I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The location is superb, right on the cliff top with stunning views and close to many restaurants. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The only downside was the small shower that needed some decoration, but for the price, it was still a fantastic value.

The hotel is ideally located on the cliff top, just across from the beach, with a cozy pub downstairs. The rooms, despite needing a bit of decoration, offer good value at only £35, featuring a fantastic walk-in shower with a power shower. The service was exceptional with a genuinely friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience, which includes a delightful Danish pastry, adds a nice touch to the stay. However, the facilities could use some improvement.

The hotel offers good value for £35, with rooms that have only a small shower and in need of decoration. However, the great walk-in shower with a power shower adds a nice touch. The service staff were friendly and went out of their way to accommodate any requests, making the stay pleasant. The location on the cliff top near the beautiful beach provides stunning views out to sea, making it a great spot to relax. The included dining with indulgent pastries adds a touch of luxury. The hotel facilities are adequate, though some areas may need improvement.
