The entrance is not very secure. Anyone could get into the hotel. The stairs to reception are very tired, stained carpet, needs a makover. Had an issue with my room, the staff moved me to a new room straight away. The room was fine, clean bedding, good pillows, tv, bathroom clean, fluffy towels. Guy on reception was really helpful. The entrance and stairs really let the hotel down. Its in a really good location overlooking the sea. But was a bit noisy from nearby pubs, but nothing major.

We have stayed here a few times and each time it gets worse.we usually request room 303 top floor on the corner but it was not available due to flooding This time the whole place smelt of damp to be fair the guy on reception did come up and spray air freshener didnt help no toilet rolls either.shower black mould all round the tray on the plus side its a great location. Standing out side the front door look up and there was a window missing on the 1st floor and you could see the ceiling was down pigeons flying in and out no wounder it smells of damp carpets are filthy and no one hoovered for the 3 days we were there Definitely wont stay again such a shame as we love the location but it needs a lot of money spent on it

I stayed at this hotel for four days, and overall the experience was just okay. The biggest issue was the condition of the room. There was very poor ventilation and barely any space, which made the stay uncomfortable. The room also looked nothing like the photos shown on the website, which was disappointing. The carpet, bathroom, and even the walls were covered in dust, as if the room hadn’t been properly cleaned in a long time. For a hotel stay, cleanliness is the bare minimum, and unfortunately this fell far below expectations. The one positive was the location—it was convenient and easy to get around. However, the hotel itself was not clean, and it’s not somewhere I would choose to stay again or pay for in the future.
