inviting loungespacious bedroomshort walksuitable choice

i found the dining room and lounge area inviting. the double bedroom i stayed in was spacious with good facilities. the location was quiet but still a short walk to the seafront. breakfast was a jewel in the crown, offering choices that suited my needs.

i noticed the cold water pressure in the shower was not very strong. it. a stronger water flow would be more refreshing.

The free parking was really convenient. I found a spot easily.

The room smelled strongly of stale smoke, pretty off-putting. the shower temperature was erratic. It alternated between scalding hot and freezing cold, made showering rather unpleasant.

The breakfast offered plenty of choices! I liked that I could use the lounge. I could even bring in food to eat if I wanted. Parking was good and relatives weren't far away!!!

The room was a bit worn. It was not as clean as I expected for the price.
