The room was large and offered space for luggage storage in both the bedroom and bathroom. I found it convenient that the window could be opened while maintaining a quiet environment.
The reception area had lighting that seemed insufficient.

The location is convenient to the seaside and the town centre. Free parking is available after registering the car at reception. The room provided a view of the sea and sunset.
The room became very hot and the temperature was hard to control. The tea and coffee were of poor quality. Breakfast quality was also poor.
