Hotel is in a lovely building, clearly been recently renovated and looks good, modern rooms and bathrooms. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Open fire in reception was lovely after a walk to the beach. Breakfast was good. Only complaints were that the room backed onto an extractor with a view of a metal roof and the pillows were quite thick
