The hotel is very run down. The carpets are in terrible condition and looks like someone has died on them! The whole hotel needs a major renovation. Location is best thing about it - right next to the beach and train station.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Room was disgusting especially the curtains. They did change them, but I don't think they tried too hard to clean room. It still felt like there was sand in the carpet. The bed was really comfortable though and breakfast was lovely. They did change the fan when it broke. Most of the staff were pleasant enough. One hotel I will not be going back to.

Lovely hotel with excellent staff. The property is a little dated and could benefit from some refurbishment, but overall we had a pleasant stay. The only issue we experienced was parking on arrival, as there were no spaces available and we had plans for the day. However, the staff were extremely helpful, took my keys, and arranged to move the car as soon as a space became free. Their professionalism and willingness to help really made a difference.
