We mainly chose this hotel because there is "secure" bike storage for our valuable e-bikes only to find that the bike storage is left unlocked throughout the day. Maybe a code lock on the bike storage would be a better option? A few years ago, this would have been a really nice place to stay but unfortunately the noise from the roads and the campervan site next door made sleep very difficult. We would not book again.

Pretty average stay. The room is a bit old and basic, but all the amenities are there and it is just a short walk to the center of down for dining or the beach.
