Pleasant night stopover. Used the pool and jaccuzzi (have to pay for the jaccuzzi though) Very friendly reception service. An extremely quiet area at the end of October.

Relaxed atmosphere, comfortable rooms.

No food to be found unless it was booked at the hotel. Finishes at 8:00pm though. Had to drive to find a meal.

ok, but would not return to this hotel. Others in the area are better value for money and have more room etc.
(107155432)

Staff were pleasant & breakfast was nice, hotel was clean in comparrison to others we have stayed.

Extremely dated and poor in size. Not value for money at all when you compare it to other hotels with the same facilities.

I paid twice what I'd normally pay to stay here due to the jacuzzi and pool, and I thought it overlooked the sea. The pool area wasn't very clean so I was uncomfortable using the facilities I'd paid extra for. Food was only adequate, but the staff were great. A bonus was evening entertainment.

Good value for money, cleanliness, friendly staff, good food, easy to get to

Dirty, rude/unfriendly staff, hard to find, not worth the money spent, noisy

I would use this hotel again,but if you are looking for a modern and lively establishment then I would not recommend. For a family with young children and the more mature couple, this hotel is for you.
(107203400)

For the price bracket that this hotel offers we found it to be more than adequate. The staff were friendly and very helpful.

Breakfast, parking, clean bedding, location good and close to old town

room small, 2 single beds put together kept moving apart, bathroom old, smell of chlorine throughout the hotel, no fridge in room

overall was not bad
(108006036)

Very quiet, customer service was not bad

If you can improve your dinning facilities will be great, car parking is a strugle if there is a big vehicle parked in the bay, not enough

The hotel room was advertised as a "double room", in fact it was a twin with the beds pushed together!

As i said, it is not a expensive hotel which is two star. It just takes 10 mins walk to the beach and it's near the town centre.
The facilities in the hotel such as swimming pool are very good.
overall, it's nice.
(97845840)

The price is not expensive for a two-star hotel and the surroundings are quite nice.

The room is a little bit small.

we had a very enjoyable stay and will have no hesitation in booking into the hotel again.some may find the accomodation a little dated but for us it was ideal.we totally relaxed because of the way we were looked after, and although it was quiet, being out of season, we are sure the service would have been exactly the same if it had been the busy season.

The stay was very pleasant on the island. The hotel does not merit staying and is expensive. The standard of the room was atrocious, old. There was no shower in the room we were given and it was only upon asking that we got one of the rooms with a shower. The bed was very small and the hotel layout was such that you had to go through 200 fire doors with your luggages before you got to your room! This was very impractical and I can only imagine what it would be like to go through this with either kids or older people. Not a good hotel at all

Good location for both the waterfront and old village

Very dated hotel and would benefit from a good spring clean!
Very noisy, constant slamming of doors through the night and early morning

Great breakfast service and avalibility. The pool was good too. The only thing we would say is that it would have been nice to have a shower in the bathroom. The room was otherwise comfortable, and staff very friendly.

The swimming pool was excellent. Nice views and good location.

Value for money of the hotel is questionable given outdated decor.

Although our room was a disappointment, the service provided by the hotel staff was very good. Everyone we were in contact with seemed happy to serve and enjoy their job which is unusual nowadays. We felt the bar prices were a little high for a 2 star establishment and therefore went out for drinks. Restaurant menu very plain - fruit juice as a starter, then cauliflower cheese main course served with cauliflower as a vegetable accompaniment, at £15 a head we ate elsewhere. We could have spent a lot more money at the hotel if the prices and menu choice improved. Parking was limited but adequate.

Hotel conveniently located close to old Village, shops, beach etc.

Bathroom in bedroom desperately in nned of a refurb. 60's style tiles and swirly carpet, peach bathroom suite. Bedroom better but still tired.

The receptionist really made our weekend break and is a credit to the hotel. It was my fiances birthday and the receptionist arranged a cake and a lovely bunch of flowers to be delivered to our room when we were out, she was extremely friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Loved the help yourself breakfast, and the hotel as a whole was clean.

Maybe more staff in the restaurant on weekends/busy periods. Overall though it was a good stay. I must thank the lady on reception on Sunday morning who accommodated us for an extra night when we asked. She even moved an arrival to a different room so we could stay.
We got told before we stayed that we had a bath/shower .. there were in fact no facilities in the room to wash our hair (i.e. no shower or no add on to the bath plugs) - this did not really affect our stay but should have been made clear.

We stayed 3 nights - Friday to Monday. Sunday morning the service was so slow for breakfast in the restaurant, after 15-20 minutes without even being acknowledged we left and ate breakfast out. This was abuot 9:10am
