charming stay near the sea

matched range blackout curtains
the room had carefully chosen furniture that met my needs well. both the bedroom and bathroom were comfortably warm. the blackout curtains blocked all light from outside (i really needed this!). the provided towels were also of high quality.
the alleyway leading to the front door of the building was unlit. this made it a bit uninviting.
Rooms
9/10
the double room included a private bathroom. the room provided a comfortable and private space. the space had a fridge for storing drinks and snacks. it had all the basic amenities for a great stay.
Dining
8/10
there were many local shops and restaurants nearby the building. it was easy to find diverse dining options. the restaurants offer various cuisines (from traditional british to international dishes).
Location
10/10
the location was close to the seafront and pier. it was very convenient for exploring the coastal area. the building is located near a busy street with shops. this means it is easy to access different amenities.
Service

satisfactory stay

sea front town room size friendly staff unmanned lobby cold corridor night noise
the location is very close to the sea front and town. the room was a perfect size for two people. the staff were friendly and accommodating .
the hotel lobby is unmanned and feels quite empty. the corridors felt windy, cold, and not very inviting. there was noise outside from people at night.
