The staff were helpful however we had booked 4 rooms had to move one as room smelt dreadfully damp. Our room was quiet bedding clean and towels clean. No shower gel in shower and asked for this didn’t arrive. The shower was dreadful black and mouldy needed a good clean. No lighting in the corridor which made it hard to find room

The room was adequate. Access room so a large shower room. Sea view but windows steamed up so couldn't see out. The double glazing was poor and needed replaced. We had a heater which kept the room reasonably warm. Friends had the breakfast we didn't book it . The breakfast consisted of cereal, toast and cold boiled eggs the same each day. Near the Tower Ballroom which is what we wanted for our dancing event there.

Very clean comfortable room, staff very friendly and courteous
The room was cold and draughty. The chairs in the breakfast room which are shaped like a woman’s naked backside and legs are misogynistic and inappropriate.

Good enough location, but a terrible hotel. The room was stiflingly hot, as a fan heater was left plugged in before we arrived. No water was coming from the taps throughout the night, only a strange hissing sound. I've stayed in many hotels, but this is the worst.

Great value for money and a great location.
Only choose the basic room as we were out most of the weekend.
Have had a superior room before and is a good size room.
The whole place needs refurbishing. The windows were filthy. The bathroom full of mould around the edges when you have a shower it overflow cause the water is not draining. Quick enough cause through block drains have to leave the bathroom tap on for about 8 minutes, before you get hot water. Bed made properly there was no sugar no milk in the little trays I will not be staying here again.

it was ok for the. cost. breakfast a bit disappointing
Staff were helpful. Bed not to bad for 1 night stay. Bathroom had mold on the tiles leaky under the sink. The toilet very low like its sunk so if your tall not the ideal loo. Could of had more than 2 sachets of coffee as many people dont use 1 for a mug. Pretty dull view back end of property steps from.my window so would of thought the rate would of been a bit lower than what i paid.
Hotel does need some updating the carpet is well worn throughout the hotel. No.parking which isnt ideal if you were there longer than a night. Further up the road Talbot parking they charge £10 for 24 hours. As long as you enter your reg number at reception . Lifts had a few issue but maybe a temporary issue.
