It wasn’t the most modern of hotels but it was great value in a brilliant location, on the seafront & by the pier. We had a sea view and despite reviews of noise, we were there Saturday & Sunday night and it was quiet. The staff were pleasant and accommodating. The room was clean, warm & comfortable. Would come again thank you.

Enjoyable stay overall. Helpful staff, GREAT location, Lift, Lovley sea view, hair dryer- iron+ board avaliable too. The only down fall was the room as well as the lobby + lift needed a really good clean. The room could be updated a little if you was to be really picky. There is NO car park, you have to find parking along the street which could be a stuggle but we managed to find a spot easily luckily (£20 a day) The bar down below is loud on the weekend at night time but quieter on week days ( we sleep to background noise so we didn’t mind however others may).The hotel entrance is down a side street ( not pictured on the website ). Not sure if the hotel serves food as we ate out everyday as there was so many options.The location is spot on close to everything! Overall we had a great stay and would stay again :)
