Is not that it's not kept clean. it's just that its an old tired building in need of updating. The staff were fantastic though. Had a few issues (of my own making) and despite being very busy, they couldn't have been nicer. I hope they are well paid. Parking is a bit sketchy and only 1 space left.

Bad!

The room we booked was filthy lot as seen in these pictures. An Asian receptionist told us there is no other room to change to and the next morning when I payed more more , they quickly gave us another room that’s better. The Receptionist was rude and talking to loud in front of everyone on matters that needs addressed privately. Blood stains in bed, rooms stinks with no ventilation or air condition and loads of other issues

Check-in took a while with a lot of people turning up at the same time. Room was okay but the whole place was a bit tired (beer garden overgrown and unloved). Think they were short-staffed but, despite this, the staff coped well and were helpful and cheerful. All-in-all, for the rate we paid, we felt it was good value.

I checked in and checked out within 30 minutes. The place was horrible, not fit for human dwelling, will not recommend anyone. Stairs to 3rd floor not carpeted and the carpet in the hotel is ancient and dirty, beds look horrible, not as they appear in pictures. I checked out as soon as I saw the room.

Manageress and receptioinists really excellent.Lack of a lift (broken for a long time) and maze like setup of corridors and rooms quite confusing and got lost several times. Room reputedly on third floor was actually fifth floor when walking up stairs. Not easy when carrying luggage. Last two floors via fire escape stairs, no carpets and low lights. But all amenitiies provided in room.

First room had no window but we asked to change. Room was fine, needed bits touching up so it isn't immaculate, but with the price you can't complain. Was a pool quote busy think the swimming system for waiting needs to be improved. Massive hotel, had arcade area, some parking, area to sit outside, live entertainment, and best of all it was quiet so we slept. Can't complain. Would return and very family friendly. Has breakfast and dinner options but we didn't eat so cannot review. About half hour from town walking and ten mins from the beach.
