    It is a little old and run down now, but is perfectly usable and comfortable. I rather liked it as it's not a chain and has some character.

    Everything worked and was comfortable and clean. Breakfast OK - not haute cuisine, but fresh and substantial, served with grace by the young wait staff. Regular 22 bus just along the road for getting in and out of town, although the downhill walk to town also very pleasant - about 10 minutes. Plenty of shops, cafes etc within 10 minutes walk, both downhill and uphill (try the Ilsham cafe uphill -fabulous). Comfy bed, functional shower. Fantastic value for money.

    Everything worked, bed and room were comfy, 22 bus right outside to and from town (or 10 minute walk down to the harbour). Cheap. Nearby shops, cafes and restaurants all within 10 minute walk. Breakfast was hot and fresh. The rooms and hotel itself are know quite old but perfectly functional. Staff were all competent and friendly.

    Not much I didn't like. I like the traditional feel of the hotel however it is a little tired in places and could do with some TLC. But that costs money and things are tight but it was very good value for money.

    My room was clean and functional and had everything I needed. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was lovely and hot. The staff were excellent. Friendly and welcoming. There was a car park at the back which was useful. Breakfast was all waiter service and ideal for me as I was able to order exactly what I wanted. There was a bar and lounge and separate pool table room. There was also an entertainment area where acts would play in the height of the season. I was walking the South West Coast path and found the location and busses worked well for me. It was excellent value for money and I'd stay again.

    A half an hour breakfast (especially at 8:30 which is quite early for a weekend) is a little silly. I missed breakfast both days despite being down before 9AM.

    Very cheap, bed was clean, room was clean, location was ok (up a hill but not too bad)

    The free WiFi didn't stretch as far as my room, but my own system compensated for that. Aside from that, I had no complaints.

    The hotel is in a quite quiet location, but not close enough to the sea as far as walking to it is concerned. The breakfast was OK, but not exceptional - good for the money paid.

    There are an awful lot of fire doors that were constantly being slammed shut as people moved up and down the corridors!

    Had a very warm welcome at reception and breakfast was included in the price so it was a real bargain!

    The weather but you can't blame the hotel for that some people can always find something to moan about

    I didn't actually stay at the Burlington it was a late change to another hotel which was fine no problems at all
