    First room we stayed in was very hot with no air con. Window opened a small way which did not let air flow in. It was noisy due to generators outside and pigeons on window sill. Bathroom was minute.

    Lovely building, nice decoration, tired in parts.

    Not a lot of storage for clothes in the room and nowhere to hang our coats Was not informed that the breakfast was an additional £5 if you didn’t pre book which I felt made the breakfast not great value for money at £17.95 if we had known it was not £12 as previously advised we would not have had it!

    Room was clean and staff very friendly

    Construction work on seafront was a bit of an eye sore and had we known, probably would have booked a mews room. Mostly clean but we’re a few marks left on coffee table.

    Great decor in communal areas and bedroom. Mostly super clean. Parking around the back was usefully located.

    The check in was a nightmare … we booked via booking.com X 5 rooms, we was told during check in that our card had been declined so they wanted payment again but we showed them the transaction on our account so they had to refund the extra cost and they double charged us for parking. It was all sorted in the end but it caused a lengthy check in… unfortunately time we didn’t have as we were already running late for an event due to traffic.

    The staff was very friendly and welcoming

    It's a very dated hotel and where I stayed in the Mews I expected more modern rooms and larger for £180 a night. My room was also next to the floor entry door which swung back and slammed very loudly when closed and this should be a cheap simple fix.

    Staff are fantastic and extremely lovely and welcoming across the board. Shout out to Barry who is a gem and the hotel is lucky to have him.

    The room was ground floor near the fire escape - it’s fine for short stay but view isn’t great but you get what you pay for ! Managed to get sea front view for breakfast - windows could do with a good scrub !

    Price for a last minute booking was fab -location was lovely by the sea front and staff were so friendly . Friday night 9pm Check in was busy - and thankfully hotel was quiet as I had a work meeting next day ! Slept great - shower was good and breakfast hash browns did the job! Barry on reception was so warm and caring and Ben in restaurant was so kind - I want to come back !
