Great location, live music and comfortable Had a 2 great night stay here. The hotel is right on the seafront so an ideal location with an easy stroll to many bars restaurants and shops. Fifteen minute walk to the station. The hotel is old and rather dated, but was very clean and beds comfortable. Live music each day over the weekend was really enjoyable. Lovely large outside seating area that was kept immaculately clean. Would definitely recommend a stay here

Don’t Book It The location and Les Gilbert at the front desk are the only redeeming features of this property. Beyond that, the place is shockingly tired and unclean — a real disappointment. The overall condition suggests serious neglect, and it’s hard to believe it has passed any recent inspections. The issues are numerous: • Blown plaster throughout the building • Dirty, poorly maintained toilets • Windows that don’t open properly • Outdated and worn furniture • Expired or non-compliant PAT testing Frankly, the owners should be ashamed of the state of this property. It misrepresents itself completely, and in its current condition, it would struggle to meet basic hospitality standards, let alone warrant a four-star rating. Even after paying to upgrade we decided not to stay and were fortunate enough to get our money back. If have any respect for yourself you won’t be staying here!

In desperate need of refurbishment Hotel is in a good location but old building shows lack of maintenance & investment delivering a below standard hotel experience. Very poor housekeeping and cleanliness throughout although bed linen clean.. Although staff seem friendly enough I could not recommend and will not return.

Needs a refurb This place is like a ruined. Beauty. It has class and character but its looks are getting rather ravaged I ve always known it wax a bit dilapidated but I think its time for a bit of refurbishing My room was a nice size but extremely hot and no fans that work effectively I also felt the breakfast was poor very limited selection on the cooked side A few tired eggs bulk cooked bacon and sausage and some tinned tomatoes and beans that looked like they had been there a while No cooked tomatoes or mushrooms
