Very tired property and the room was unbearably hot even with the tiny fan going the whole time. The shower is scalding hot or cool - no in between. Apparently our carpet had been replaced only two weeks ago but the room smelt of dog wee/stale odours. The bathroom needs regrouting. The first impression isn’t great as you enter - a big hole in the wall where someone has maybe kicked it or punched it or something. Very odd that it hasn’t been fixed. Staff are lovely though. That’s one positive. But definitely won’t be back purely based on the tiny room and the need for a refurbishment and relatively expensive for what you get. Sorry.

Disgusting bathroom

I just wish there was a bit more pride taken in hygiene standards. Ultimately, this comes down to management — if the managers don’t set even the most basic levels, the cleaners will naturally cut corners. The room itself was not clean. The walls had random dents and visible damage, while the shower area was covered in mould and dust had gathered everywhere. A basic bottle of bleach costs less than £1, so there’s really no excuse not to maintain the bathroom properly. On a positive note, the reception staff were very friendly and welcoming.

The property was okay, and had only breakfast to offer, the rooms were stuck in a time warp. Very outdated and needed replacing. The cost of the limited parking was overpriced. Parking in the road outside hotel is free.

Stayed with a friend via work. We had room 211. A twin. Arrived pretty much on 1500 at check in time. Staff were flat out and we were asked to wait 15 mins for our room to be ready. Not a problem. Wed have waited. But what was amazing was the offer of a drink whilst we waited. After travelling 4 hours, this was gratefully received. All staff we came across were superb, humorous and very friendly. The room Was spacious, clean and tidy. Tv a little small if you’re going to be in the room but we weren’t fussed by this as we were heading out for work drinks and food. Shower was amazing powerful and hot. Nice view from the Maggie bay window too. Bar was a good area with TVs if you wanted them. Good selection of drinks. Hotel very convenient for town and the sea front. We’ll be returning for sure. Thank you . Mr cantwell

Nice stay but tired hotel

The staff here were fab and so friendly and helpful. The bed was really comfy but the hotel is tired. I imagine being an old building the upkeep must be huge! The bathroom definitely needed an upgrade and the windows need refurb/ replacement. We didn't eat here so I can't comment on the food. Having said this it wouldn't stop me staying here again. The hotel is in a good central location.
