Good value stay
Have stayed here once before. Since that time they have made some changes to the rooms to upgrade them. Rooms are clean. It takes a while for hot water to run in the shower and the flow is week but it’s an old building. This is a nice hotel for the price paid. Breakfast is included and of a reasonable standard. Staff are friendly. There’s some parking and off street parking is available for free.

Friendly staff, great location and reasonably priced. If I had to mention 1 negative, it's that the shower in the room I had was a bit small. Apart from that, highly recommend :)

Lovely Seaview and good location
Staff very welcoming. Some public areas, hall, stairs reception in need of updating. Bedroom and bathroom very clean, although furniture a bit tired. Very comfortable bed. Full English breakfast was lovely. Freshly cooked and arrived hot. Although would have liked to have had the choice of brown bread. Overall good value for money.
