Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was basic but clean and comfortable. The radiator in my room made the stay cozy though. The service was excellent from booking in to leaving, and I really enjoyed the breakfast. The location was efficient for our stay, and I loved being close to the station and Pleasure Beach. The dining experience was enjoyable, especially the fried bread. The facilities were great overall.
The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms need some care as they seemed high-quality ages ago but have been neglected since. The service was a mix of attentive care and a few mishaps. The location offered convenience near the attractions but had some cleanliness issues. The dining experience was a hit or miss. Overall, a stay with some good points but important areas that need improvement.
