"More Fawlty Towers than Trump Towers"

6.0

Good location. Friendly staff, on the whole.

Limited food choice, and the kitchen team needs a bit more oomph. Sausages at breakfast - pink fingers unbrowned and unloved - were a disgrace. Poor bathroom layout, with the usual English shower; the dribbling of a geriatric poodle would get you wetter quicker, and the bath drainage was unable even to cope with that, leaving you up to your ankles in dirty water before you’ve finished the shower. Front of house staff saved this from being the worst review I have ever written.

Breakfast good but a bit slow to top up things when they ran out.Excellent location right on the beach and the room was nice and quiet.

The hot water took ages to warm up.
