Solid stay, great location

friendly staff convenient location easy beach access reasonable parking

The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel's location is a short walk to the sea, perfect for beach access and walks. I found bus stops nearby for trips to surrounding areas. The parking fee was £5 for 24 hours, which I considered reasonable.

The television in the room was a bit unreliable. It was oddly slanted and didn't always work.
