The hotel was great I was there 2 nights for work 27&28 Jan. I loved the bedroom, very comfortable and view was amazing. The food was great, cod and chips. Best I’ve have in a while and really enjoyed the breakfast. Best of all was the staff, in particular the young man that checked me in on the evening of the 27th he was also there for dinner and breakfast. Couldn’t have been more attentive and polite. I’d love to go back for a a holiday next time.

Great staff, very well-presented and well-maintained hotel. Genuinely one of the cleanest places I've stayed. Easy walk into town or to the beach. I'm not from the coast and it was wonderful to hear the sea at night.

The room was beautiful absolutely spotless. The staff were really lovely and very dog friendly would definately stay here again.
Breakfast was great, loads of options ...staff are absolutely lovely..helpful & super friendly. Room was gorgeous, newly refurbished with stunning sea view...fab stay!
I can't comment on breakfast as we didn't have any. The room was very clean and comfortable with the most amazing view of the sea. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The only negative was that the en-suite bathroom was very small. That said everything was in good condition and the shower was really good.

Clean, bright and the staff were super helpful. The view was amazing and despite the weather, it was a nice walk from the hotel to the beach. 10/10
Don't be put off by the grotty exterior or hostel-style reception area. It's very nice on the inside. All recently refurbished to a good spec. Staff very helpful and friendly. Great breakfast. Really good location.
Breakfast wasn’t free as per your question but we were happy to pay for the breakfast we had.
Free parking and spaces available.
Staff friendly, helpful and easy to chat to.
Room was clean for her all but a couple of things were noticed.
