    really good breakfast

    The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and provided ample hanging space. The breakfast options were excellent, ranging from freshly cooked full English to good pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. The hosts, Mandy and Malcolm, were really good.

    Perfectly clean hotel, loved to be really close to harbour with plenty of bars, the esplanade, and transport links and walking holidays thanks to magnificent and particularly good location. Reasonably large room with fantastic views, excellent staff - everything was first-class.

    shower pressure
    outdated decor

    The shower pressure was laughable, my whole hair washing was an epic fail! A complimentary snack upon check-in woudl ve been a pleasant surprise. Oh, and not to forget, the outdated decor was a true masterpiece from, like, 40 years ago. So glad I didn't recommend this place.

    Water pressure in the showers was consistently low. The need to pre-order breakfast the night before was a hassle, and the bathroom sizes in some rooms were on the smaller side, leading to some discomfort. Traffic noise from the road was noticeable, especially in front-facing rooms, which could disrupt a peaceful night's sleep.

    delicious breakfast
    difficult salt shaker

    I had a wonderful time with a spacious single room boasting a sea view, and the breakfast was fantastic, served hot and abundantly! Just a minor hiccup with the salt shaker though.

    Couldn't recommend more for strolling

    Spacious room, friendly hosts, offering complimentary parking, made exploring the area by foot very convenient, and the good breakfast selection included freshly made porridge that was a wonderful treat.

    Nothing could have been better.
