Overnight stay

It is a basic 3* hotel, no frills but great location with sea views. No bathroom toiletries…a pump on the wall which was empty but luckily we brought our own. No toilet brush! Room was a good size. 1 pillow only! So basic but good for money and service.

Lovely, clean & friendly staff

There is a 24hr reception desk. I took my mom and my moms friend and they are elderly and require walking aids. I did send a message via the hotels.com app but it never reached the hotel. The filippino receptionist (I forgot his name, sorry) was very helpful and did everything he could to change the rooms so that we were still close together and that my mom had a room on the ground floor and that it was accessable. The rooms were big and spacious with a king bed and en-suite. Was very clean. Would definitely stay again. Also dog friendly so can take your fury friends with you.

Bedding smelt. Had it changed and the new set smelt too. There was a damp dirty smell throughout the hotel. The carpet throughout was worn and dirty. Shower was very low pressure. Disappointed really, although the staff were very helpful and friendly. Wouldn’t stay again.

Disappointing - Clean the toilets, don't mask it!

As a budget hotel this place is OK. The general vibe of the place is that it's a bit tired and run down. The dated carpets haven't been hoovered in a long while. There was a strong smell of toilets when we arrived and then a strong smell of bleach and toilets after a coach of people arrived. The stairs are a mystery and only worked them out after countless runs downstairs to smoke. The wondows are locked 'for safety' and the tiny little pillows kept falling down the back of the bed that kept sliding away from the wall. I stay in Eastbourne regualry and this place was almost double the cost of others and nowhere near the same quality. The lady on reception was lovely though.

Great value hotel, excellent location

Stayed two nights in a Double Room with Sea View which had a nice view of the beach and pier; worth the upgrade. The room was a great size, tastefully decorated, kept clean and well equipped with amenities such as tea making facilities, hair dryer, desk fan, ironing facilities. The room upgrade included breakfast; standard hotel buffet breakfast, plenty on offer, refreshed regularly, overall good value. Staff courteous and professional throughout the service. Everything we asked from reception was granted efficiently. Bath was very slippery, as they often are. There was a sign saying a bath mat is available if you ask at reception but I think this would be better provided by default. Yes in some areas the hotel needs a bit of TLC but you have to understand that hospitality have had a horrendous few years for business and are likely in recovery/survival mode; give them a chance to recover first with a good season! A chipped veneer or two can wait! Would definitely return.

Mixed feelings but wouldn’t return

Room - clean, over bath shower excellent, only 2 lge towels and 1 small, no non slip mat or bath bath. Pillows 1 each had to ask for extra. Check in - no information given re times for breakfast etc or where anything was. Lift not working for 2 days we were there Breakfast - staff very friendly but very disorganised customers and staff had no idea about the system only part self service and minimal sitting area. Bar - apparently if we wanted a drink we had to ask receptionist they would then unlock bar serve us a drink then lock up again as they were responsible for both jobs . So we chose to go to local friendly bar across the road . So no relaxing at the bar with a coffee after a long journey Smoke alarm in room not sure if this was connected as it never seemed to blink.

Lo mejor, la cercanía a la playa. El hotel por fuera está bastante deteriorado, necesita una mejora urgentemente. El acceso a las habitaciones parece el pasillo de un barco con camarotes. La habitación donde nos alojamos era muy amplia, y cómoda. La pega es que no tienen armario, solo una estantería y 4 perchas. El baño era pequeño y la bañera demasiado alta para entrar de manera cómoda. La cama era grande y cómoda. El servicio de habitaciones esperáramos que hubiera entrado a limpiar por la mañana, y no fue así, cuando llegamos después de comer para descansar aún no habían venido. El desayuno es un pequeño buffet, eché de menos fruta fresca y buen café, pero en general aceptable

Unsatisfactory

This hotel is a little tired but was a good location for me as my daughter lives not far away , however when I got back to my room from being out for the day my bathroom smelt like cigarettes and my towel that had been changed smelt not very nice also , our bin hadn’t been emptied so I didn’t understand why they bothered to service our room as we were only staying for two nights.
