“This is a classic seaside hotel, updated with modern touches-and mercifully, dog-friendly rooms with sea views. I especially like that the restaurant emphasizes locally sourced food; that speaks to a commitment to the area. For a special event, the function rooms here could be a draw, accommodating up to 150 guests.”

friendly staff sea view bathroom cobweb dirty carpet
The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel offers lovely sea view rooms, a comfortable bed, and good food.
I was DISAPPOINTED to find a cobweb in the bathroom when I arrived. The carpet in the room clearly had not been vacuumed, and this. I reported it to reception immediately.
