Cheap and not so cheerful! Despite some minor redecorating still very worn out and basic. When i went to order food I was told the chef had left so no kitchen or bar available at all. Very unacceptable as two small children were included in the booking and no email received to forewarn us so no alternatives could be arranged.

Very satisfactory stay

I had a large good room with an ensuite. The hotel is located very close to the beach and to town. I was on a work trip and it was the off season so the hotel was quiet. For the price I paid I feel the hotel provided a great stay. Really good WiFi.

Monsell hotel

We came with an open mind. Hotel looks ok and the lady who greeted us was nice. The room was not as the picture on the internet. It had a bed, with a mattress with not much spring left. The en-suite had a vanity sink which my husband had trouble washing in. The carpet needed cleaning, kettle full of limescale and the room generally, needed decorating. I was a bit disappointed, but it was just somewhere to sleep, which was just as well. We stayed out till we needed to go back. Didn’t see any one after we arrived
