Romantic Escape by the Harbour

Breakfast included high-quality local ingredients. It was a treat each morning. Our room, the Beautiful Suite Sea View, offered ample space, good bedding, and wonderful views of the water! The hotel is located conveniently. Local shops and restaurants are all within walking distance. The staff demonstrated sincere friendliness and professionalism. I felt very welcomed.
Parking availability proved slightly challenging upon arrival as the front space was occupied.

Quay view delight

The location proved perfect, directly on the quay with a wonderful view. The room included a cloud-like bed, a cozy quilt, and soft pillows. Polite, friendly, and helpful staff contributed greatly to a nice stay. They were all bilingual. The beach and the main street are a short walk away from the hotel.
Parking posed a slight challenge. There was limited space at the front, unavailable upon my arrival. I did notice a full ashtray with cigarettes near the hotel entrance.

Really good stay by the quay

The location offered convenient access to local cafes and pubs. It was a short walk. The apartment was very clean and well kept. The harbor view added to the experience. All staff provided service that was so good.
I found the kitchen facilities somewhat lacking for a self-catering setup. The dining table felt too small for the stated capacity of the apartment, it made meals a little difficult.

The location proved convenient. Parking was available right outside. I found the room spotlessly clean. The hotel featured local art on the walls.
The room was cold and drafty. One of the lights did not work. I also felt the bedding did not feel fresh.

The staff were pleasant and helpful.
Dinner did not meet expectations from my previous visit. The risotto was not good and the bread, although tasty, was dry. The menu seemed tired and expensive at £80 for two.
