    The room was smaller than I expected as the two single beds that were advertised were on top of each other. The little extras, (biscuits and toiletries, etc.), were not as nice as I would have hoped.

    The breakfast was excellent, the room was clean, and the staff were very helpful.

    An English seaside hotel

    • Solo traveller

    • Stayed 2 nights

    The bedroom was dated and needs a spruce up. This single room is opposite the lift which is noisy but to be fair everyone had used it by about 10:30 pm The noise from an extractor of some kind starts at 7 am so beware if you like a lie in. I had a very bouncy mattress which may not be to everyone's taste.

    I liked that it was quirky and that the staff were really very good. The pool was an added bonus. Location wise it's great for both the seafront and town. Public areas were clean and tidy and the evening food was good. I had drinks on both patio areas...lovely. Parking is plentiful but possibly a little tight for some. Think typical English seaside hotel and embrace it...and just to be clear, the staff really are great.

    A little more coffee in the room would of been appreciated. We had enough for one small brew. Beyond that it was perfectly good.

    Perfect location as it was 2 minutes to town centre and a further 2 minutes to the seafront. Staff were very pleasant on arrival and throughout.

    I nearly asked to move room when I arrived... the lift shaft is too noisy for room 28. I spoke to my partner by phone who correctly highlighted that everyone will be in bed by ten. True but I missed out on an afternoon nap after a very tiring day.

    Excellent hotel character. Lovely staff... very caring... I watched one of your housekeepers really going beyond to help an elderly visitor navigate three steps

    Could hear the lift every time it was used from my bedroom. Sound proofing needed there. Pool was nice but had to be accessed by walking across the car park. Car parking difficult particularly for large cars.

    Really helpful staff and I didn't at any time feel unsafe travelling on my own. Food was lovely and seasonal and a decent choice which changed daily.

    Rooms need modernising and brightening up. Curtains do not block out the light which is tricky in the summer, particularly with children. Whilst we enjoyed our stay, we do feel the price was high for these rooms. Although, for the location and time of year we understand prices would be on the higher side.

    The staff were all friendly and welcoming. We all enjoyed the swimming pool. We had a nice lunch on one of the days. Very good location, short walk to the beach.
