fantastic visit!!!

great location clean room good shower
the location was fantastic, close to the seafront. my room was well decorated. it felt clean and fresh!!! i got tea and coffee facilities and a good shower too. i would definitely stay again for such a good price.
the wifi didn't reach my room, and there was no signal, so i had to go downstairs to send a message. it was a minor inconvenience, but hopefully, it's fixed soon.

Acceptable Stay with Issues

cold room inadequate heating
The staff were friendly enough.
The room was pretty cold. I arrived and found the windows wide open and the radiator was off. It took forever to warm the place up. The pub's heating system seemed connected to the rooms, so my room got really cold when the pub shut down.

barking dogs tasteless sauce
i found some real issues . other guests had dogs that barked constantly in the evening whenever anyone walked by. it felt more like a kennel than a hotel. at breakfast, i saw two massive dogs with their heads resting right on the table, which i found unhygienic. also, my eggs benedict had perfect eggs but the sauce was bland and lukewarm. the hard toast was a poor substitute for brioche rolls too.
