Negative Reviews
negative:
Some service issues in restaurant
Although guests have a lot of nice things to say about the overall standards in the restaurant, it does seem that the standard of service occasionally slips during busier times. The staff is friendly but guests note fairly lengthy waits to be served and tables left uncleared.
negative:
Windows need cleaning
Although many guests were able to enjoy a sea view from their room, others note that their view was somewhat obscured due to the fact the windows were dirty on the outside. A trip from a window cleaner sounds like it could be overdue.
negative:
Private functions
It appears that the hotel occasionally plays host to private functions. These seem to go on until as late as 2am in the morning. Some regular guests report being able to hear the music from their room. No warning was offered by staff.
