt cramped. The toilet and shower were crammed into what was like a tiny cupboard. on-street parking proved difficult. I ended up parking a couple of streets away from the hotel, creating more issues than i hoped for
