Cleaner is definitely NOT doing their job! Yes the hotel is dated but theres absolutely no excuse for bad cleaning it'll ruin their business. Cleaner was outside our window smoking all morning so we couldn't even open the window in our room. Reception staff very friendly and helpful couldnt fault them at all.

4/10 Fair

The location is wonderful right on the seafront, with a car park. The property itself could do with modernising throughout. The bar area vibe doesn’t match the style of the building. My room wasn’t particularly clean the headboard had dust and the tv was covered in dust and the remote was sticky and dirty. The shower didn’t have hot water. We didn’t have a comfortable sleep as the bed was hard and lumpy. If the rooms had a refresh it would be a great place to stay.

Staff very friendly. lounge, reception and bar very clean and refurbished. Unfortunately the room let it down with lots of damage to the walls and the bathroom including past damp leaks and previous guests hair everywhere. Free WiFi in room with smart tv and sea view within very close walking distance to the town was a bonus though, was fine for what we needed the room for.

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.

Ideal overnight close to the Euro Tunnel

For the price it’s hard to be too critical but the decor and building were tired, there was a stale smell of green and our mattress was past its best, if you need an overnight that’s affordable with a bar and pool table and parking then it’s hard to beat
