My room, a Generous, met expectations. The location is undeniably fine.

I encountered service issues. I asked a staff member a question, the reply was "sorry mate, I can't help you with that. " This was unprofessional. An itemized bill was difficult to obtain at checkout.

Really good Getaway Experience

unique roomsea viewattentive staffgood prosecco

I booked the Unique room, it provided a rooftop space overlooking the sea, offering tranquil views. The staff demonstrated attentiveness. I reserved a slot in the hot tubs. The cliff edge location added to the experience. The Prosecco was the best I have ever had, it was a really good touch.

The restaurant napkins felt somewhat flimsy. they lacked the crispness I expected.

Every hotel team member looked friendly. Each staff member seemed helpful as well. My room featured a large freestanding bath. The room also included a quirky turret with a seating area.

My pillows were too soft. I needed firmer ones. I asked for firmer pillows two times. Someone told me they would follow up. I never heard back from anyone.
