Really enjoyed our stay here, it is dated, the floorboards do creak but if you want 5 star then you have to pay for it,staff are very friendly, the breakfasts are amazing, the bedroom was clean as was the bedding which was important,we had a sea view with a shared balcony, there was a model railway exibition on in the leas cliff hall so out hotel was full, this did not impact on the service, very happy to have stayed here.the bathrooms would benift from a heated towel rail as it can be cold when you get out of the shower, I must admit the shower lacked power and wished I had taken a bath instead.
