Run down hotel
we booked a double room only to be told that they were all taken so had to make do with a poky twin, other families had the same problem, we booked the hotel because there was parking for residents and then told that We had to pay £10 a day for that privilege, on entering the room there was a a big blood stain on one of the pillow cases, the cold tap didn't work and neither did the TV. That evening we would have a shower before going out there were used make up wipes in the shower tray, the shower kept switching itself off and when it was on it was either red hot or freezing cold. We went down for a drink in the evening the beer was ransom the pool table and both bandits were out of order.
If I hadn't have already paid through Ebookers I would have certainly demanded my money back.
I believe this was once a very nice hotel but is being run down by its proprietors.
we paid £30 each a night so this wasn't a low bdget hotel and that was room only.
Please don't make the same mistake we made and be fooled by the photo's on line
Steer clear of this dump this hotel has nothing going for it at all.

Hotel was nice nice seaview from our room
Was a mix up when we got there over the booking which i booked a single room but said sleeps upto two guests but found out we could not have that room as it was for a single person so we had to have a double room which put the price on but was a nice room and breakfast was very nice. Overall it was a nice stay and room and hotel very clean.
