The swimming pool was very good. very good service from all staff. Considering the rest of the facilities the room was something of a disappointment.

Great vacation spot if you wish to just chill and relax by the sea. However, if you are in to shopping and pub going, you may need to rise your budget because transportation to the town center is quite expensive.

There is a road right next to the hotel so if you do not want to hear traffic noise ask for a room farther up the hill.
