4/10 Fair

See no sea
I paid extra for a sea view. I booked this hotel 8 months before travelling. Once we arrived we were told oh sorry we have had to put you all the way down there out of the way in the small room? We are juat fully booked. Got to the room, which was indeed very separate from the rest of the rooms in the hotel, it was quite small but comfortable but there was no sea view. I was very upset since I had paid extra for that luxury. I felt cheated. The sea view rooms you see when booking the room is not what I got at all.

6/10 Good

The room was incredibly small we could barely walk around the bed to get to the bathroom, there was very little room for suitcases as there was only 1 bench for a single suitcase. The ocean view was of the parking lot, the road and then the ocean so their pics on line are very deceiving. Very expensive by Canadian standards. The pool closed by 9pm so we didnt get to use it.

6/10 Good

The hotel was good, but the only problem I had is that the staff at the restaurant, made us stand and wait for quite a while, as they cleaned up tables. There were lots of other tables that we could of sat at, but we had to wait and wait. Probably for about 5 minutes, which seemed a long time. The waitress wasn't very nice. But we did notice another head waitress which was very nice to the new staff.

So many great things about this hotel
Great hotel in a stunning location with even more stunning views. Lovely pool and breakfast looking over the sea was spectacular. Bathroom was new and rooms nice, but its an older hotel so parts of it were a bit shabby. Great staff, entertainment, pool area were fab!
Breakfast views
The Romans, Vikings and English couldn’t get this far to defat the Scots!

Although our De-lux room was a bit dark and unwelcoming; it was well appointed and adjacent to residents seaview lounge area. However; top marks to both Expedia & Bay Hotel for their speedy and very reasonable consideration ie refund- due to health issue resulting in early return home.

My husband said the meal we had at high tea was the best food he has ever ate in his life! I would agree the food at dinner and breakfast was exceptional. Staff so friendly and helpful. Only issue was the air conditioner system and the bed wasnt very comfy. Minor though and we had an excellent stay. Cant wait to come back!

Not worth the cost
Rooms are cramped so little space for 2 suitcases. The pool was closed. The view was nice but not great . The beds have coil springs which you feel and they are noisy
