Excellent stay near the seafront

ideal location friendly staff lovely view thoughtful basket
The location was ideal, a short walk to local attractions. The staff was friendly. My room had a sea view. It also included a vanity basket in the bathroom with pads, tampons, razors, and hair ties. This was thoughtful (I appreciated it!).
I found the cold water flow from the tap to be weak.
