Despite the place being small and very dated the staff were really accommodating and changed the room we were in immediately after we noticed the toilet leaking
Its really not worth 70 pund a night i had a shower and because the shower tray was all split and broke it blew the electrics in the hotel the ceiling tiels are all damaged and wiers hanging out it needs shutting down and updateing

Basic but adequate.
Hotel is situated on the road opposite the South Pier. No Breakfast or a bar unfortunately but if you are looking for somewhere cheap and cheerful just to sleep for a night or two, then it's fine.
Very little security, there was supposed to be a key code to get through the front door… the door was never locked.
I’m sure place was last decorated in the 70’s! Dirty net curtains with cigarette burns in them. No towels. Had to go to reception and ask for a toilet roll, to be given one that was literally shredded!!
On a plus, the bed was comfy and the bed linen was clean. I wasn’t expecting The Ritz but for £40 a night, i did expect towels and toilet roll!!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The first room we were in had dead flies on the floor & window sills, cobwebs in the corners & was very outdated. In the early hour of the morning there were scuffling noises coming from the ceiling & the ceiling tiles were being physically lifted by what we can only imagine was by rats or some other rodent. The number for emergencies in the room wasn’t in service however another number was at the reception. We requested a room move which we received without question. No facilities for parking despite Expedia stating limited parking available.
Not a very pleasant experience unfortunately.
Very run down hotel and needs a heck of alot of TLC...We had dead spiders in our shower that obviously hadn't been cleaned..The blinds in the room were broken and didn't close..The tv was hanging off the wall and didnt work..Only 1 cup in the room for a drink..Tiny tiny bathroom ...No fans in the room even tho the heat was excessive..Very noisy throughout the night...on the plus side there is a lovely cafe called Sallys 2 minutes up the street..
