The Hop Inn is often chosen for its location, within walking distance of the beach and a convenient distance from the pier and centre. Many appreciate the spacious rooms, some of which are dog-friendly, and the convenience of having breakfast in the downstairs pub. While on-site parking is limited, the hotel offers good value, especially considering the breakfast.

friendly staff nice checkout good size late music unsafe key front door
The staff was very friendly. The checkout time was nice. My double room was a good size. The bathroom was also nice and clean.
There was music in the bar until midnight. It kept me awake, so i slept only after midnight. I had to leave the key on a windowledge by the front door because i left very early. This felt unsafe.

large room great location short walk wooden window frames loud noise flat mattress
the room was large and quite comfortable. its location was great to get to the center. the main square was roughly a ten minute walk.
the old wooden window frames were knocking loudly. i could hear the wind and it was very noisy. the mattress was flat and should have been changed.
