Beautiful view from the hotel to the sea. Lovely way to have a coffee and quiet start to day. Great stop on way through and easy for whole family.

Excellent location, we walked just outside the door and got amazing sunrise views, cons its an older motel and the shower pressure was pretty average, overall pretty good place and very well priced.

Was not very clean ,the duvet and pillow slips that matched was very outdated and not changed. Shower could do with a good clean in the grout. Under toilet rim was filthy and had obviously never had a scrub. Out of seven hotels we stayed at on our holiday it was definitely the worst one
