The location was excellent, just opposite the Venetian Waterways, so I could watch ducks and geese! Free car parking was a great bonus, very useful. The staff were friendly, they were really helpful too.
The bar wasn't always open, apart from on one occasion.

Wonderful Seaside Stay

The owner, Justin, greeted me warmly. He even allowed an early check-in. I had a lovely room with an amazing sea view. The room was clean and had comfy beds, so I rested well (I think the sea air helped!).

Justin. I thought the location was great and it is a lovely hotel with lots of potential. I found the hotel clean, warm and comfortable and an extra heater was in our room before check in.
I felt little cheated. They greeted us with a £5 surcharge for towels that I did not need. Later, they pursued us for the £5. I did pay the surcharge but did not get any towels. I had to search for spare toilet paper because they provided so little in the room.
