The hotel is very clean and well maintained. It is perfectly located to wander along the sea front and the views from the hotel are lovely. The breakfast is superb with absolutely everything you could ask for, including cooked food. The rooms are very well maintained and the side sea view room was worth the extra cost. The staff were very friendly and helpful. This hotel will be a bolt hole for us in the future.
