Excellent Stay by the Sea

free parkingfriendly staffgood size room
The hotel's location directly opposite the beach was fantastic. I secured a free parking spot behind the hotel, a great bonus. All the staff I encountered were happy, friendly, and helpful.. their politeness added to my positive experience. The room itself was super clean and of a good size. Tea and coffee amenities were available, I found this useful.
The plumbing was quite loud at times, particularly when others used water facilities early in the morning.

Comfortable Stay with Minor Hiccups

ample choicehelpful staffspacious roomlumpy pillow
The breakfast provided ample choice. It suited my schedule well. The staff were very helpful, and they tried their best to fulfill requests. The room I had was spacious. It included a decent bed and pillows. I found the room well-equipped for my needs, too.
the shower lacked power. I noticed the top pillow was somewhat lumpy. This detracted slightly from an otherwise comfortable experience. I hope the hotel addresses this issue.
