A generally adequate stay

convenient locationfriendly staffluggage storagepoor cleanlinessleaking sinkdated hotel
The location was beneficial to get to the town centre and beach easily. The staff member who greeted me was friendly. I appreciated that I could leave my luggage after checking out and collect it later without any issues.
The room wasn't especially clean. I noticed the sink leaked on the floor around the base. The hotel seemed rather dated..

quiet stay near the theatre

large roomuseful tableadjustable radiatorgreat location
The room size impressed me. it included a table and chairs, which allowed me to eat my takeaway comfortably. i turned the radiator on and off as needed. It worked well. the hotel's location suited my trip to the open air theatre.
the kettle was temperamental. this was a slight inconvenience since i enjoy a cup of tea in the morning.
