Decor had been updated though as well as furnishings. Shower was very temperamental so ended up having a bath instead as couldn’t regulate the temperature. Friendly helpful staff as always . ##### Esther Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Rashda Aug 31, 2025 The location of this property was amazing and the staff were lovely however its just a basic hotel with a basic bed and very small shower room ##### Rashda Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Sep 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our room was clean. The bed linen and towels were of good quality. The room has a tv and tea and coffee making facilities which is nice. Breakfast was adequate. The walls a very thin and we were woken up very early by guests in the next room turning their tv on very loudly. We arrived quite late and there was no car parking available, but managed to park in the road. Apart from that we had a good stay and would come again. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Julie Sep 17, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was dirty there was no heating on and it was cold. Breakfast was rubbish, shower was terrible toto use. The window cils were thilfy, no double glazing. The room needs updating. Would not recommend. ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicola Aug 31, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Pleasant surprise After reading reviews, I was a little unsure whether to book. However, I only need accommodation for one evening. I called the morning I was due to travel and was advised that there was a refurbished room available and although I was booking online I could add a note to request. Our room was much better than I envisaged over looking the front with a sea view. Comfortable bed, two nice chairs in the room by the window which we liked. Bathroom was fine, clean, just needs the radiator replacing or painting. We enjoyed 3 games of pool which my son really enjoyed. This was in the downstairs area, with bar and nice seating outside. Next morning we both enjoyed a good breakfast with cereals, toast and a cooked breakfast. Tea for two and plenty of juice to choose from too. I would book again and look forward to seeing the renovations continue. Overall great affordable overnight stay with a fab breakfast. ##### Nicola Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### enrico Sep 4, 2025 ##### enrico Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Debbie Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Debbie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Aug 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### John Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025
