Sad
UK hotels are so over priced for what you get and this one is a prime example. Both beds had very uncomfortable old mattresses. Paint peeling off walls. Poor, mismatched furnishings. Fire doors held open, no PAT of electricals. The only plus was the view but dirty windows don't help.

Shower drain clogged. If the cleaner clear the bathroom that they should have noticed. It's a great location and right at the beach. In general if they improve the room conditions. It is a nice place to stay.

Booked a suite with a queen and single bed which Expedia and the owner confirmed. Confirmed room over the phone with owner the day before. He still gave my room away to someone else leaving us with only a double room which meant we had to have someone sleep on the floor. Refused to issue refund or authorize Expedia to do so when they called.

Fine here! Clean and tidy, with just a couple of bits that could have been improved, but wouldn't stop me going again :) Car parking at North Road was 24 hours. This worked well for me.

The position of the hotel was excellent. It was clean but the mattress was very thin and you could feel the springs but for the money it was great.

Filthy windows
The staff at the hotel were friendly and helpful. The room was nice but the windows were so dirty and covered with seagull poo that you could not enjoy the view and gave the impression that the whole room was unclean and unsanitary. I was told that it was against health and safety laws for housekeeping to clean them.
