Excellent location & great staff

All good, great location for beach, parks & walk into town Easy & free on site parking. Very friendly & proffesional staff, a true assett to the hotel. Nice choice for breakfast. Lovely large room with a view to sea & park. Only comment would be that the bathroom would benefit with some tlc however it all worked and the bath towels were large & soft. Nice outside space, comfy dining room and amicable bar with tv.
