The room had a big, comfortable bed i slept soundly in. the shower was spacious with multiple settings for water pressure. the staff were genuinely friendly. They provided a late check-out upon request. the hotel's cleanliness impressed me greatly.
the parking fee cost £10 per night a charge i found unexpectedly high.

fantastic stay

clean roommodern decorbreakfast selection
i enjoyed the very clean and modern decor. the owners were fantastic and really helpful. i liked that the bathroom was the best i've ever had (it felt spacious!). the staff was also helpful and friendly.
i wasn't told anything about breakfast at check-in. the selection was not great, especially for kids (i think yoghurts or croissants would be a nice addition). there were not enough tea and coffee supplies in the room either.
Service

the male receptionist was very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. the housekeeper gave us a tour of the room upon arrival and explained everything. overall, the staff were attentive and made sure we had everything we needed.
Dining

the bar area provided plenty of drink options, even though i didn't use it much. the breakfast area was clean, however the breakfast choices themselves were limited. i think adding more variety could improve this.
Location

the hotel is close to the sea front and shops. the surrounding area was quiet, which i appreciated (especially at night!). a short walk gets you to the tower, beach front, and coral island.

The hotel is close to several attractions. The promenade is a short walk away. Coral Island, along with other local spots, are easily accessible. This makes it convenient for sightseeing.
