“While the exterior may present a slightly tired appearance, stepping inside reveals a significant transformation, particularly evident in the generously sized rooms and surprisingly modern bathrooms. The hotel's proximity to the seafront and gardens is a notable advantage, complemented by genuinely welcoming staff who contribute to a very agreeable stay. A pleasant surprise is the well-maintained indoor pool and jacuzzi, adding a valuable amenity to the overall experience.”
