Okay Location, But Some Definite Issues

hard beds painted window
The rooms are hot and stuffy and I cannot control the temperature. I also could not open the window because it was painted shut. The bed are too hard and pillows were uncomfortable. It made it difficult to sleep.

sea view good value
i enjoyed the location, very close to the beach. the staff was polite and helpful. my room faced the sea, offering good views (i could see ships!). the price seemed right considering it was the start of summer.
the parking was £25, which i thought was too much. i ended up parking elsewhere. i wish it had been free.
