Nice, cheap clean place to stay. It's very basic but thats all we were after. If we were to stay in Torquay again, we would probably stay in the same hotel. Although be aware there are no plug sockets near the beds

Had a 2 night stay, for a weekend away with the husband. Bed was comfortable, could of been a little cleaner in places. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We stayed when the heatwave was on, and staff helped to accommodate the heat in the room by finding a portable fan for the room. Would definitely go back, as a great sociable place to stay. The bingo everynight, and shows on was alot of fun. Close to the harbour and Princess gardens. With lots of shops, pubs and restaurants around.

Disliked: Amenities
Room 215 may be they should look inside the shower maybe the Wobbly toilet roll holder could be replaced to save chasing the toilet roll around the bathroom the other thing was it had nasty plastic glasses in the bathroom one of which had a big crack in it but overall 70 quid stay it was pretty average.
