Stayed two nights in a Double Room with Sea View which had a nice view of the beach and pier; worth the upgrade. The room was a great size, tastefully decorated, kept clean and well equipped with amenities such as tea making facilities, hair dryer, desk fan, ironing facilities.
The room upgrade included breakfast; standard hotel buffet breakfast, plenty on offer, refreshed regularly, overall good value. Staff courteous and professional throughout the service.
Everything we asked from reception was granted efficiently.
Bath was very slippery, as they often are. There was a sign saying a bath mat is available if you ask at reception but I think this would be better provided by default.
Yes in some areas the hotel needs a bit of TLC but you have to understand that hospitality have had a horrendous few years for business and are likely in recovery/survival mode; give them a chance to recover first with a good season! A chipped veneer or two can wait!
Would definitely return.
