Lovely historical room in a terrific old building, great bar and restaurant. Right across from the beach with views, easy walk to all the local attractions and landmarks. Only downfall was the lack of AC, but the room had a fab to help. Would stay again without hesitation

I booked a seafront heritage room. Our balcony on the side of the building was across the hall from our room and outside another guest’s window. Not truly ‘seafront’ nor private.

The view was lovely. The bed was old and hard. There was no wifi and I came with work to be done. Care factor was poor and was told it was because of the thick walls. The age of the building was quaint but it needs some attention and comfortable bedding. Paid too much.
Convenient to attractions.
