Comfortable a bit dated but clean but when I mean dated I mean lick off paint but as everyone they probably ain’t getting spare cash to update it
The standard double room was adequate but not comfortable. Bathroom was clean but all paintwork needed a repaint. This was the same for the bedroom where skirting boards were scuffed. The surface top of the desk in the room was scarred and marked. Only one “easy chair”, which was not there for comfort, in a double room! Minimal tea and coffee but I asked for more at reception and was asked for my room number too!!
The room and hotel in general felt unloved. The lift was out of order for two of the three days I stayed. Communal corridors and all carpeting needs updating or a professional clean. Paintwork needed cleaning and painting.
The bed was very uncomfortable- a new mattress should be a priority. I used the duvet and slept “on it” as extra cushioning.
The only positives were the “black out” curtailing, the helpful staff, and that it was an easy walk to the station and to the beach too.
I would not stay here again - I’d rather pay extra to have a decent night’s sleep and not worry about which spring I was going to roll over next!
No the room we stayed in was on the top floor and the lift was out of order, me and my wife have mobility issues and struggled with all the stairs. The decor was shabby, bed linen dirty, room smelt of damp. One small window. Massive crack above window. Key card took didn’t work properly.
The rooms have got a bad smell had to go and buy an air freshener Brown water out of the taps Hair in the bed looking forward to the breakfast put me off of it good entertainment
Dusty, old and disgusting. Didn’t even bother checking into reception. The pool was green and half empty, corridors were covered in dust and cockroaches and sick all over the reception toilet floor!!!
No room service(towels coffee)entire stay,guests led on front steps smoking,buffet food not restaurant. Ideal hotel for workman or poor pensioners because thats all that were there. Would not recommend.
Hardly any guests spoke english We felt a minority. Lift out of order stairways awkward doors dirty ,Bed uncomfortablle.zThe whole hotel needs a refit,!!
