Quite a rundown seaside hotel, needs a refurb, but as a last minute booking for 1 night the room was fine, clean, spacious. Tiny TV too far from the bed if that is your thing. On site parking was unexpected, reasonable, but book in advance at peak times, not a lot of it. Cannot comment on food, hotel breakfast is something I often give a miss.

My stay was very good, the staff were very friendly and helpful, because it was a trip not planned as my father was rushed into hospital. The staff were very helpful throughout our stay.

Chilled out 2 night break

Room was clean and bed comfy. Room was facing the main road, but you couldn't hear the traffic. Only problem was very creaky floorboards and not enough hot water to run a bath. Also would of been nice to have just a residents only bit of bar. The steam bar was always busy and tables full

Nice stay

Nice hotel. Beautiful views in the bar/ dining area. Staff were helpful. Room was ok. Needed an update. We were horrified to discover bloody stained sheets on our bed and lots of body hairs. We are convinced the bed had not been changed. Staff changed the bed. I made a complaint but no response from the manager. Parking outside the front door was perfect. Although we were over charged for this. The entertainment on Saturday night was great. Good was nice.
