Based on recent reviews

The Mayfair Hotel often impresses guests with its spacious rooms, some featuring separate kitchen areas and dressing tables. Cleanliness is a frequently highlighted positive, particularly in the modern shower rooms.

Spacious apartment close to the beach!

spacious apartment separate kitchen functional shower

The apartment was really spacious with two separate rooms! A separate kitchen and hall really added to the comfort. I liked the shower, it was very functional.

The room needed an extra sink, it's tough to wash up and fill the kettle in the bathroom sink. That could be improved! It wasn't very nice, but I made it work.

Location

The apartment is situated very near to the beach, and it is an easy walk! This makes it very convenient for families and those who want to enjoy the seaside. It is also close to local amenities.

The hotel offered easy parking, a real plus. I found it quite simple to get in and out. It was also close to the sea front, I appreciated this proximity. The staff were helpful. This assisted me a lot.

I noticed wear to the room itself. This made it look dirtier than it probably was.
