We have stayed here a few times and each time it gets worse.we usually request room 303 top floor on the corner but it was not available due to flooding This time the whole place smelt of damp to be fair the guy on reception did come up and spray air freshener didnt help no toilet rolls either.shower black mould all round the tray on the plus side its a great location. Standing out side the front door look up and there was a window missing on the 1st floor and you could see the ceiling was down pigeons flying in and out no wounder it smells of damp carpets are filthy and no one hoovered for the 3 days we were there Definitely wont stay again such a shame as we love the location but it needs a lot of money spent on it

I stayed at this hotel for four days, and overall the experience was just okay. The biggest issue was the condition of the room. There was very poor ventilation and barely any space, which made the stay uncomfortable. The room also looked nothing like the photos shown on the website, which was disappointing. The carpet, bathroom, and even the walls were covered in dust, as if the room hadn’t been properly cleaned in a long time. For a hotel stay, cleanliness is the bare minimum, and unfortunately this fell far below expectations. The one positive was the location—it was convenient and easy to get around. However, the hotel itself was not clean, and it’s not somewhere I would choose to stay again or pay for in the future.

It's a basic room, not refurbished for a number of years. The bedding was clean and the bed was comfy. The bathroom could have done with a deep clean but i understand the hotel may be finally starting a room refurbishment plan in 2026 so fingers crossed. For the money it was fine.

The staff were helpful however we had booked 4 rooms had to move one as room smelt dreadfully damp. Our room was quiet bedding clean and towels clean. No shower gel in shower and asked for this didn’t arrive. The shower was dreadful black and mouldy needed a good clean. No lighting in the corridor which made it hard to find room

The room was adequate. Access room so a large shower room. Sea view but windows steamed up so couldn't see out. The double glazing was poor and needed replaced. We had a heater which kept the room reasonably warm. Friends had the breakfast we didn't book it . The breakfast consisted of cereal, toast and cold boiled eggs the same each day. Near the Tower Ballroom which is what we wanted for our dancing event there.
