Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Staff friendly and helpful. Room had lovely sea views. Bed was comfy. Hotel was clean. Cooked breakfast was fresh and tasty. Would have liked an option of porridge or bananas. Restaurant was bright and clean. Parking was good as nowhere on yhe road available and my husband has mobility issues. A shower rather than one over the bath would have been easier. Instructions for operating the shower would have been useful as the water was very hot and we wasted a lot getting it to the correct temperature.

The traditional English breakfast was well worth the wait for being cooked to order, probably the best cooked breakfast I've had in years! And a nice selection of buffet items as well. In October the parking wasn't an issue, but I can imagine its more problematic at busy times of year. The building is nearly 200 years old so I can forgive the creaky floorboards, but the bed we had was also very creaky which was a little annoying. Overall it was excellent value for money and I would stay again.

Parking non- existent requiring us to park a 15 minute walk away. We managed . Staff are brilliant. Very helpful and charming . We had an excellent seaview from our room number 211 which was a highlight and great to wake up to . Overall the stay was fine for just overnight but hotel is looking very tired and in need of some loving care. Breakfast was very good and served with a smile .

GINA

Liked: Room comfort
Overall the hotel was OK, but a bit dated. Our room was large but cold, beds were comfy. We had a twin room and this was situated at the rear over looking the car park. Furniture was dated but sufficient. The room had the usual complimentary tea and coffee. The worst thing was the bathroom. Cracked ceiling, a rather large dead spider on the floor, radiator caked in dust, the bath panel was cracked and warped with water, the door hinges were rusty. It just needed a complete makeover and clean. We were lucky to park on the street, although there is parking to the rear of the hotel, it was already reserved. Sadly there was no meals being served, but there's plenty of places to eat nearby. I wouldn't advise going out in the car as you may not be able to park when you get back. Hotel is at the top of a hill, and in good position and walking distance for all the local amenities.
