Poor servive? No – no service.

Check-in: Need a code which was supposedly given in their confirmation email. Neither I normy friend, on a separate booking, received a code. So I arrive at the door with no code and, good news - there is a contact number in the email. Bad news, it goes straight to voicemail. Fortuntaely, after a few minutes a resident who has a better contact number shows up and I get in. No toilet paper in the room, no chair or similar to put clothes. Supposed to be breakfast included - no breakfast.

on the website it was described as a guest house with reception and breakfast available it does no have a reception or any catering facilities now and is just rooms for hire a al AirbandB. And I was not expected, I had to wait on the door step for someone to come from another address to let me in and had to wait again while they got my room ready. It was OK but not what I thought I had booked for! And the batteries ran out on the TV remote and I had to replace them to make the TV work and the water didn't run away properly in the shower tray, taking too long to go away! Something must have gone wrong with your or their booking system and needs to be sorted out.

The room was and clean and the mattress was good, could do with a bit of a repaint on the skirting and the blue textured wall would look better painted white. The shower/toilet door did have a big gap down the side so not very private for going to the loo if you are staying with someone else. Luckily there was another toilet down the hall. Woken up the the seagulls at the early hours. Really good location though, a minutes walk from the pier.

For the price was very good just a few negatives 1) I asked if i could leave my luggage before booking in time and was told yes and given code to enter.....but no one came so for security reasons i could not really leave it. 2) No word done on room between my 3 nights stay 3) long life milk was curdled ? down to very hot weather?)

Left on doorstep for 1/2 hour before they answered the door in the rain. The girl who answered the door wanted me to tip out my case in the hall to find pen and paper to take the door code down No breakfast as advertised, no Manager around to speak to. Eventually a guy who said he was a Manger who actually wasn't put manager on the phone who said no breakfast. Cant shut toilet door as door was too close to toilet. Old sash windows that rattled, toilet when flushed sounded like the Eiffel tower collapsing. The 3 milks they give had all gone off. Rubbish up the side of the building, no flower boxes outside as shown.This was a dump, would not put an enemy in it.

A bed and breakfast with no breakfast room on site, £22 on top to get it at a local cafe and no daily resupply of room consumables. I thought 2 coffees were for my first day, it was for a 2 day stay.

This is the worst hotel I have stayed at.

This is the first time that the photos on Hotels.com don't reflect in anyway the actual hotel. There are no flowers at all on the hotel, as it looks in the photo. We actually thought that it was closed. You make your way in and you are wondering where you are going. We opened the door and where wondering what we had done. The door on the ensuit bathroom didn't fit the frame so there was a 10cm gap at one end. The area around didn't feel safe at night. You can hear the people next door and the pluming made a lot of noise so if someone needed to get up early and shower then everyone was up. The only positive was that the water was hot. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. We cannot believe that this has a genuine 8.4 rating on Hotels.com.

On arrival I was given a room but there was no heating so it was very cold. The Manger happily moved me to another room with a heater in which was better. The room itself was clean and in good condition with plenty of tea/coffee. The mattress though was very hard, not comfortable at all and quite crunchy. The noise from outside was easily heard (which can't be helped I imagine) but still was a loud room to have. The staff were helpful and all in all for the price I paid I can't really complain. I don't think I would return, purely as the bed made sleep quote hard.

Deserve refund for this shoddy stay.

No staff on premises, managed remotely. Had to sit on door step for 55 mins upon arrival before i could reach someone by phone. People living next door said that this has happened a few times. Breakfast not on sight. Was going to be cafe in next street, then got changed overnight (note under room door) to another cafe a 5 mins walk away (in the rain)
