10/10 Excellent
"Amazing location on the north cliff, next to three excellent restaurants - a beautiful beach viewpoint. The room was very spacious, bed comfortable, with good air con and wifi. Serviced well as needed. Staff helpful and responsive. Fridge and kettle provided. The only suggestions would to be provide a hairdryer and it really needed more plugs."
