Great sea view room. Comfy bed. Represented great value for money. Contactless reception with code access is a little inconvenient, especially for work travellers like myself. Carrying mini suitcase, laptop bag etc. Would recommend and stay again.

Clean tidy room with comfortable beds, all pretty basic but fine for the night. Communication was really good. Codes for doors worked well. Only issue was a wobbly loo seat!
