The manager Martin was a gentleman and got whatever you needed
Philip, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff. Good food. Clearly there are some issues regarding the management if the hotel as the decor was tired, some things like the bathroom extraction did not work and it was evident that underneath the beds had not been cleaned in a long time. But overall the stay was pleasant. Overpriced for what you get.
Gary, 2-night trip

Fairly good if you want a well priced decent bed for the night, perfect we stayed whilst playing golf in the area. Pretty good to be fair
ross, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Friendly staff but property unfinished, dirty under the bed that doesn't look like its been cleaned for months and in dire need of refurbishment. Also very limited breakfast choice with no options if you are a vegetarian or vegan.

Booked 3doubles with onsuite got 2 no tea or coffee in one off the rooms very run down ,just bit old and tired needs lots off money spending on it.

6/10 Good

Basically fine

All of these reviews are correct. I stayed here for one night, and it was basically fine. Towels were obviously clean (as in they had been washed) but were stained; bedding was clean. Some hairs in the shower etc … The decor is in need of
Christine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was very tired with exposed electrical wires, the room has never been dusted (cobwebs everywhere). Worst of all the bedding on one of the beds has never been changed from previous guests. Majority of the bedding and towels had marks on them. Would never go back
Anastasia, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotel was clean, spacious and quiet. In need of decoration. Owners say they have taken over hotel and are in process of redecoration. Was quiet and peaceful.
Joanne, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very run down accommodation. Cleanliness poor, bed and pillows uncomfortable, bathroom had an unpleasant smell. Told front door was open until 10.pm arrived back at 6pm to find it looked. Rang hotel for someone to let us in and we were told we should have used the door code. Next day door locked again tried doorcode 4 times and wouldn't unlock. Rang hotel again and made to feel that we had bothered them. Never any staff about. Made to feel that as we were out of season and they couldn't be bothered. Not allowed to add photos of hotel and staff without their permission.
Judith, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ok

It was ok, parts of hotel are in need of renovation but basically clean. Room was small for 2 of us for 4 day stay. Breakfast was freshly cooked but a bit sparse for me as I’m gluten intolerant and they didn’t seem to understand what that meant. We didn’t eat in the hotel- feel that if they upped their game on the food it would help reviews.
Sharon, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel restaurant was Indian plus some local food. Was amazing meal highly recommend hotel but especially Indian food fantastic.
Mike, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We found the hotel quite shabby . The hotel has potential, but there is a lack of welcoming hospitality. Room was ok, but needed dusting. Parking on the road extremely hard to find a place close by
Terry, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Are you in the mood for a depressing seaside hotel with black mold, electrical wires draped over furniture, filthy towels and public hair in the sink? Well then - do I have the place for you! Did I mention the front desk staff is oblivious to your suggestions to clean the room and make it habitable? If all of the above is not what you are looking for then just search for hotels with more than one star.
Jeff, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Hotel is in need of repair, room so ok beds were comfy our biggest issue was no hot water to have a shower in the morning looking at previous reviews this has been an issue for a while.
Richard, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Toilet did not flush, this was reported but no the problem was not remedied. Other guest were noisy , exacerbated by banging from the fire door whenever anyone moved along the corridor. Rooms were not very clean.
