There’s nothing I didn’t like, very good value for money. Basic rooms for a weekend away.

Great Value

8.0

This was our third or forth time staying here. Room is cheap and cheerful, has everything you need very central easy walk to the Marina/ Town with a couple of easily accessible beaches and Wests Club is in walking distance too. Place was clean and the lady running the place was very helpful. I am sure we will be back again!

Room is a little outdated but clean and very reasonably priced can't have everything!
