The Paradise Guest House

Spoke to a really nice guy the morning of our stay who confirmed the booking and was able to tell me about nearby parking (There is some roadside parking outside the property if your lucky, and details of how to obtain a permit are given once you've checked in OR there is parking meter payment just up the road or a 24hr car park literally around the corner) He also said that whilst check in was from 3pm onwards, if our room was ready any earlier, he would contact me. Access to the property and room via door codes was ideal as i could give details to Hubby and son's rather than just 1 key! The location was perfect, 30 second walk to the end of the road and you're on marine parade. Add to that, there was a really nice pub with outside seating too! 2 more minutes from there and you are at the beach! Lovely room, really clean, extra extension leads for appliances, chargers etc, fan already in the room, loads of bath sized towels, fridge, microwave, smart TV, hair dryer, plenty of towels and FREE GOOD WIFI!!!

No reply to my messages earlier in the week and they only answer the phone between 9am and 5pm so it made it difficult to get hold of anyone so it made me me panic! Also, there was a kitchenette with sink but no washing up liquid so we bought some, only to discover that house keeping washed up while we were out - that would have been handy to know.

The fridge was nice/clean

*The bedding wasn't changed properly from the last customer *The pillows did Not have pillow protectors * The mattress did Not have a protector on it * No hand towel dried hands on a bathmat * The carpet was frayed under the bed *The room window overlooks an alley way * The whole house smelt of weed (constant) * The room I was in was not on the internet * The wardrobe door was broken * No chair to sit on at the vanity mirror * No sign to say there was a step that goes to the bathroom) which could be dangerous * The bed creek every time you moved in bed

Very disappointed with room. Very difficult to prepare any meals or even light snacks. No preparation area, only one knife and fork, had to wedge something under Fridge in order to open and close the door. Bed was tiny, not a double. Towels were awful. Room was unbearably hot and so much noise at night it was impossible to sleep.

Great location. Sent the door codes just before 3pm checkin time as requested. Nice spacious room with fridge and microwave included. Thankfully there was a fan in the room as room could get warm.

Unable to open windows fully as pigeons kept landing on windowsill. Not the owners fault but was annoyingly.

Location, ease of check in , well equipped and clean accommodation, helpful staff.

The only tiny complaint is the fan in the room was broken.. but this didn’t spoil our trip, as we were cool enough with opening the window.

well set up with the guest in mind very helpful to me with entry and parking

the curtains didn’t open window only a crack

Good price, clean and close to all amenities.

Nothing to stop me booking again. One must realise that these are very old buildings and so do not expect perfection .

Great room with kettle toaster and microwave ..shower and wc. Our room was a very good size with a wall mounted tv. We had a tower fan which was needed as a muggy weekend. Location was fab right in the seafront by the pier .. very quite hotel and felt very secure .
