Dated hotel. Room was spacious but not particularly clean. Hotel needs modernising. We also experienced people going through the bins after returning from an evening out. Staff were rude and unhelpful. Would not recommend.

Great location, close to beach

The location is excellent, 5 minutes from the beach and close to the town centre. The hotel was comfortable and clean, the room was spacious and had air conditioning and the hotel had friendly staff who helped us get a taxi back to the train station after our trip. Although on this trip we did not use many of the hotels amenities, we will be back to stay again.

The hotel was great very big and spacious, wonderful staff including the cleaning crew who did our room. Breakfast was buffet full english with cereals pastries and fruit options. The only down side for our stay was the pool is smaller than the photos lead you to believe and the lift is always busy (but this isnt anything the gotel can do anything about) theres 4 floors and alot of guests. Neither of this things stopped us enjoying our nreak away ..we were on the top floor in a family room and thoroughly enjoyed our stay Theres a lovely walk to the beach and we could even see the sea from our window

From arriving and having the most helpful receptionist was a great start. The room was lovely and clean as was the bathroom. The sauna and steam room were so relaxing along with a swim in the pool. The location is great and close to the beach.
