"Ok Hotel but I feel they are being dishonest towards their customers by still advertising their pool (main reason I chos"

4.0

Close location to shops and beach

Pools have been closed for maintenance for months (but still actively advertising that they have a pool). Very Loud air circulating system in every room that you can’t turn off. Uncomfortable bedding (e.g duvet is not in a duvet cover but wrapped into two top sheets)

The rooms were extremely functional and had everything we needed.

It would’ve been better if the pool and hot tub were working. Also, if there were apps for streaming services like Netflix, the Wi-Fi was a bit slow and difficult to use.

"Great stay for the family."

9.0

Close to town, living area in the middle.

Parking. Would be good to make it really clear in the listing that there is no parking and that only option is Wilson car park paid parking. A clothes horse for drying clothes inside would also be a great addition.

"disappointing that management did not advised that the pool would not be working before we got there"

4.0

Great view

No staff at checkin when we arrived -waited 20 mins till someone arrived. Pool not working 2nd visit in a row. No disabled parking out front (removed since previous visit). All looking a bit shabby. Only 1 chair in the room.
