Poor maintenance

The maintenance of the room was poor. The 1st room was so hot I couldn’t stay because they couldn’t change the setting. So I was upgraded to the Bath Suite where the radiators didn’t work and there was a small fan heater, so they must know. The lights were flashing took me ages to get them to stop. I didn’t want to move again so I managed to get the lights off. Just poor maintenance. I ate in restaurant the food is nice and the service was good. I will stay again as it works for me for work but they need to do some maintenance on the rooms and get basics like heating working.

Good overnight stop

We weren’t there for long as just an overnight stop. Staff all seemed very nice. The mattress in the room was way too soft and could feel springs. Bar is great but did close early due to it being quiet. Only went for a small double room due to length of stay. Great value

Lovely January stay

From reception to Maggie at breakfast and the restaurant staff, everyone was very welcoming and helpful. The double room was a good size, kept very warm (which was welcome given the cold January snap) and the bed comfortableThe room overlooked the outdoor eating area - January so no business there - and the kitchen roof with its extraction unit - which started around 7:30 am. Breakfast was well cooked and the flexibility given dietary issues was very welcome. The on-site parking was usually available (again January visit so not too busy).

Impressive hotel but a little tired

Lovely location on top of cliffs overlooking the sea and car parking was on site and easy. Hotel looking a little tired in places. Our room was clean and spacious and the bed was comfy but the heating was on full blast and we couldn't control it. Sleeping was difficult because of the heat and in the bathroom the radiator was so hot that I burned my back on it!
