Staff were supportive, wi-fi was good, and I loved its unbeatable location just off bars as well as beach. The buffet breakfast was varied, staff offered eggs, toast and bangers. The early check-in too.

Absolutely excellent breakfast, cool position, skilled workers. A short walk to the nice beach. One of tourist spots - a 17th-century fort - is a 10-15 minute walk from the hotel, enjoyed that.
