a satisfactory visit
sea view warm welcome comfortable room limited menu expensive dinner poor breakfast
The hotel offered a room with a fine sea view. It was a superior double or twin room sea view. the sight of the sea coming in was fantastic. the staff showed warmth and kindness upon arrival.
The dinner menu seemed limited and expensive. I chose to dine out on both nights. breakfast was poor, with a limited range of options. the bacon was virtually raw.
