Situated close to the beach around 15 mins walk and peace and quiet. Parking was a bit of a problem as to many cars and not enough space. Overall enjoyable and I’d definitely revisit again

The hotel was exactly what we needed—a room and a bed for the night. The location was perfect for our plans, which was a big plus. While the rooms felt a bit tired and could have been cleaner, overall, it was a good value for what we paid. A decent choice for a short stay.

A nice hotel that does the job
A convenient, cheap and cheerful hotel. Aesthetically it's a bit dated, but you get what you pay for. Reception and car staff are great. Rooms are clean and comfy enough. Free parking is good. But to have a clean, heated, quiet pool is great.
