really good stay!

local activities honesty bar interior design
The hosts offered amazing suggestions for local activities, including visits to kent caves and elton's bar for cocktails. An honesty bar inside the hotel allowed guests to mix their own drinks and mingle. The decor and interior design were clearly very well thought out, down to every detail.
the mattress was not comfortable and the pillows were too low for my preference.

helpful directions clean room uncomfortable mattress low pillows
Philip and Gary were helpful, I tell you. They knew everything about the area. They gave excellent directions. Philip even gave me a banana plant cutting for me to grow at home. I was so excited about that. The breakfast was very nice. It had many options. Our Luxury Double or Twin Room overlooked the sea. It had beautiful views and the room was also very clean.
The mattress was a bit uncomfortable for me. The pillows were too low for my liking. I found some hairs in the bed and bathroom. That was not ideal at all.
