Anonymous, Feb 2018
Pros (+) Location good & a sea view from a small dirty window at an over inflated price. Non-sea view rooms tiny & pokey! Good to have tried a short stay here but the hotel lacks a great deal.
Cons (-) Evening dinner food was average. Some very interesting staff in the dining room - quite scary at times. We were served by a lady who clearly had had a drink & the smell of cigarettes as she came close was horrible. The room was tidy & surface clean but on closer inspection needed CLEANING!!
