Poor quality hotel - very tired and shabby. Charged the extortionate price of 289 for one night and it was daylight robbery. Poor amenities in room, so disappointing.

We stayed in a family room which was on the third floor. The both lifts were out of order and had been for sometime apparently. This made it a bit tricky with 2 children's stuff for 2 days and having to carry it up 2 flights of stairs. The hotel itself is looking tired in places. The staff were lovely and very accommodating. The breakfast was good and varied. The worst bit is there is no air conditioning. The room was stifling. We were supplied with one fan which did little to help on the hottest weekend of the year so far. We used the pool which was refreshing and again a little tired especially in the changing rooms especially. The bar was reasonably priced as was the dinner price (which we didn't have). It was obviously a popular place for groups. You can walk the 30 minutes to the seafront and parking is free unlike the town which is extortionate. It's in need of an upgrade and air con for us to use again.

Our room was dated, and also had dog food on the carpet - can’t believe they put you in a pet food without warning as people have allergies. On check in someone was checking in with a 9 week kitten. The room we were in can’t have been properly cleaned. The breakfast isn’t work £10 each. Expensive for what it is.

As other reviews said, hotel is dated. Carpeted everywhere, stuffy, straight out of the 70's. It felt like a retirement home rather than a hotel. Room was unbearably hot at night, neither my husband nor I could really get to sleep. We were provided with one fan which was vastly inadequate to cool a family size room. Combined with the inability to open the window more than a crack nor plug the fan closer to the window to draw in cold air, this was by far the worst stay ever. Please don't book this hotel for your own sanity, no matter how cheap you are feeling.

Is not that it's not kept clean. it's just that its an old tired building in need of updating. The staff were fantastic though. Had a few issues (of my own making) and despite being very busy, they couldn't have been nicer. I hope they are well paid. Parking is a bit sketchy and only 1 space left.

Bad!

The room we booked was filthy lot as seen in these pictures. An Asian receptionist told us there is no other room to change to and the next morning when I payed more more , they quickly gave us another room that’s better. The Receptionist was rude and talking to loud in front of everyone on matters that needs addressed privately. Blood stains in bed, rooms stinks with no ventilation or air condition and loads of other issues
