I feel the hotel should make mention of the fact that all their rooms are accessed via a pretty steep flight of stairs which presents a challenge to anyone with walking difficulties. Had we known in advance then we would not of booked. If you do book, make sure you book the much larger front-facing rooms. At the rear the rooms are much smaller. On a positive note, the staff are very helpful and the food is plentiful.

Lovely room. Great bed. Big bathroom. Breakfast was delicious. Shame no housekeeping, especially in that heat and bins were full. Music from downstairs was a put off ... We expected it in the evenings (the rooms are above a pub) but not so early in the morning (it was on for breakfast so an early alarm call).

100% Recommend if visiting the Brighton area.

What a lovely place to stay! Located in a lovely area with views of the sea this place is great to stay for a little weekend in Brighton. Check in was really easy and the room was perfect! Breakfast included was a huge bonus. Staff are really helpful and friendly especially the young lady on reception, Can't remember her name but she was a star a real highlight to the place. Will definitely be staying here again!

Overall a positive experience, room, food, location all good. Our only slight concern was not being aware prior to arrival that there were no members of staff on the premises overnight. We only became aware when being told extra details around fire procedures & being asked to sign to say we understood the procedure. When rechecking the booking we could not find anything that actually stated guests would not have staff on site overnight only again information around fire procedures, feel this is misleading & should be made clear before booking.

Staff are great - friendly and helpful. Rooms I booked were ok based on price and amenities. Location of rooms I booked dreadful. Accessed directly from outside and 1 in particular with a window next to the cross roads and traffic lights on a very busy road. Noise unacceptable through both the door and the window - felt a bit like Harry Potter fitted in under the stairs. The roller blind / blackout blind on the door is a waste of time as the door closure mechanism at the top of the door meant the blind starts part way down the door and light streams through as soon as day breaks and the bed is sited directly in front so it hits you right in the face. Very disappointing overall. Breakfast was good.
