unresolved plug problem unsafe heater
the breakfast was alright. the location was quite good.
I had issues with the television. It would not work. the staff mentioned a plug problem, yet it seemed unresolved for quite some time (i overheard other guests mentioning the same issue). the central heating also wasn't functional. I got a small heater, but it looked pretty unsafe.

i RECEIVED a very friendly welcome. The breakfast was VERY good, and the rooms were clean. The location was perfect for accessing the town, the beach, and the Winter Gardens, everything was so close! The staff was friendly and accommodating, which i REALLY appreciated.
