Breakfast disappointing
My husband was disappointed that they didn't offer a cooked breakfast. The room was clean and well presented. It did have a very noisy floor, squeaky.

Very pleasant and welcoming stay.
Had a lovely pleasant stay. Had a very welcoming experience from the owner who seemed genuinely pleased to see us. Gave us all the information we needed and showed us to our room. The room was immaculately clean and very spacious, as was the en-suite. Breakfast was an abundance of fresh yoghurt, pastries, cheeses and cereals. Hot tea and coffee with crumpets, toast etc. would definitely recommend and we will stay again.

Excellent but..
It's a great hotel in a quiet location very close to the beach. The host was excellent - very informative, helpful & friendly. Everything was clean. The breakfast, whilst continental, was plentiful.
The only downside was that the bed was so soft it was difficult to sleep that and a very thick quilt. If you like a soft mattress then fine but we prefer firm ones.
