sea view room bliss!
sea front friendly host helpful advice
the location is seriously fantastic! i enjoyed direct access to the sea front, made morning walks easy. the hosts were super cute and were really good, offering assistance and helpful advice when i needed it.
i found the room a little stuffy since the window didn't open for fresh air.

stuffy room bike storage
The location was acceptable. It faced the prom.
The room felt stuffy. I could not open the window. this lack of fresh air was quite annoying. also, the owner could have been more helpful with bike storage. I had nowhere to lock it.
