Cheap - good value for the money - but don't expect luxury Bedroom floor needed vacuuming - was not very clean. Paint peeling off in the bathroom. The title "sea view" was correct - but it was possible to see much more of the sea in the cheaper room not called sea view!

The location was nice The room was just far too cold, I would have been better sleeping in my car! It seriously was a joke! The phones were not working in the rooms, just terrible! Keeping the room warm is not rocket science, its common sense!

The Salisbury hotel is a bit old and tired. Could do with a good going over, chairs uncomfortable, bedding that doesn't fit the bed, curtains hanging off the rail, housekeeping needs to be updated on how to clean a room, dust on the skirtings, tv, top of wardrobe. Pillows on the bed should not be feather because of allergy problems, my partner suffered a great deal because of the dust. Shower and toilet stained, shower didn't function properly. The dining room was cold. Had to paid five pound deposit for the tv remote control. This room is not worth the normal 70.00 a night, we paid 42.50 even this is a bit too much in our opinion considering the condition of the hotel/room.

Despite some of the rather negative reviews,there is nothing wrong with this hotel as with most things in life you get what you pay for. The room was comfortable , clean and warm and huge, breakfast was fine, friendly staff,relaxed atmosphere Over the Hotel nothing, stupid complaints plenty, if you want luxury be prepared to pay for it.
