The room that we booked was not as advertised on the website, we chose a superior double as not too many stairs but the room we were given was another flight of stairs up. Had to phone the hotel number as no one available to talk to in person but in saying that was quickly resolved and a ground floor room was thankfully available.
I mentioned website as also advertised a lounge/bar for guests but this apparently had not been open since Covid! Suggested website requires updating.
Breakfast included was a continental only unless upgraded for £15pp for hot food. Continental was sufficient.

Scott & Liz are fantastic hosts, going above and beyond for their guests.
The hotel is conveniently located for all amenities. It’s beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean.
Breakfast was awesome.

Gem of a place to stay
Another lovely stay. Welcoming staff who explain everything and show you to your room. Room clean and modern, albeit a little small. Everything you need. Parking is great in a quiet area. Breakfast superb

Staff very helpful and friendly, free on street parking, loads of places to eat in the area (Ocean Road), handy for the seafront. The hotel itself was top notch and the breakfast room/coffee shop were lovely. Will definitely be back.
