Life Hotel Seaview & Spa

We were looking forward to our stay, but the room and the experience didn’t feel worth the price we paid. Our family room, which was also the disabled room, was on the ground floor. I’d expected some kind of sea view, but the room was dark and claustrophobic, with faded windows. We couldn’t open them because they faced the cafe seating area and other guests could look straight in. The air conditioning gave us trouble twice, and there was no manual; reception told us not to open the windows because that would switch it off. The furniture was poor quality, and the room generally needed more care. One receptionist in particular was unpleasant. I waited while she typed, then she looked at me and carried on, so I had to ask if she could help. While dealing with me, she also turned to another guest. The breakfast and bar staff were the nicest people there and very helpful. It was a shame, since we’d been so keen to stay.
