Quite an expense
Liked: The staff were very friendly and helpful. The wi-fi was good. The room was very spacious. The view from the terrace is lovely. The setting for breakfast is also very nice. The shower was easy to operate. The car park is large.
Disliked: We had asked for a double bed so were disappointed to be given twin beds, even though the room was larger than expected with a terrace. When we questioned this, we were told it was because the room allocated to us had suffered damage and no other room was available, but it did seem quite a coincidence that before arriving we had suddenly been offered an upgrade to a twin bedded room with a terrace for an extra £300. We had rejected this because we wanted a double bed, but if we had accepted we would have paid all that extra money for a room that was actually the only room available and so given to us for free! Another disappointment was that there were ants in the room. We reported this and action is being taken. Also, the tea and coffee at breakfast were rather tepid, not piping hot.

Beach side hotel with excellent...
Liked: The location of this hotel is brilliant, right on the beach! It's also been refurbished and the rooms are really comfortable and stylish. I loved the bathroom and its black fittings. Was also worth paying extra for the sea view. The bed and pillows were good quality. Staff were friendly and welcoming.
Disliked: The terrace for drinks was beautiful but it was a confusing system of ordering (at some times you could order via staff and other times you had to queue up inside and there it took ages). It wasn't clear what you had to do. Being able to order from staff outside would be more efficient and pleasurable. The drinks menu could be better - some local beers and drinks, and more non-alcoholic beers and some mocktails. It would be great to see a local independent hotel like this serve more local drinks and locally sourced food.The meal in the restaurant was fine but not worth the price tag - choice was a bit limited (especially for vegetarians) and the quality wasn't quite what the price would suggest.

the refurbishment is excellent and...
Liked: room
Disliked: Being asked to pay on arrival because I was "only B&B" and then on leaving being asked for £2 for the newspaper they had forgotten to put on the bill.Whilst at breakfast the room was entered by staff and made ready for the next guest and all our personal item we had left lying around put on the.bed. I thought the room was ours until we left.
