Firstly the good, the hotel was clean, tidy & comfortable, with a nice shower. Good location, easy to walk to lots of restaurants and the beach.
However, the room was smaller than expected, also the hotel advertises on street parking outside, however this is not free and very expensive. We ended up parking in a public multi story, therefore, could have widened our initial search of hotels, to many more (as most other hotels, honestly list that they don’t have parking). Then the worst thing of the stay, was that a 4 digit code is needed to get into the hotel main front door at night when there is no one on duty, and we were given the wrong code written down. which obviously we didn’t find out until we tried to get in at night. There was a button to press to speak to someone, which we pressed multiple times and no one answered. I tried telephoning the hotel’s number and no one answered, so we were stuck outside the hotel in the rain, facing the possibility of having to see if we could find another hotel for the night. Thankfully after the multiple button pressing, telephoning and myself and my wife debating what to do next, another couple came back to the hotel, who had the correct code! I completely understand that someone might make the mistake of writing down the wrong number, but surely if a hotel full of guests has no one on the premises at night there should be some way to contact someone in an emergency. Gratefully, on complaining we were given free breakfast.
