"Located close to popular pub, nice view of the harbour"

6.0

Very central location. New feel to the decoration and items in the room like iron, ironing board and fan. Heating worked well and plenty of hot water. Located right opposite what sounded a popular bar/pub. Chap on reception was helpful and accommodating. WiFi works just fine with a straight forward system to check in, find room a check out.

No complaints or problems; budget location for budget price. Does what it promises in the description.

"Great location, no frills"

6.0

Good location and helpful staff

Too hot and a very small, basic room. The bed was uncomfortable and the mattress was very dirty. Not the hotels fault at all but the worldโ€™s noisiest seagulls from about 4am.

"Flashy only at a first glance"

4.0

It all seemed very new, but only at first glance

The room was great - at first glance only. The bedding was dirty (especially the sheet under the pillow closer to the window and also the duvet cover had a hole. Also one of the towels was disgusting (it actually had a poo mark from a previous user). The bed was also very squeaky, when sitting down or turning over at night. About the TV: first it would take forever for an update and then it wasn't possible to watch anything. When logged in to my subscriptions, all I would get was error codes or endless loading. Ended up streaming a film on the computer. A simple, old TV would have done a better job. Also the shampoo supposedly available did not work and the toilet brush holder had rusted shut and the toilet brush was inaccessible.

"Too small"

3.0

The heating was on The shower was hot The bathroom was a reasonable size Everything was clean

The room was a single with a double bed in it so extremely cramped. The fittings were made of marine ply and more suited to a garden shed than a hotel room. The bathroom towel rail was noisy and needed bleeding.
