We were in room 5 it was a little dark in there because of the trees outside of the picture window and the room lighting was a little poor because of the lights had silly basket shades on which stopped the light coming out. The shower head spread water to much and there wasn’t anywhere to put your shower gel on a shelf in there and no where to hang your towel outside the cubicle

Very close to the beach and shops. Parking is tight but manageable. Staff friendly. Good variety for breakfast, but ask if you like eggs runny as they are well overcooked.

The room we were allocated was very small for us with a dog (classed as a comfy room). This was the room the hotel imformed us was what Expedia told them we had booked.???? Other than that the hotel is fantastic. Close to the shops,beach,restaurants and parking on site (free) The swimming pool was great ,the bar was warm and friendly, the staff warm,friendly and helpful . Would definitely go back to this hotel but would book a large room because of our dog..
