Room was fine, radiator not working in the bathroom, reported and it was sorted, but didn’t work the next day??
Carpet worn and dated. Breakfast menu choice good, fresh fruit bowl not good!
Breakfast lady very nice. Breakfast room cold. Receptionist friendly on checkin, but people don’t like to be called ‘my lovely’. A hello or good morning would also be nice when going through reception.
Very strange that in spite of reporting that there was no plug in the wash basin the night before nothing had been done and so even basic washing was impossible!

Rooms are tired and dated. Not much storage for clothes. Bathroom floor gets drenched from a shower. Walls are paper thin and could hear everything from the drunk. Staff offered to talk to them but could not move us easily as a wedding was on. Breakfast is good

All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were spotless and cleaned every day, including fresh bed linen. The food was delicious. We had a large room with a sea view, which was wonderful to wake up to.
Staff made the stay that extra special, they all were so friendly and very helpful, room was great with nice view of the sea and lights from the docks, room was very warm but nice and clean, huge comfortable bed and fresh water bottles each day were provided, along with tea and coffee. The meals were amazing especially the steak meal which was a real credit to the chef. We certainly would love to stay at the hotel again and soon.
