The hotel is very run down, in need of updating. We had two mismatched taps that didn’t work. The breakfast is horrible everything out of a can…they say grilled tomatoes but they served canned chopped tomatoes, the bread was plain sliced bead, the fruit was canned grapefruit.
Great views but it takes more than vies to make a stay pleasant….do not recommend this hotel.

Hotel is a little dated but excellent value, staff are friendly excellent view of the Sea from our room. happy with stay.
A comfortable hotel with a really lovely relaxed atmosphere. A great place ro chill out. Fantastic views. A good base to see local attractions and sites.
We really enjoyed our stay. The view from the common areas was fabulous. The room was smaller but very clean and cosy. We enjoyed dinner and breakfasthere and the staff were friendly and helpful.
Ive never reveiwed a hotel in all my years of working away but this time ive made an exception. The owner is extremely RUDE. Me and my colleague ordered food to the hotel because all the hotel was serving on this particular night was pizza, which we didnt want. Soon as our food arrived the owner burst into the bar "whos ordered from deliveroo? To which we replied it is us whos ordered. He very abruptly told us we could not eat food in the hotel and we would have to eat this outside because he is not VAT registered?(never heard that before) he cannot allow food from outside the hotel on his premises. Which would of been fine if he would of just told us in a calm manner we would of just eaten it in our vehicles. We was planning on just going to our rooms anyway with the food.
In all my years of stopping in hotels for work this is the only hotel thats not allowed food into there hotel. Had the owner of just been polite then i wouldnt be writing this review.
To add- The delivery driver also said hes been very abusive in the past towards his own customer's and delivery drivers and there have been times where the delivery drivers have been thrown out the hotel.
My stay:
I would say below basic room with a tiny bath. 2/10 for cleanliness- hair all over the bathroom and bed. The shower was dismal no pressure at all. Toilet was broken-leaking water. VERY dated/boring hotel. Got lots of potential unfortunately.
Pros: great views
