Dont be thrown off by the dodgy exterior! The inside is lovely! Staff are great. Food is yummy. Just across the street from the beach, adventure park, and there is a movie theater next door. Would stay here again for sure!
Easy to check in, staff very friendly and helpful. Beds comfortable and allowed us to take the dog. Breakfeast was not the best weve had but ok, again staff were friendly and helpful.
Traveling as a family of four with older children, no lock on bathroom doors, room with sea view was a good size but other room was a bit small for our needs. Dog was allowed which was brilliant. Room was great for a short term stay.
The hotel looks pretty tired from outside but rooms and reception area had been updated to an excellent standard. Breakfast was great with plenty of choices.
Only slightly negative comment is that the breakfast was served in a large ball room which lacked atmosphere. A few flower arrangements separating the tables from the large dance floor would have made the difference.
Wouldn’t go back, way over priced for what it is. Evening meal weren’t the best. Paid for breakfast but when went to eat it my name had already been crossed off, no breakfast. Found staff less than helpful
The property was so disgusting that we chose not to stay there and refused the room. The property was extremely outdated and misrepresented in your ad. It looked and appeared to be a slum in a major American city decrepit and in disrepair. The lobby was like lipstick on a pig. I will be disputing the charge.
