Has an unpleasant smell of being very old - old walls, old carpets, etc The carpet in the room and the floor in the bathroom were not immaculately clean No breakfast options

The hotel has a very good location - right in the seafront, close to the railway station, even has a bus stop nearby. Comfy beds

Was a little basic and tired looking hotel and room. Sink still had soap/toothpaste mess when we arrived. TV was tiny and off centre, making it hard for my other half to see from the bed

It was cheap and cheerful

Its location

The room was dusty and didn't have much of furnitures. There was no table or chairs. No fridge. Otherwise good.

We did like the location of the hotel.

I wasn’t aware that a £30 deposit was taken at check in and this had to be a card not contactless. Luckily I had my card details although not the card itself.

It was in a beautiful location, close to town centre, beach and The Leas. Staff were efficient and friendly. Hotel has seen better days and looks as if it’s being refurbished but it was clean and fairly priced.

Room was very basic, no pictures on walls, nothing homely, chair or table , very stark but it was very clean and our room looked like it had recently been painted. Mattress needed changing as it was a "meet in the middle" kinda night!

Receptionist/barmaid Emily, was exceptional, very friendly very helpful

It is in the early stages of a makeover - which means no food facilities (although there is a small bar). I think our room had been modernised but clearly they are not going for a particularly high standard. The makeover seems to have stalled. I hope they complete it because there is plenty of potential for a lovely period residence but there is a hell of a lot to do.

Excellent location, brilliant wifi, warm, reliable (if small) lift, spacious room with high ceiling and picture windows overlooking Leas and sea, friendly reception staff. Nice period pictures on walls.

Rooms did not have any ventilation and got extremely warm and stuffy. Even when there were raging winds outside the air in the room was stale and uncirculated. Very tiny TV in the room. Not enough plug points.

Staff were amazing. Super helpful and accommodating. Very friendly. Room was spacious and clean.

Old furnitures. Basic furnitures were missing. Plus the room looks old fashioned. The cups were not clean. Toiletries are very basic. Not good quality. Overall quality needs a lot of improvement including stairs and lobby

You have to pay for parking up to 6.pm if you get there to check in on time. Hotel doesn't give you a permit to park. TV in the room was tiny like a computer monitor, but other than that it was lovely would stay there again.

Room has recently been freshly painted and it had a bath. Storage was perfect as it had a built in wardrobe in the bathroom and dressing table. Location was great right across from the beach. Hubby and I took a walk along the promenade. Local shops that are a ten min walk. Had a Primark and an Asda. Has a lift which was great as we were on the 3rd floor.

Sad to see the the hotel is being redecorated and the quirky, unusual, wallpapers in the bedrooms are being replaced. The rooms now have very bland grey and white emulsion, grey curtains and grey carpet. Our featureless room could have been in a hospital. Little things could be improved. There were no plastic glasses in the bathroom (as is customary) but the kind receptionist found some paper cups for us. There is one light over the bed, rather than individual bedside lights. No sockets by the bed so phones etc had to be charged on the opposite side of the room on the chest of drawers, next to the tea making facilities.

We have been to the hotel several times before and return because we like it. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. There are stunning views from the balcony.
