Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Great night's sleep, everything else average
My stay was good overall, bedroom was lovely and clean, the bed was comfortable and I slept very well. The other facilities... not so great. I didn't have the breakfast because the produce didnt look fresh and I'm glad I didn't pay for it. Also the leisure facilities were not fully working, sauna and steam rooms were out of service. They were child-friendly which is fine but trying to relax in a pool with screaming children isn't great, so I wish they had perhaps adult-only times? I'd return for a great nights sleep but wouldn't use the facilities and I'd skip the breakfast again

Brilliant staff
Good hotel, staff were really friendly and helpful. needs abit of a update but for the price really good hotel. had a issue with our radiator and within 10 minutes they had a heater brought up to us. the bed pretty comfy and breakfast was definitely worth the money a lot of choice to choose from. Just as we was leaving it was pouring with rain so I asked at reception if there was any taxis we could call, she was very helpful and pressed a button and told us that it would be with us in 5 mins.

Restaurant staff lovely and friendly, reception staff a bit quiet and not very chatty. Pool freezing cold and not very inviting. Room lovely though bathroom needs touching up and towels really naff and old. Hotel needs a bit of updating as looks a bit tired and old fashioned. Good location though for the town and beach.

Fabulous and friendly hotel
Excellent room with a refurbished en-suite. Fab check in with our room being moved due to a Xmas party on at the hotel and that’s even before we got to our room. Buffet breakfast delicious with a wide variety of choice and cooked breakfast hot. Was booked for 2 nights but now extended it for an extra couple of nights.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The location was good, close to the seafront and centre of town. The (compact) room was very cramped, I had to turn sideways to pass the wardobe and could touch the walls from the bed and there was nowhere to put a suitcase down! The shower knob didn’t work, phone in room didn’t work, dust on the lights in the bathroom, tiny towels, no toiletries. It was ok, but I would rather use the Premier Inn next time for the price.
