Night out with the Boys

Arrived at 2:30 pm and couldn’t check in due to no rooms available (a bit disappointed as I needed to get changed before meeting the boys at 3:00 pm. Managed to get a car parking spot which was good, as limited parking. Hotel clean same as my room which was quite basic but had a good shower.

Nice food, room too hot!

Staff very friendly, breakfast was really good. Would have loved bigger portions for hot breakfast as so good. Room however was very hot, even after turning burning hot radiator off and opening window as much as we could. Could not turn bathroom radiator off so still kept room very warm.

1st room I checked onto was the size of a student dogs. Poor quality throughout and not worth the money. Reception changed the room, and whilst better was equally rum down. Could feel the springs in the bed which made for a rough night's sleep. Room was also extremely hot. Has the chicken gyro at dinner and sent it back, chicken was not cooked through. Overall the place is on dire need of an upgrade. I travel regularly and base my choice on the reviews, this place does not deserve anything near what is stated.

Very hospitable staff, especially Robert on the front desk. Very easy to find, very good parking and the hotels overall look is quite a nice one. My sea view room was like being in a bedroom of your very own and it was nice warm and cosy with the sound of the sea at the window. Breakfast was extremely nice, you alway expect a nice breakfast but this one exceeded my expectations. Overall a very good hotel and very nice stay, only critique I have and it’s not a big deal but I was on the first floor next to the stairs so a lot of foot traffic and you can hear pretty much everything on going on downstairs until the last person goes to bed or ends shift.

My bedroom 109 was I think above the kitchen so heard noises from the kitchen activities. The shower bifold door hinge was broken so the magnetic strips never worked in properly closing the shower doors. The room was comfortable with a single bed and we'll heated. The food was excellent, including the main meals and my 2 breakfasts. The kippers were to die for!...beautiful oily fish... wonderful way to start the day!! I would recommend the hotel and I would come again.

Not the greatest but ok

A rather dated hotel but value for mo rat was fine. Creaky floor boards which meant you heard lots of movement so not a great sleep. In the morning at breakfast the kitchen and waitress were talking on and swearing which was very disappointing. The setting of the hotel is very good
