the team i met were very friendly. this was a plus.

There were no toiletries in the bathroom. I found this annoying. the breakfast quality was also poor. the sausages tasted very cheap, and even the prunes were hard. They were like rubber bullets, i couldn't eat them.

The seafront location was AMAZING, it was near the pier. Free parking was available I think. This was definitely a bonus.

The hotel entertainment was LOUD. It seemed like it was in my room. I could hear everything the couple above me said, including their snoring. This was quite distracting when i tried to rest.

The free car parking was useful the hotel location was decent.

The breakfast was dire it used cheap ingredients. The bacon was underdone both days I was there so I avoided it after that. Portions were rather stingy too so I went hungry.
