Fab stay
Another wonderful stay. Friendly staff, clean room. Mattress was a little too firm for our liking, but was ok for a couple of nights.

Our stay was very disappointing. First of all, the hotel was nowhere near the seafront as advertised. You would have to walk about 10-15 minutes to get there. They also advertised King-size bed which turned out to be a Standard Double on the 4th floor with no lifts. My wife and I had to carry our luggages l the way taking a few minutes rest on the 3rd floor. When questioned about the size of the bed the Manager only trued to justify it saying the bed in our room was larger compared to others innother rooms. I don't think we woild ever use this hotel again.

Very friendly staff on arrival and in all interactions. Public spaces looked nice. Room was clean and simple. Only gripe was the need to de-timescale the taps and shower head. The bathroom was spacious and modern and the stuttering and erratic spray caused by limescale blockages was out of place and could’ve made for a much more pleasant experience.
Overall was good value for a single room, was visiting my daughter at uni and would happily stay there again when doing so.

I was given a room away from the view I saw on the the advert which was not nice. The facility was not the best but was ok for a short stay.

We were not made aware that the hotel had no dining facilities and were surprised that we had to go out for breakfast.

Modernised Budget but extremely clean!
Nice clean hotel - modern budget would be best description. Single bed was uncomfortable unfortunately - room was big enough for a small double, but room was nice and clean, staff were lovely. Good WiFi too ! Parking is a free for all on public street outside.

Quiet and comfortable. Doesn't take card payments.
Opted to pay the hotel on arrival, but they weren't able to take care payment, so I had to go and find a cash machine like it was the 90s. Paying cash in this kind of establishment just feels like a tax dodge.
Otherwise it was quiet and comfortable.
