Not aware that the en-suite facilities were in another building, that were up a street that was a mixed bag of nice residences and run down homes.People coming and going through the night, making a noise talking on their phones in the corridor outside our room. Couple in next room having a blazing argument at 1.00 in the morning. Smelt of smoke , especially in shower room, but resonated in the whole room.Shower needed a deep clean, it was stained and the tray was dirty looking. Bedding was clean. Should have been a King size bed, was only a small double.

We can do better Britain 🇬🇧

Hard to believe how underdeveloped this area of an English coastline is. People are very hospitable and kind, but the infrastructure is comparable to so called third world countries …

awful guesthouse not a hotel.below 1 star dirty

Wasnt aware that we were not booked to a hotel and that we had to walk to a guest house 5 mins down the road this information was never shared with us. Hotel bar is rowdy, there was a fight and the customers in the bar clearly on drugs. had my phone stolen by a women who also the room 3/44 tired and dated curtains hanging off rail, wardrobe old and falling apart door falling off bed side table. dirty cushions on bed, carpets floor had not been hovered, toilet seat broken. generally musty and not fir for purpose, was told breakfast included on check in but no option given for room only had to return to main pub by 9am, there was no way id eat in this place so we skipped the breakfast and went else where to eat. I wo9uld not recommend this place to any one and would never stay here again below 1 star
