It was also very quiet except for the airplanes flying over which was VERY loud. The beds were too hard for all of us but otherwise everything was comfortable. We would 100% stay here again.

    There was a lot to like about this place! Location was fantastic for the convention centre, supermarket, shops, getting to the water and restaurants. The place was clean and well equipped for self catering. The team were attentive. The welcome video really helpful. There was an aircon (noisy when on, see below), heater and fans. I was very comfortable in spring but I wonder what summer would be like.

    Our room was in a bungalow cottage style row of rooms separate from the traditional hotel rooms. The room itself was a basic, simple, clean room. It was comfortable. The lobby and breakfast was varied and nice.

    Perfect location, beach, restaurants etc. are in easy walking distance. Nothing fancy, but just a cozy and a comfortable home away from home. Ideal for a stay of several days. Excellent Wifi. Good quality towels. Large rooms/suites. Charming people. Actually my third stay at this place, and still loving it.
