“This hotel is a charmer; its Victorian bones hold clean, generously sized rooms, some blessed with wide sea views. The location is superb, a quick stroll to the beach and town, and the heated outdoor pool is a definite plus. Minor maintenance quirks come with the territory in such a building, but the friendly staff and appealing public spaces more than compensate.”
