The beds we're like sleeping on a board. Very uncomfortable sleep. I didn't manage to even get an hour sleep it was very uncomfortable. I will be booking elsewhere next time. Also there was a lot of noise from people partying. Overall the stay was terrible

Faded glory, friendly staff bit of a queue at check in and some weird guests in the nicest possible way. But this hotel was perfectly pleasant and totally unique absolutely fascinated us. So nice to stay somewhere that isn’t a generic Premier/Travel Lodge this place has a soul and heartbeat and we will definitely be back.

Friendly staff greeting. We were upgraded and had an excellent sea view. Hotel is old and showing its age in places but for the money it was excellent value. Great location near to train station and local restaurants and pubs.

We couldn’t close the window in our room due to the handle being missing, but we had been given a sea view room when we’d ordered a standard double. The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. Will definitely stay here again in the future
