loose electrical socket minimal toiletries

the continental breakfast had healthy choices , and the location was spot on for the beach.

I felt the room was overpriced. THERE was a lack of attention to detail , for example , a loose electrical socket. minimal toiletries were provided . Just one small body wash for two people.

Good Stay at This Townhouse

book themed room great location delicious breakfast

I found a beautiful room, named after a book, a nice touch. The room contained the actual book beside the bed. The location worked well, close to attractions. Breakfast included fresh fruit salad and warm croissants with jams.

I did find that the bathroom handle was positioned too close to the door frame, which caused me to catch my hand when opening the door.

Location

9/10

The hotel boasts a prime location opposite the beach and is conveniently close to the town centre and transport links (a real advantage). This allows for easy access to various attractions and amenities.

lovely decor charming place

i found so many lovely details. the staff provided great tips for local restaurants. the room had lovely decor and was very clean. it was definitely a charming place.

the breakfast was continental and limited. the ham and cheese selection came pre-portioned in cling film. i think a bit more variety would make it better.

Excellent Stay with Thoughtful Touches

convenient access unique touch well-decorated room

The location was excellent, providing convenient access to the beach and nearby dining options (the pub was a real plus!). The room was well-decorated, very clean, and included bottled water and fresh milk. The hotel's theme of rooms named after books added a unique touch.

I found the room a bit overpriced for what it offered. I would have appreciated more attention to detail, like a coffee machine in the room.
