Really good Stay

comfortable bed clean bathroom decent temperature good location

The room had a comfortable bed. The location proved convenient near the tram stop. I found the bathroom and bedroom clean. The room temperature remained decent . I found soft towels in the bathroom.

The window latches were broken and improvised repairs were evident. A cold wind came through the gaps on a very windy night. I tried blocking with towels.

Acceptable stay with some issues

dirty windows unusual coffee maker

The location was convenient for accessing nearby attractions.

The room was smaller than expected (i really felt a bit misled). The sea view was okay, but the windows were quite dirty. I found no regular kettle for making tea, there was only a hot water machine and a coffee maker, unusual.

Good Sea View

clean room great view car parking easy travel

My room was clean. The sea view was great from my window. Staff let me leave my car in the car park after check out. This helped me because I went for breakfast before traveling.

The bathroom feels narrow. the sink is really small.
