The hotel is at the perfect spot to go to the beach. The breakfast was cooked nicely. The rooms were dirty, leaking and mouldy. The beds were lumpy. We went as a large group of 14 adults.
Its not the worst hotel in the world for 3 star but the staff can be tricky, some are ok but some are a nightmare. The food is terrible and very overpriced, service is extremely slow and we actually had upset tummies after eating dinner in the hotel. Thankfully there are other places to eat in the town centre which is a 20 min walk away. Everything felt sticky, tables and chairs. The place needs a really good deep clean. Its located in a decent setting not far from the beach. Twin room was very small and dated but reasonably clean. Plumbing was noisy throughout the night. We didnt sleep well. Paid 170 for two night stay in August which isnt bad. Wish i had soent a bit more on a nicer place though in hindsight.

I wasnt expecting much as its a basic 3 star hotel. Great location and facilities available are good. Staff were not friendly but they were professional. The issues i had were my 6 year old daughter consuming out of date yoghurt and the manager saying she'll be alright its only a few days old. The yoghurt was 4 days out of date.

Although parking was tight with a bus in the way it worked. Service for drinks was generally slow.
Front desk support could have been more helpful.
The room was well kept and supplied.
I thought the restaurant area and outdoor pool was very nice,the rooms were clean but we didn't have an ironing board or iron,the beds were okay,pillows not very comfortable but mattress was quite firm. I wasn't impressed with the breakfast for a three star hotel,a bit basic and standard,nothing particularly stood out about it or the breakfast dining area.
First time staying here was amazing service and very friendly staff

Staff amazing
My friend and I went from Monday -Friday. On arriving the staff were lovely however got to the room and it was dark. My friend and I said if they had arranged the bedroom differently it wouldn’t have felt so dark. The heater in the bathroom was so dangerous. Also the whole hotel needed some TLC.
But the staff made up for the rest of it every member of staff was lovely.
Bedroom wasn’t particularly clean . All the doors were hanging off the drawers . Wall paper hanging off the wall . Doors banging all weekend no one had any consideration . Didn’t see a cleaner or maid all weekend . The swimming pool has scum across the top and the pool area was never checked during the day . The plastic empty glasses and cans blew about all day and for hours there were unattended towels on the sun beds which no body delt with. The inclusive evening meal was extremely limited with around 3/4 choices per main . The chicken was over cooked . The roast potatoes had been reheated and frozen veg wasn’t even cooked and still hard . We wanted to extend our stay for a few hours on the day we checked by parking our car on the onsite car park but the main behind reception admitted he didn’t want to help us with free parking even though we were paying guests for the weekend and the proceeded to charge us for a another couple of hours . Avoid hotel , the photos are old .
