Great location
The owners are very friendly, the room was large, comfy bed, shower was hot and very good, 2min walk to sea front. They ask if you need room service, we had clean towels each day .

Not bad for the given price but could be better
We stayed for two nights and the experience was not that great. The floor was dusty and the towels seem clean but had fibres sticking to the body and face when used. The bathroom lock was not working. The grills in the bathroom are rusty and were not clean.

Very misleading reviews
After reading the reviews I had prepared myself for the worst. I even took a sleeping bag and my own towel. I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised. The guy at reception was polite and friendly. Yes the hotel is a bit dated but for the price you can’t expect the Ritz. The room was small but clean and tidy. The sink shower and toilet were clean as was all the bedding. The bed was comfortable and there was a TV, kettle with plenty of tea, coffee and milk. There was even a small fridge. Maybe I was just lucky but I can’t really fault the place and for the price it was a bargain. I would definitely book again.

Not exactly cheap, but felt like a 2 star hotel. Very tired public spaces, pretty useless shower, very noisy bathroom fan.

Unfortunately the remote would not turn off TV so unplugged each time. No plug in sink. I have stayed before and did know what to expect. Excellent pillows and comfortable bed. Friendly staff.

As expected for budget hotel - very shabby, poor condition and not particularly clean, but fine for one night. Lamps in the bedroom would have been a nice touch!

Perfectly located b&b
Perfect b&b for a couple of night stay in the city, literally minutes walk from the pier, cafes and local bars. Fantastic view of the sea too

Two things - half of the power sockets don’t work and the bathroom doors are very old which won’t close… but Adele’s hospital is so warm and welcoming.
