    No entertainment

    The President never fails to impress, so friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, excellent location, right on a tram station. The food is cooked to near perfection (melt in the mouth meats), with 3 choices of evening dinner

    Although there was lifts, the we still had to walk down and up some stairs to get to our room which was a bit difficult with a buggy.

    Really lovely stay for me and my 2 kids. Food was amazing! And sea view dining room was lovely

    When we first got there to check in it took the security guard 15mins to answer the bell I kept ringing it for attention. We didn't get breakfast as we was not told the times etc...

    Room was clean and tidy. Bed was comfortable.

    Not the cleanest of places, grime around the bathroom. The shower was very low pressure and mostly cold! Cleaners were very loud in the mornings in the rooms around us! We got stuck in the lift in the hotel! As did other people during our stay! Avoid the lift!

    Not too far from town

    I couldn't get an evening meal and, for part of the trip the lift wasn't working.

    I liked the coffee and bar area and everything was clean and reasonably priced.

    Stayed in room 309 large cracks on the headboard wall, could not watch TV as on the window wall to the left of the bed and fixed to the wall so other than sit on the side of the bed to watch or get a sore neck, Bathroom window handle to close broken so spaces between window and frame stuffed with foam. We had gales, high winds rain so the noise was very loud which also made the bathroom very cold as no heating in the room, also the double glazing has blown so limited view of the sea.

    Only met four staff, they were friendly and cheerful, we did not use the dining room for breakfast or dinner but did have a few drinks in the afternoons. The bed was not very comfortable but the linen and Towles were of good quality and clean, the house person did a good job considering what she has to work with.

    We stayed for 3 nights and our room was not cleaned once. We asked each morning for the room to be cleaned but was still not done. Tea and coffee were not put in rooms either. We had to keep going downstairs to ask ,when they should of been put in every morning. Heating was not on so had to keep asking for it to go on as rooms were cold in the evening and we had children. Hotel staff were good. Breakfast was also good. Shame as quite a nice hotel if they kept to standard to clean rooms and change towels.

    Good lococation and staff were ok.

    There’s clearly a lot of damp in the building. The paint was flaking from the walls. There was mould on the windows. The shower was appalling. It took five minutes to heat up (either scalding or cold) and the pressure was non existent. The shower basin itself was full of black bits. The bed was not comfy - it leant to one side.

    The staff were pleasant.

    There was a smell in the bathroom which didn’t subside the time we were there. There was a terrible smell in the hallway (smelled like feet or dog) outside our room which was so bad, we had to either hold our noses or breathe through our mouths. Also, the noise was too much from downstairs. We were on the 2nd floor and the karaoke was so loud we could swear it was next door. Our neighbours also had a shouting match with someone outside our door in the middle of the night resulting in 2 hours sleep for me on our first night.

    It was a perfect location for us. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom seemed brand new and clean.

    7 pounds to park so paid it but if you leave your space you have lost it so someone else pays 7 pounds and it's there's is that even legal . Kids running about in the middle of the night shouting screaming banging on our room door woke us up at 11.30 pm told guy at reception he did not seem bothered. Our window had sea view could not see out it due to condensation everywhere.

    Location was great . Next to the sea . Chinese takeaway near buy .
