• Emma (7/5): The plumbing for the room above runs through the family room we stayed in and after being woken up by loud drunk guests - Location is great, not on the strip but close enough to walk to and close to the train station too,owners were lovely Some of the room needs updating, tv, kettle, lamp didn’t work. A little table would have been so helpful for meal times. Plumbing for room above needs addressing as very loud in the room

• Pamela (6/5): Basic - Close enough for town and seafront Bed was very soft and uncomfortable
• Charlotte kelk (3/5): - Very close to the beach, town and attractions. A 5 minute walk to all of the above. The hosts were a lovely couple. Sadly, the room was very dirty, I had to clean all surfaces and then drawers and line them with paper towels before I could put our clothes in. The on suite shower room was grubby, leaking taps. Beds uncomfortable could feel the springs. Miss matched furniture. Kettle unusable I had to buy my own to make hot drinks.

• Jason (5/5): Location is good if you are willing to put other things aside. - Good location a short walk to the clocktower. A double bed and single bed in the room. The shower and toilet room is something that could do with improving, you can tell it's a cheaply done job, not a very clean room.
• Pamela (2/5): - Nothing Flat pillows on bed not possible to get comfortable cleaness need a complete redecorating our room was dated smallest towels ever no glass in bathroom for toothbrush and to rinse mouth sink cracked mold round inside and outside of shower cubicle Our bed had black tape all around holding base together Definitely not worth £75 a night i paid was robbed

• Nic (3/5): Very average. - Very dated,needs a refurbishment,bed and pillows uncomfortable,shower a joke,so small.
• Jayne (10/5): -
• Yvonne (6/5): Hotel friendy and accommodating. Ok for one night - We were in a very small room, ok for one night I guess. There was a mix of different furniture but clean and usable. a sliding door lead to a very small toilet and shower area, which we thought could do with decorating. It was very clean although the flooring could do with replacing and also the shower tray needed replacing.we had no shower gel, so take your own. The windows outside needed a good clean. Everything was dust free and the linen fresh. Paid extra for breakfast which was made ready at a set time. It was ok . Self service for drinks .

• Pauline (7/5): Ideal for our overnight stay. - Excellent breakfast which was good value. Location central for walking. Double bed was small.
• Maria grazia (7/5): -
• Stephen (9/5): Lovely relaxing retreat after busy days on the beach - Very friendly and welcoming staff, always willing to go the extra mile for you. Breakfast was great, tasty and cooked very well. Location for the beach was fantastic as well as a short walk to the supermarkets. Free Parking and lovely little mini shop at reception. Not the hotel's or staff's fault, I had chosen the wrong room type as I need twin beds not a double, the hotel were able to change the room as it was booked through booking.com, but booking.com advised to speak to the hotel staff, I was stuck in the middle with no resolution, so just had to suffer my daughters snoring and squirming for dominance of the bedding.
• Holly (10/5): Lovely place in a great location - Order breakfast at the hotel the night before if you want it, was a very quiet hotel, and quiet place which was lovely if you dont want something lively and loud all night.
• Sandra (7/5): Very good ve4y clean bathroom lovely would stay again - Mattress not very comfy and need new pillows
• nick (10/5): A hidden gem - Beautiful little hotel very close to all amenities and the seafront but tucked away enough to me quiet That I couldn't stay longer

• Nicholas (5/5): -
• Iren (10/5): Extremely enjoyable and very relaxing. - The location was fantastic. The hosts were brilliant. They even took me to the local medical centre when my daughter fell ill. The breakfast was amazing too. The double bed in our room was a little uncomfortable for me.

• Brett (6/5): - Room was a bit cramped the bed was not very comfortable.I couldn't sleep i went a day earlier because I couldn't sleep the bathroom was too small for me to move around bcause I am a big man i don't know about the other rooms, but mine was too small for what I paid The location was good only
• Chris (8/5): - Very roomy, towels and complimentary tea and coffee provided as you would expect for any proud establishment. Smoke from cigarettes of people outside on a bench
• Teresa (8/5): - The property was clean,well kept,spacious & I will happily stay there again.
• Lauren (8/5): Clean comfortable beds - Beds were clean and very comfortable. The lady on reception was very polite and helpful. Easy to get parked. The cost is very much on par with what you get. We just needed somewhere to lay our heads that’s not too far from the town centre (8 minute walk). Would stay here again. Thanks very much :)
• Churchill (7/5): -
• ian (4/5): One star hotel - Poor customer service we wanted to order breakfast there was a bell to ring for attention. We rang it twice waited between 15-20 minutes no one came. We stay in skegness quite a lot one of the worst hotels that we've stayed in
• Vickki (10/5): - Great location and value for money
• Mary (7/5): - Location was brilliant. The hotel was nice and clean although the bins could have done with being emptied at least once during our stay. Firstly it was advertised with a bar which is why I picked it but there is no bar so a bit disappointing. Also during our stay the fire alarm went off so we evacuated until the alarm stopped but it would have been nice if the owners had come out and told us it was a false alarm. Bad practice if you ask me.
• Clive (7/5): -
• Jodie (5/5): Was clean location was good - Location was good The bed was so uncomfortable room looked nothing like the pictures
• jane (8/5): Adequate for what we needed - Good location
• Helga (4/5): Good location, but don't expect luxury - Wonderful location,close to beach, restaurants and grocery stores. Friendly staff Stuffy rooms, not really clean. One of our rooms had cups for tea, the second one didn't. . Bottom bedsheets on one of the beds had stains
• Michelle (10/5): -
• Mini Podroze (8/5): - The room is nice and clean, staff is so nice and friendly. Close to the city centre and the beach Shower is a bit old, the water is rather hot or cold, nothing in between
• Megan (4/5): - Its close to the seafront and clean enough The room was too small, the shower was dangerous, I caught my foot on the metal lip causing my skin to rip on my toe
• phillip (3/5): - Room need cleaning Bedding old and grubby Tea and coffee not replaced daily Bathroom small shower, mirror in wrong place and needs cleaning
• Oladayo (10/5): -
• Caroline (5/5): -
• Jen Mander (8/5): Great Little Family Run B&B! - We booked The Monsell as we were attending Skeggy's Ska / Reggae Festival and it's location was perfect for all the venues we wanted to attend. Staying with Chrissy and Brett was an absolute pleasure. They are very kind and attentive. Even calling us before our stay to ask if we needed the room on the lower floor as access to the other floors were by stairs only. Breakfast was pre ordered the day before and freshly cooked the following morning. Substantial portions! Nicely cooked. (My hubby was disappointed because there was no black pudding - but that's nothing new! 😊) Our room (#1) was clean and large. Plenty of tea / coffee / milk. The bed was a dream! Very comfy. In need of some TLC but absolutely fine for the 3 nights we stayed. I have given a rating of 4 simply because The Monsell is in need a little bit of an uplift ... but what Chrissy and Brett provide is worth every penny. We will definitely stay again.
