Don’t book here unless you are happy with broken furniture, stained carpets with burn marks, curtains hanging off a single hook and not covering windows. A bathroom window in the shower/bath facing the street without frosting or efficient covering. Old bed, full of lumps and ridges, only fit for the rubbish tip, stale cigarette smoke wafting through passages and random pieces of furniture and hoover in the passages. Staff catnapping in “waiting area”

The hotel was a shambles I was moved to 3 different rooms due to broken TV with no remote, the next room had no curtains in the bathroom looking out onto the street. The last room I saw had a shower that didn't work. I was then moved to another hotel in the same company, This was better but barely, dirty hallways stained carpets and the Foyer smelt like sewage.

No parking as advertised. Staff were very casual - often sat on their phones on the sofa round the corner from the front desk. There was nowhere to hang the shower hose. It was just loose over the bath. They did fix it once I told them, but I would've expected it to have been addressed before my arrival. The windows were a bit broken and there was pigeon mess all over the sills. The view was very derelict. Overall it was ok for a place to lay my head on a work trip, but there's plenty of room for improvement. If the staff occupied their time by checking rooms/corridors for maintenance issues or cleaning rather than sitting on the somewhat dilapidated sofas in the lobby, they would do much better.

Centrally located, with 24hr front desk and offered at a good value off-season price, however the description of our room as 'deluxe' wasn't at all right.

Pro’s. The room was very large The beds were clean and comfortable enough for a couple of nights. The towels were clean The bathroom was clean The staff were really friendly and helpful The parking was a bit expensive but right behind the hotel so useful. The hotel was close to the seafront The Wi-Fi was fine Con’s The carpet was filthy. Stained and obviously very old. Some of the plug sockets didn’t work The furniture was very old and a bit tatty There was a hole in the bathroom floor The bath had no plug. The window in the bathroom looked old and tatty. Overall, for a couple of nights for £100 the hotel was fine. The staff were really helpful and friendly. If the carpet was replaced and the owners did a trip to ikea for some new furniture and curtains, it would be a good place to stay.

Weekend in Hove

Great location, very near sea front, pubs, cafes, restaurants and shops. On-site car parking is a real plus! Room was clean and tidy, but a little bit dilapidated - curtains worn (difficult to open/close) and no plug in bathroom hand basin. Overall, good value room for an overnight stay, but clearly scope to improve in a few areas.

The room was acceptable but could do with a new curtain rail. We had to ask for assistance as we were frightened to open and close the curtains. Also the ceiling in the bathroom was badly stained. So there's room for improvement. The beds were comfortable. Okay for a short visit.

The whole place smelled like weed. The room and bathroom were old and didn't feel clean. There was no room cleaning during our stay. The only saving gracs was that the bed was clean and very comfortable.
