Your experience will depend on the room you are able to book. Unfortunately, we could only book a standard room at the top and back of the hotel, which overlooks the dustbins - see pic. The room was clean and correct, but the double bed was only standard sized with a very firm mattress, so didn't suit us. I ended up decamping onto the floor for the night. We booked out the next day so forfeited our second night. The hotel service was good - nice, attentive staff, and Hailey exceptional. The restaurant food quality for supper was very average. Avoid the duck crispy pancakes which were filled with some form of unidentifiable meat paste, but the service was good. Breakfast was much better, as food is not pre-packed and microwaved but freshly prepared in the kitchen and again, good, fast service. The location is good, with front rooms having a view of the beach and sea, but parking was a challenge. However, there are public car parks nearby and you can also park overnight on the Parade in frontbench the hotel. So for us, great to see our friends at the venue, but disappointed with the accommodation as well as paying for two nights when we left a day early because of a bed challenge and stress related migraine. The Standard rooms aren't cheap at 130/night either. Would I stay here again? No, unless I could book a better room, as these do have king size beds. We inspected our friends' rooms, which were much better. So for us, a disappointing stay hotel-wise, but good to meet up with old friends for a birthday celebration, so it wasn't a total write-off.
