    The hotel is looking very tired and needs a coat of paint everywhere. The rooms could do with refurbishment and introducing some colour. Floorboards very creaky.

    The location was ideal for our stay.

    Toilet was in a really small gap, noisy floorboards , noisy outside, breakfast was not good

    Room was lovely, big, clean and we were on the side so also had a sea view. Staff really friendly.

    That you were expected to book for dinner before 4pm, and that you couldn't just get a table if you felt like eating later. And only a small window of time for dinner seatings.

    That we were upgraded to a large sea view room without a fuss, after discovering a problem with the room we originally had.

    Depends on which member of staff you find as to whether they’re friendly. One lady was a darling and the other was very rude. Parking rules were not made clear!

    Amazing location!

    The walls and floors are quiet thin . But this is due to building being older. But overall no complaints

    It was on sea front . Close to the pier. Staff were friendly . We were able to check in early which was a bonus . Had a problem with electric which was sorted immediately which was amazing.

    A very enjoyable stay. There was a real buzz around the reception area and the breakfast area.

    • Small Double Room
    • Stayed 3 nights

    The room had poor ventilation with just one window opening about 8 cm. When we did open it we were invaded by pigeons. The door to the room was tricky to close and made a terrible bang each time we closed it.

    Reception staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great with plenty of everything. The hotel, being close to the pier, was ideally positioned. The room was serviced each day of our three day stay. The shower water was nice and not. We made good use of the kettle and the hot chocolate provided was welcome.

    Parking fee as the scratch cards for £2 are not available as all other hotels. We have stayed here many times and always able to purchase a scratch card for parking from the reception. The excuse was that they have their own car park at rear which is £6 a day. But the car park has always been there. …

    It’s the second time we visited. This time we had a quiet big room with a bit of a sea view. The beds were very comfy. The breakfast was good. They offer an English breakfast. The beach is just across the street and loads of shops and bars are in reach.We will be coming again.

    Alot of the rooms I have stayed in could do with new shower heads/pipes in the baths as a few different rooms I have stayed in have substantial leaks from this which, apart from reducing pressure could cause problems of seepage in the rooms below.... Room 336 and 200 come to mind

    My room needed updating. Wallpaper beginning to come away from the wall, a very stained carpet, mould on the bathroom ceiling, no extractor fan, nowhere to hang towels. The loo didn’t flush properly. Room servicing for my four day stay was minimal. My bin wasn’t emptied even though I stayed for four nights. Bed not made. Bank holiday restaurant staff were at times rather unfriendly, but the breakfast staff who worked on the non-holiday morning were delightful. Other hotel staff were fine throughout eg dealt immediately with requests eg for more teabags/ milk in my room.

    Facilities. Position. Breakfast.
