Excellent Location, Great Value
beach access large bathroom
The hotel is situated very close to the beach (less than a minute's walk). The room I had featured good tea and coffee facilities and a large bathroom. Free check-in at reception was efficient and straightforward, and the room was clean and spacious.
I found that the entrance via the side alleyway was not well lit at night, which could be a safety concern. The unlit alleyway created an unwelcoming feel when arriving at the hotel.
Location

This location benefits from immediate proximity to the beach, offering easy access. it allows convenient exploration of the town centre and other local attractions (I really appreciated how close it was to everything!).
Facilities
