Rooms were very small/cramped for 2 people. Also very thin walls so doors banging through the night very disruptive.
Great stay for our location party
Lovely check in girl, phone call to ask about our arrival time which was good

Perfect location to get by public transport to Worthing or Brighton. Disabled parking was easy and free.
The room was overlooking the busy main road which was noisy all the time.
The oddity was room 10 has a private bathroom however its across a corridor thats used by other guests that are going to their rooms. Not great at 4am when guests are returning from their night out and you're in your sleeping attire.
Also room 10 has a balcony, accessible via the bathroom window, over a large step. Its a great view of the lagoon. Not great when someone is on the loo though.
The accommodation was just okay and the properties state of repair reflects the price. It fulfilled our need to visit a relative. The noise of different guests returning at all times, during the early hours, was disturbing which wasnt conducive to a peaceful sleep.
Inside the room was a kettle. Two lamps, one bulb and an iron and board. No sink fill your kettle or rinse your cup.... That was across that corridor in the bathroom.
The bed was firm and had 2 pillows. Worked for me.
The sunset from the stony beach was lovely which was very accessible from this accommodation.

Handy no-frills stopover
Decent stopover when visiting relations. Warm welcome with good parking advice. Our room was clean and functional, beds firm. Some road noise noticeable at certain times but not intrusive.
We enjoyed the view over lagoon & sea beyond when we had supper in the bar. Food was good & well-portioned; the small plates ( croquets, squid, koftas) were a welcome change from the ‘pub classics’ (which are also available there) No breakfast available in house but there’s a traditional cafe across the road ( cash only, be aware) Great position for a stroll on the promenade.

Disliked: Room comfort
20 min bus ride into town rooms very basic and old fashioned
It was ok if you need somewhere in the area for a night. There was a lot of noise from the road and from the other guests, could hear the TV on one side and a conversation on the other.
Basic pub with rooms with very friendly staff. Guests get 10% off of bar food menu. No breakfast but good cafes near by. Other guests felt it was a good idea to be really loud at 4am.
Nice friendly staff. Hotel decor dated in places but they are investing in renovation and I had one such room on the top floor. Walls a bit thin as could clearly hear a rather amorous couple next door - but that didn’t last too long!
I was prepared to be underwhelmed as the price was modest for Brighton. However it was a nice room , staff interaction was good and the location all be it a couple of miles out of town led to a nice 50 minute walk in along the prom and the beach huts. All in all a happy stay and the street parking situation was far better than the town centre.
