Lovely, cosy B&B in an excellent central location on the promenade. Friendly and welcoming staff and a tasty breakfast included. Hotel is under renovation, but room was cosy and comfortable.
Upon arrival the hotel was undergoing refurbishment and it showed - the receptionist was a vacuuming the front stairs and then upon going up to my room the rest of the paint work was tired and the carpets worn- my room was at best a room with very dated pine furniture and worn carpet-the ensuite was freezing due to no heating and the shower cubicle rotten at the base and the whole room was a lack lustre mess and the mattress....well more like a bag with springs!!!
Easy check in. Very friendly lady at check in. Room was very comfortable and will definitely stay again the next time i'm in the area

Staff were very good. Helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent. Bed comfy but room freezing cold as were the corridors. We were given an extra heater. Shower was mouldy. Rooms need refurbishing. Hope it’s not just the front being done.
Excellent staff at reception very helpful, Andrew at breakfast is always very cheerful and quick with coffee tea and toast, lovely breakfast and perfect location, cleaner's are excellent and very friendly,

All staff very helpful. Breakfast very good. Property very worn. Bathroom was appalling.
Disgusting everything was wrong with it. And it’s a building site out front. needs to close down hopefully the works are to be carried on inside hotel.
I had to check out the following morning it was so bad. I stayed the first night as u spent 8 hours travelling.
The room was clean and tidy and lucky for me the room was fairly noise free. As I was playing in a chess Congress which was over the weekend.i could not fault the staff as they were very friendly and outgoing.Breakfast was very good and have not had any other issues . Well done Team as I had a nice relaxed stay.
Hotel is being refurbished at the front but my room at the backn was spotlessly clean with Tv and tea/coffe facilities. Breakfast in the morning starts at 6.30am which is great for those of us that are working
We were given a room that felt dirty, I asked to swap the staff obliged and were really attentive. The hotel is run down but undergoing refurbishments which are really needed, the area is lovely the staff are great but the hotel itself is in dire need of a clean and refurb, not sure if we would go back as there are other options in the area that look much nicer

Just a one night stay in the area. I only paid £41 for the night so didn’t expect too much.
Perfect location for the sea front and Spanish City, town centre in easy walking distance. Rooms at the front will have a fabulous view when work is completed.
Firstly the hotel is undergoing major renovations so looks a mess at the front - new bar and dining facilities planned. Inside it is very much on the old side but very clean from what I could see. Friendly and helpful staff. First class breakfast in terms of choice and quality.
I would quite happily stay again.
Although renovations are taking place the hotel was comfortable and clean (as was reasonably expected under the present circumstances). The staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was brilliant with pleasant staff on hand and fresh hot food available.
I would definitely stay here again
