Location Room had just been painted very strong smell of paint and varnish. Had to ask for bath mats and shower curtain. No biscuits with room refreshments . Lacking in the finer points of a hotel ie tissuies etc in room . could be better.

Breakfast was nice. Room was in what can only be described as a converted garage block. Not in main building. Told to go around to find. Could not see any access into the main hotel from my room. Windows did not close properly. Toilet had been used and not flushed! Car park was totally full but was advertised as no reservation required. Had it not been a last minute booking I would have asked for a refund and found somewhere else. Would definitely not pay the full rate they were asking for. Have stayed in other Torquay hotels which charged less but were much better.

The overall ambience and friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff. The rooms were clean and the beds very comfortable. Water was hot. the food was excellent...both breakfast and dinner. Liked the fact that chefs came and spoke with the customers The bedroom was far too hot but this was rectified immediately on request

entertainment Larg variation in prices for the same accomadation, we paid £50 more than our friends and £24 more than other friends who had dinner included, ours was only B&B. Very narrow carridors, beds with thin matresses,polistirene tiles on ceilings (fire hasard). We could not sleep because the noise from roudy guests and slamming doors, all in all very poor.
