    Villa Rose was closed. Confusing information before arrival as we were relocated to The Dolphin Hotel. Bathroom very small almost impossible to use. Window would not close so no security. Shower did not work. All reported but no action

    Reception staff very helpful

    There are no staff there so you have to get a keycode for your room and the front door which you don't get till the day. I was bombarded with texts and emails expressing their delight at me staying there, over a dozen in total I think. The bathroom might have been comfortable for a hobbit but not human beings unfortunately. No parking or advice for same.

    The room was pleasant and sunny, it was quiet at night and reasonably convenient for town.

    Kids had better mattresses and firmer pillows than us adults. How the adult room had been arranged had to climb over each other to get to the otherside room/bed. Could barely adjust the TV due to the aerial cable being short so soon as you moved the TV you'd lose all channels. Shower felt like you was gonna go fall through and couldn't close the shower door properly with out ripping it off the wall as it had been siliconed/mastic to the wall.

    Ideal location close to everything with beach on your doorstep

    The fact that it states the building has daily cleaning but yet my son was sick on Friday night due to food poisoning and the sheets were not changed and we had to take our own rubbish to the bins ourself and buy our own toilet roll and tea sugar and milk that was suppose to be provided. Everytime we flushed the toilet water would come up out of the shower and leave loads of sand in it which we then had to clean out

    The location and easy access to the building and rooms

    The shower tray didn't really drain, still had the same water in the bottom from the 1st time I used the shower, the toilet didn't flush very well which left a disgusting smell, just cosmetic things that could be done

    The room was big , tea and coffee was provided

    After reading the reviews, I already was prepared, beds had clean bedding, tea and coffee provided and towels, however the bathroom was dirty, dents in the walls and the shower tray could do with a good scrub, it's a shame because some of it, is cosmetic and for a few quid could change an opinion, however for what we paid it was what it was!!!

    Location is fantastic,

    Noise and the lack of staff to deal with any problems

    Very loud residents that made it impossible to sleep .the mattress was filthy , room adequate . The biggest disappointment was that there is no staff to deal with any problems . The foreigners in the next room needed dealing with and nothing was forthcoming . Mattress protectors and fitted sheets would be an improvement .ripped dirty net curtains in the room . It's a tired venue that is in dire need in a lick of paint . It's a shame because the location is great .I'm glad to be home to get a good night's sleep . All reviews are around about the same and much improvement is required .the venue has so much potential and it's a shame .even small details like bedside lights not working
