Althougth the hotel is old, somethings are goos as the pools and the breakfast. Rooms are very old, also the bathroom. Nowadays it is not a 4 stars hotel, something before 3 and 2 maybe.

The sights to the sea are good.

This hotel would not look out of place in the 70's! Rooms were clean with a good view over the sea front. Rooms without sea view have limited view of the street. Breakfast was full and hearty and was just about the highlight of the stay. We did not eat in the restaurant, except breakfast, but the room service food prices, we're reasonable enough. Had the room been about another £20.00 cheaper it would have at least been decent value. Good location in the centre of the sea front, approx. 1km from the harbour area ( lots of nice, and pricey little restaurants and bars here). Staff were friendly and helpful. Everything worked, great views from the room but a little too dated!

This is not a 'bling' hotel with discos and bingo etc. There is live music....but its under control !
The hotel is on a rocky promontory with the sea on three sides, there is a hotel pool as well as swimming in the sea. It is virtually in the town centre but not noisy.
The staff at the hotel are helpful, friendly and efficient.
The decor is slightly old fashioned, our room was a good size with air conditioning,fridge,TV and a balcony overlooking the sea. The bathroom had all that we needed, (in full working order) but was a little tired and needed some tlc. If you have problems getting out of a bath be certain to ask for a bath with handles
The room service was excellent with linen and towels being changed daily.
Prices in the bar and for snacks are very good.
There is a large taxi rank next to the hotel( make sure you get a price before starting your ride) if you are using local buses its about a 10 minute walk uphill to the nearest bus stop. The Tourist information office ( situated by the harbour) will give lots of help regarding travel. The local chemists ( have a large green cross outside) seem to stock a lot of the same products as we have in UK.
We did not find there was a great deal of difference in the prices charged by the restaurants around the harbour to those further inland. I recommend the Brandy Sour...a great long drink.

The location is the only good thing about this hotel. Right on the sea front and close to town. Prices represent very poor value.
Rooms and public areas are very dated but not in a nostalgic way. Walls are cracked and peeling. Decoration is poor. Bathroom not updated for many, many years. Room was smelly.

The worst aspect, by far, and one that would deter me from staying there again, is safety (or lack of it). As always, the first thing I do when I check in to a hotel, is to seek out the emergency exits. I was on the third floor so followed the emergency exit sign to the stairs. There were no fire doors on the exits. Stairs were blocked with all manner of "junk". Carpets, furniture and other flammable materials were being stored in the emergency exit stair well. In the event of a fire there would have been no way out. In most countries, this hotel would fail on safety and be closed down.
