Grant, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Dirty hotel, beds uncomfortable. Pints - lines haven't been cleaned, tasted horrible. Noisy hotel, here all the rooms around us. Bathroom in poor condition. Worst hotel I've ever stayed in. Not sure why Expedia promote this hotel or have it as a listing.
Peter, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

This was the worst hotel room I have ever seen. The beds were small and uncomfortable. The bedding was thin. The floor was not level. There was no furniture to store clothes. The room was dirty, tired, and uninviting. We stayed for 5 minutes and decided to leave and find alternative accommodation. Awful!!
Ian, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Everything outdated. But sheets were clean.
Ziga, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The property was so dirty and disappointing that we didn’t stay. We checked out within an hour. We were not prepared to stay in a place that had mould growing on the walls
Rosie, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location. The decor was a little dated, and smoke smells on the stairwell, but very convenient 1 night stop. The room had everythjng we needed.
DAVID, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Good convienent location, helpful staff, the lift being out of order was annoying as I had heavy luggage.
Ian, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Sea view, big bathroom,....but the room was small ..couldn't connect to the Internet
Michael, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

This hotel retains some of its old charm and doesn't have the same flat, grey and white modernised look like so many hotels these days.
Fiona, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Lift did not work. Rooms not sound proofed as advertised. Mouldy net curtains, cob webs in room, under the bed hadn’t been hoovered so previous guests rubbish was there. Hall way smelt. Dirty windows. No hand towel. Shower poor
