Pleasantly surprised!

I didn’t have high expectations having read some reviews and was drawn by the novelty of the name, and it being minutes from my main destination, as well as the seafront. However, I had a great one night stay. Beforehand, I asked if I could leave my bike my room, as I was visiting for a triathlon. No problem at all, and most accommodating and even gave me a downstairs room to make it easier leaving very early next morning. I arrived a couple of hours before my official check in time, but was given the key to the room no problem. Yes, the décor was a bit dated, but my room was clean, tidy and well-stocked, including with fridge and microwave. Others have talked about noise – if there was any, it certainly didn’t wake me up. and I had the window open. Pleasantly surprised, and I’d happily stay again.

A sleepless night in not-so-Great Yarmouth

We arrived & my friend went into Fawlty Towers & was appalled at state of kitchen & asked to use w.c & If she hadn’t been desperate would have changed her mind as it was dirty & smelly. She was told our room had a leak & was out of use so they (Patricia?) would arrange alternative accommodation. When we arrived later at the Villa Rose we were dismayed to find we had a double room & not a twin room as we had booked. We called Fawlty Towers who said there was nothing else available & abruptly put the phone down on us. We are both in our mid 70’s & each have health conditions that give us disturbed sleep. Can you imagine us both trying to get to sleep whilst sharing a bed! Sleep was impossible.

Bathroom was clean an the towels/bin change was spot on.Fridge an microwave was a bonus. The location is ideal for cinema/arcades /various eating places all within nice walking distance . The drawer/cupboards could gave been cleaner in corners . Room was adequate but the bedding comfort quality could have been much better was poor in my opinion for that room .
