The hotel is situated right on the seafront, offering a perfect location to enjoy the coastline. The rooms need improvement, especially in terms of maintenance like faulty plugs and toilets. The service provided was exceptional, with attentive staff accommodating food intolerances. The dining experience was lacking in vegetarian options and had high prices. The hotel's location is superb but needs some renovations to enhance the room quality.

The location was a bit out dated and needs modernization to align with the rest of the hotel. Despite this, the faultless service and the staff make up for it. The proximity to the seafront adds to the charm of the hotel.

The hotel has lovely rooms, but not being able to get food on the first evening due to a busy chef and no room service was a downside. The staff, however, were amazing and more than made up for any issues. The location is superb right on the seafront.
