I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, just a stone's throw away from the pier yet still quiet enough for a peaceful retreat. The rooms are cozy, complete with a bath for ultimate relaxation. The service was top-notch, making me feel truly valued as a guest. The dining experience, especially trying the delicious fried oysters, was a highlight. Although the facilities were great, I found the Wi-Fi connection a bit spotty. Overall, a wonderful experience with excellent value for money.

The hotel had a prime location, just off the seafront, very close to the pier yet still quiet. The rooms were equipped with a fridge and microwave, offering a bath at the end of October. The service was top-notch and the price felt just right. However, the dining experience lacked appetizers and the facilities were somewhat basic.
