Lovely seafront hotel, well maintained.

Lovely hotel and some characterful communal areas and relaxing lounges. Clean and spacious rooms. Great location. Only issue was a loud fan noise coming from the kitchen - were told it would be switched off by 9pm but it wasn't - but after a follow up call it was switched off at 9:30pm.

The executive sea view room is spacious with huge windows and a great view of the seafront. Fantastic to just cross the road to go for a swim. Well located for all the town's facilities and walking distance from the train station. Good parking deal at 2.35 per day. Downside was the bathroom is very small, and gets stiflingly hot, and has no space to put your toiletries

It was exactly as I expected for a British seaside hotel. The rooms are very dated and you don’t really want to walk on the carpet but the staff were friendly and attentive and it’s in a great location. Had lunch in the restaurant which was extremely average yet very overpriced. You’re much better going to eat somewhere on Terminus Road about ten minutes walk away.
