Guest Reviews
- Shaun (6/5): Not the best stay if honest location next to guest house where people constantly arguing - Breakfast wasn't included in price Pressure on shower very low uneven floor in shared bathroom and toilet moved when u sat on it wasn't plumbed into floor correctly
- Colin mcmain (8/5): -
- Alfie (9/5): -
- Dave (9/5): -
- RODNEY (7/5): - Comfy bed small corner shower, not keen on sink in the bedroom. Decor little tired
- katie (7/5): - Really good location as needed to be close to central pier.
Was a quiet hotel what was needed for the night.
Gave me daugher some sweets in the room what was a lovey touch.
Was able to check in early.
Was told in the morning I had an ungraded what was lovely as was just me and my daugher. When I went to place my close away on under the bedside table, it was really dusty. There was a hair in bed. The window was dirty on the inside. Hair near the tiles near the sink.
- Chris (1/5): - Very dirty.
Bathroom shower full of mold
Urine or sweat on mattress topper.
Window didn’t shut.
And poo on the toilet brush (really?)
Very disappointed
- James (10/5): Great Owners - Location was good, hosts Jacki and Russell were great and accomodating , the bar was perfect , we had no agenda in the evenings and we stayed at the bar as a filler both nights . 2 lovely frenchies . We left our laptop there by mistake and they kept it safe for us . 10/10 weekend , went up for BGT , saw the fireworks , and lights .will definately re visit to see them . /
- David (8/5): -
- Karen (4/5): Not a great stay - Hate to diss anywhere where hosts have given over their home but our stay was awful.
The room looked nothing like the pictures with a double bed, (awful mattress) up against the wall in a room that should have been a single. The shared bathroom wasnt far to go, which was a plus but there was no sink so you had to come out of the loo to wash your hands in your room meaning the transfer of germs would have been on all the handles.
The TV was no bigger than a laptop. There were USB points for charging, which was a nice touch.
Weirdly Haribo instead of biscuits and not sure what was in the kettle but my morning coffee went straight down the sink.
We got into bed about 10:30 but there was a bar on the ground floor and the music, impromptu kareoke and loud noise went on well after acceptable hours for a hotel.
We just got to sleep and the fire alarm went off. It was a false alarm which went off again about 15 mins later.
The plumbing bangs when certain rooms use their water, which went off intermittently through the night.
As we were leaving the host wished a couple of ladies well and hoped they would return, one of them turned to us and said "never coming back here" so it wasnt just us who had a bad experienced.
- jodi (10/5): . My new favourite place to stay!! - This place is within a couple minutes walk to the seafront and shops/amusements.
The owners were lovely and friendly. Excellent bar.
We stayed in the ensuite rooms, they were lovely. Amazing comfortable bed with lovely bedding (i slept like a baby) nice big tv. It was like home from home.
Definitely going to be coming back here.
Thank you for an amazing stay!!😊😊 The rain didn't stop....that is all 😂😂😂
- Launchbury (10/5): Brilliant weekend stay. - The hosts were very lovely and plus they had a dog who was very crazy but very cute. The bed was very comfortable and had the best sleep of my life. We had a shared bathroom but that wasn't the fault of the hosts as we didnt realise we picked a shared bathroom so next time we would have to enquire about an ensuite.
- Hartley (8/5): Wonderful stay will definitely be back - Beautiful well kept home, friendly owners that make us feel super comfortable
- Robert (10/5): - Everything that it was expected to be
