Spent 4 nights here for the Southern 100 road racing event. The hotel is situated just off the main promenade in an ideal location. The room was well equipped with everything required for a pleasant stay. Comfortable bed with plenty pillows, tv, hairdryer, kettle with tea and coffee. Staff were helpful and friendly and the room cleaned to a high standard. Would definitely stay here again.

ADAM

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
What was unique about the property was that they did not have our reservations from Expedia. So we got there at 10 o’clock at night, they had no reservation for us, no space for us to stay because they were full, so there was a massive miscommunication between Expedia and the hotel. This Left us looking for another place… After 10 o’clock at night!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Our family of 4 was split across 2 rooms due to their smallish size, but it was still a great bargain compared to other options. The hotel is conveniently located for several pubs and restaurants as well as the promenade, beach, electric railway, and horse trams. It's not too far from the ferry terminal, and we made it just fine by walking. Would recommend staying here.
