    • Deluxe Double Room with Side Sea View
    • Stayed 1 night
    • Submitted via mobile

    Poor finish in bathroom such as sharp areas around sink, bathroom door handle and lock can see old holes around them and the chipboard within door. Bathroom window broken and doesn't close, bedroom windows draughty. Lamp in sofa area finally came on over an hour after we actually turned it on. Never anyone in reception so left standing for a while. Phone is never answered despite calling 5 times to raise an issue of no water pressure (which did get resolved). External works were underway and we're due to continue late into the evening, but were stopped after we raised concerns as we have a young child and was already 7pm.

    Good location, lovely view from sea view room. issue raised was resolved within 30 mins. Comfy beds. Clean.

    The owner and her son were extremely kind and helpful. The position of the hotel was, as expected, excellent. We asked for a sea view, and the owner was kind enough to move us down from the second floor to the first floor when we asked, and she gave us a room with a magnificent view of Culver Cliff.

    Headboard on bed and somewhere to hang a towel near basin.

    Ok, more cereal options needed and some yogurts available would be good. Also fried eggs too.

    That the outside balcony and pool was closed. Also the set volume on the TV, so you could hardly hear it.

    The way you could help yourself to breakfast. The lovely designed bar, pool table and relaxed atmosphere.

    Wish the breakfast included more vegetarian options and fruits, but otherwise not bad.

    The location was excellent. Just a 5 minute walk down to Shankline Beach. The room we stayed at had an excellent view of the beach as well. Beautiful sunrise. Great value for money.

    It was only a fixed shower head with a very fine water jet, which made the showering more like a struggle. Dirty carpet, dusty surfaces, tasteless and weak coffee, and sticky table at breakfast. Lack of maintenance, like: there was a piece of wood missing from the window ledge, and it needed painting so the wall as well, or half part of the wardrobe was completely missing. This hotel could do much better by paying more attention to details. I am sorry...

    The view and location were awesome.

    the room was abit bland,all painted white,no colour or pictures,not a warm welcoming room,more a budget hotel feel. The breakfast is a buffet style,help yourselve and the quality of the breakfast wasnt that good. I would rather they served us only what we wanted, reducing waste and spend a little more on the quality of the breakfast,it was abit disappointing, we had breakfast out the following day.

    location and friendlyness of the staff,value for money and included car parking. Location good and a quite hotel, clean and meets needs
