"Booked a double room with sea view last minute and we were pleasantly surprised. The room was spacious, clean with a fantastic sea view and the reception staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is equally clean although a little dated and showing its age, however don’t let that put you off staying. For the price we paid it was great value plus parking for £2.50 until 11am the next day long the front. Despite no air con, the hotel had thoughtfully made the bed with a sheet only, with the duvet in the wardrobe should it be needed and a fan was also provided."
