the breakfast was plentiful. it included a great full english option to start the day. i found the location to be a short walk to the seafront harbor. raj dropped me off at the train station when i checked out. this was a kind gesture from them.

large choice allocated parking
the breakfast offered a large choice of items. it included a full english breakfast, cereals and fruit (i especially liked the fruit selection). the room included a selection of tea and coffee. lotus biscoff biscuits were also available. fresh milk was available from a fridge on the landing. an allocated parking space made arrival simple. the location allowed easy walking to shops and restaurants.
the pillows were a little too soft for my liking.
