Good location

bad dip in the road as you come out of the car park of the hotel. (banged the underneath of our car)
Anonymous (Mature couple) 30 July 2008
it would be an excellent hotel if the bed has been up to a normal standard, but because sleep is very important part of the holiday, I would not go back to that hotel again
(107100921)

the hotel was good, a very good selection of foods for breakfast and very good staff

The bed was not good... the mattress was very lumpy and worn in places which you fell into a dip when trying to sleep... also a very small bed for a double this alone is the only reason I would not go to that hotel again

Brilliant Location, Friendly Staff, Car Park and Cooked Breakfast was ok.

Small room, took the details and security digits of my card which i wasnt very comftable doing and found it really unnecessary as i made a reservation on the internet, 2% surcharge on using cards.

The location was ideal for our weekend break and the accomodation was adequate for the one night stay.

Uncomfortable beds and cheap products used for the cooked breakfast and coffee.

Good Location, Good Service

We were made to feel welcome from the outset with a warm genuine smile, and as other reviews stated nothing was too much trouble from the staff. To the extent that when staff realsied we were there to celebrate my girl friends birthday he decorated our rooom with greetings and a compliment bottle of red. We were made to feel we were not in a chain hotel, due to the little extras we received throughout our stay, and it was obvious ran by a lovely family. We can not wait to go again. If you want a hotel with mod cons swimming pool, gym, etc etc, dont stay here. However we loved it, for the personal service and all of the above. I would recommend to my friends and family, and definately stay again.
(97205883)

Clean, Tidy, with a lot of history to the place, easily accessible to the beach.

There is always something to complain about, however small or large, or something missing, but on this instance after such a postive welcomed stay, these are not apparent or not worth noting.
John from london, GB (Solo business traveller) 17 October 2007
the hotel offered just what I needed , super meals and confortable bed , the bar was cosy although i didn't care for the live music but saying that i did enjoy the wireless internet environment that gave me a chance to catch up on my work . for a 2 star hotel this one is well on top of the list , should be superior or at least 3 stars !

The hotel and bedroom was spoless , with good facilities and the little touches in the bedroom made it all more welcome .the dinner was superb and so was the breakfast choice with excellent service and friendly staff .
Lea from Morden, GB (Family with young children) 26 July 2007
The hotel is ideally positioned close to the town and station and close to the beach. It was very easy to find. The staff were all very friendly. The hotel itself was a bit basic but to be honest we didn't really spend much time in. Breakfast was superb, lots to choose from.
(99109658)

The location was lovely, really close to everything. The breakfast was really nice - lots to choose from. The staff were very friendly and helpful

Our family room consisted of three single beds, and we would have preferred a double and a single.

The staff were very helpful and allowed us to check in 2 hours earlier than stated on the documentation.

We did not feel that the breakfast served was of a very high standard so this could be greatly improved. My friend found a hair in her food!

General Review
The friendly Hotel Management and the Staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble and every consideration was shown, not to mention the very excellent food that was provided at every meal. Cleanliness of the Hotel was excellent. As my stay was at a festive time, everyone at the Hotel had put themselves out to make it an enjoyable and memorable experience, which it certainly was. I would recommend it to anyone.

every effort was made in the form of cleanliness and welcome touches.

noisy pipework at times, but understandable as it is an older building which has to cater for expensive blockages of the system.

The room was simple, yet clean. The professional staff had good attention to detail, especially at breakfast. Although we can say that the hotel was the highlight of our trip, it defenetly contributed to an enjoyable weekend.

Some of the information about the community (in the room) was inacurate.

The room was quite small and the decor was a bit old. Seemed overpriced for what you got.

The Hotel wasn't very modern, but the clean Hotel and the friendly staff made up for the not so modern Hotel - We loved the English Breakfast which Lovely. Money well spend!

Guess the only thing if I am really honest, was that on this weekend, we were 35-41 and the average age of the guests was 65+

hard to say as we were there in the winter when the hotel was very quiet, however we were very pleased with the standard of accommodation and would return

You will notice that I have only ticked fair for overall value for money. The reason for this has got nothing to do with the hotel performance. I do not know whether the other people in the hotel noticed it but there was a heavy presence of electromgnetic fields throughout my stay. Th source was most probably from outside but it still made sleep uncomfortable. My own observation shows that it had nothing to do with the hotel itself. I did notice this even outside the hotel. I do not know how people having a simple merry xmas break in a hotel offends the state, to the extent that the state has to intrude on their privacy!
(3304066577)

The location of the hotel, close to the twon centre was helpful. The hotel provided a quiet and peaceful atmosphere on top of the excellent performance from the staff.

Overall this hotel was perfect for people who literally needed a clean room for a few nights and spent most of their time out and about. It is in an ideal location being just 2 minutes from the seafront, town and old village. I do, however, believe that the hotel catered more for older people and there was no entertainment in the evening...although we did go out of season!! I would stay there again because of the idyllc location for people who are on a weekend break.

The hotel was in an ideal location being just 2 minutes from the seafront, town and old village.

The hotel could have more entertainment in the evenings to entice people to stay. They could also improve on the shower facilities as it was very small.
Anonymous (Group of adult friends) 21 September 2005
In general I cannot trust internet booking any more! Because the internet did not tell us this hotel is made up for the elderly! Can you image how dreatful when you find the place is full of people over 70, but you are just under 30! If we knew we would have chosen this one!!!

comfortable, clean and warm.

The price was high, but the condition was very poor. It was totally a disaster.
Anonymous (Young couple) 19 September 2005
Nice hotel, friendly staff. Only drawback for a young couple such as ourselves was that it catered for people of a greater age. Kareoke, singalongs and bingo were not our cup of tea- but this didn't really disturb.

Good value for what it was, simple but nonetheless good.
Peter from Crewe, United Kingdom;GB (Group of adult friends) 07 September 2005
Our party had three rooms, all of which I would describe as lived in. Although not in a poor state of repair, they were all slightly shabby, though they were clean. Attention to detail is the key to a successful hotel, and the small things such as the heating control on the shower did not work, fortunately it was stuck on hot and not cold!! We returned from our evening out at about five to midnight to find the bar locked up and no one about to serve us a drink. All in all, 5/10 more £40 per room rather than £65

It's close to the beach so a great base. The staff are ever so helpful....more breakfast than you could wish for!
On a Bank Holiday weekend they put themselves out to ensure they found us a room for the second night!

Located close to beach and town. No sea views. Nice garden area, bar and lounge with food available evenings if you don't want to visit any local restaurants. Worth checking other hotels in the same price range.

Good location and excellent car park. Straightforward B&B with no complications. Friendly but unobtrusive.

Decor, rather dated interior furnishings, carpet, curtains etc. Has huge potential.
Anonymous (Mature couple) 10 August 2005
Ideally located for our evening, and carnival on too so balcony superb to watch procession. If the furnishings were updated, it would be perfect. Everything seemed clean though. Breakfast was adequate with very attentive staff. Would have liked choice of continental buffet as well though, just British or cereals and toast.

Location, balcony, friendliness of staff, plants and flowers outside make hotel attractive.

Rooms looking tired. Carpet very old. Shower small and could not get enough hot water
