Close to the beach and amenities.
Guests were pleased to find that they could walk to the centre of town where there are plenty of shops, cafes and restaurants and leave their cars parked at the hotel. Those who wanted to visit the beach could also dos so on foot without having to get taxis or public transport as the Whitesands beach is a few minutes’ walk away from the hotel.

Negative Reviews
negative:
No evening meals available.
Although there are quite a few restaurants and pubs within walking distance, some guests were inconvenienced by not being able to have their evening meal at the hotel. After a day of sightseeing, guests said that they found it cumbersome having to go elsewhere for dinner.
negative:
Bit of a climb to get to the rooms.
There is no lift within the building which meant that guests whose rooms were located on the upper floors faced a daily climb up the narrow steps which some found quite tiring.
negative:
Soundproofing issues.
Some guests found the walls to be rather on the thin side as they could hear the creaking of floor boards above them as well as other noise from the adjoining rooms.
