Really good stay

convenient parkingquality toiletriesexcellent bacon
i found the parking convenient. there were complimentary quality toiletries in the room i used. The breakfast featured bacon that impressed me greatly. the hotel location allowed easy access to local attractions while maintaining a quiet atmosphere in evenings.
the shower water pressure was slightly lower than i prefer.

the hotel offers parking on the premises, which allowed me to easily park my car and explore the area WITHOUT worry. i also saw a well-kept garden area providing a calm space. There are easily-accessible vending machines in the lobby for quick snacks and drinks.
Dining
10/10
the breakfast service starts promptly at 7:30 am . i noted that the dining area includes seating for up to thirty guests. fresh, locally sourced ingredients are used in preparing the meals each day.
Location

the hotel is situated within walking distance of several local shops and restaurants. i observed that the seafront is about a ten-minute walk. The hotel also benefits from being set back from the main road, reducing traffic noise.

adequate stay , but some issues present

decent breakfastnoise levelalternative parking
the breakfast was acceptable , it provided a decent start to the day.
I found the noise level disruptive. I could hear conversations and movement from adjacent rooms quite clearly. this lack of soundproofing impacted my ability to rest properly. the advertised parking was fully occupied upon my arrival , requiring me to seek alternative parking a distance away. this added inconvenience was not what i anticipated.

some issues

uncomfortable bednoisy guests
The bed in the "twin room" felt lumpy. It wasn't a great start. also, some other guests were noisy late one night. i heard doors slamming and raised voices. I found it hard to relax (i'm not sure if it's a regular problem, but it affected my stay). darren did say something about speaking to them, but i was already leaving.

jo and darren are really good hosts. my room was the superior superking or twin room 1 and it featured thoughtful touches, like a nespresso coffee maker. breakfast offered a wide selection, and it was always cooked perfectly, i had eggs benedict one morning and it was cooked just right.
the walk to the seafront took slightly longer than expected one afternoon.
