underwhelming stay, style over substance?

expensive parkingbroken appliance

the parking situation was a real headache. paying £27 a day reminded me of highway robbery. i ended up hunting for street parking, a task that hit like a competitive sport. the room itself had a broken appliance. housekeeping did not replace things for us.

tender moments at a coastal haven

warm greetinggarden suitespecial detailmissing teabags

The staff greeted us warmly upon arrival, a tender moment. our garden suite offered a bath on the terrace. Such a sweet detail. drinks at the bar transported us to the south of france. The outdoor terrace really is something special.

housekeeping seemed a bit inexperienced, refills were missing spoons, milk, or teabags. i had to request these items, which interrupted our relaxation. it was a minor inconvenience, but it detracted from the overall experience.

the rooms are lovely and all the added details are thought of.

I booked a suite at this hotel for £470 and made a special request that i had a dog and needed parking. i received a message saying this could be granted at no extra cost but the hotel added the cost of my dog and took £500 from my account without any confirmation. i found this quite unprofessional.. they also did not provide any bowls or bedding for the dog. I had to request this.

Excellent Stay with Beachfront Access

comfortable bedcoffee machinebeachfront locationexpensive parking

The hotel provided a complimentary measure of spiced rum in the room. I also appreciated the Nespresso coffee machine available. The beds offered very comfortable sleep. The location is on the beachfront and offers a short walk to the pier and town center.

I think paying £27 for parking per night, then £15 per person for a continental breakfast, could deter me from returning.

Rooms

The room included unique decorative elements and was spotlessly clean. The bedroom provided a comfortable sleeping environment and the bathroom was well kept. I found all aspects of the room satisfactory and functional.

Service

The staff were friendly and professional upon my late arrival. They provided clear directions to my room and highlighted the complimentary rum. I found all interactions to be efficient and helpful-.
