    While the room was smaller than expected and the sounds coming from the hallway and below pub made it seem like walls were made out of paper, the pub closing at 11pm, the view from the room and the proximity to the ocean really made it worthwhile. Also towns and restaurants are well within driving distance... 30mns to a delicious and well deserved Chinese restaurant.

    The staff were absolutely adorable, welcoming and very helpful. The proximity to and view of the ocean and ocean were a definite surprise plus. Be aware that the pub doesn't serve food anymore...

    Accommodation is small, scruffy and tired. Ensuite the size of a cupboard. Noise from pub below until early hours. Poor location of plug sockets for kettle, chargers etc. This place could be a goldmine if the owners spent a little bit of money to upgrade it.

    The location and proximity to the beach. The staff were excellent, very helpful and gave a reduction because of issues with hot water etc. Beds were clean and comfortable. Pub below if you want a pint but no food.

    The bathroom wasn't good at all. There were no proper shower towels and bathroom wasn't clean to the standard.

    The property was at a good location with walking access to the beach. Accommodation was with a pub and food shop and the vibe was nice.

    There was no kettle, cutlery nor sugar, but a modern coffee-maker was in situ. The missing items were supplied immediately we asked for them, so it was obviously just an oversight on this occasion. A mirror in the en suite would be useful.

    The hosts were very friendly and welcoming, as were the patrons of the attached pub.

    No soap / shampoo for shower. Water was boiling hot in shower, no control over it Plugs not working The hallway smelled badly of cigarettes. The rooms felt a little tired and in need of refurbishment

    The bartender Luke who we met on arrival was very friendly and helpful. It wasn't his responsibility to check us in but he endeavoured to do his best.

    There was almost no toilet paper. It said that food is available at the premises, but it is not. Since the rooms are above the pub, you can hear all the noises coming back from there. It wasn't too much of a problem for me, as I stayed in the pub till midnight, but just warning others if they want to rest - better to find another accommodation.

    Convenience of a pub downstairs, no need to drive... Good live music also!

    We booked a triple room with a private bathroom. There was a mix up and initially we got a room with no bathroom. The staff offered us to stay in different section of the building at an extra charge, in two double rooms with an external, private bathroom. Then it turned out there's another guest there as well, but "only if we agree" - as if it was up to us. It was 10pm already so really not the time to argue, but there was no acknowledgement of an issue from the staff. The place is a bar with music and people shouting until 1am. Smells a bit of dog, but one of our rooms was OK. The dog is cute. The "free parking available" is there unless there's too many bar guests. Overall the place is a bit dated but not too bad.

    The beds were comfortable, but we did not stay in the room we booked but in a "private staff area" of sorts. Location is brilliant. Really nice cafe with great food and drinks nearby.

    Great location, basic accommodation above a pub . Old but clean and comfortable... after reading all reviews I was worried. But everything was fine.. cheap and cheerful, bit of noise from outside but it was a Saturday night in a holiday spot and over a pub.
