Not B&B as requested or what they advertise in the rooms but the very basic requirements for a nights stay. Room was v hot even with window wide open all night. Not somewhere I could stay for more than 1 night.
The property is very clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are very comfortable
I will go back there to stay again.
Love it close to the to the beach and shops.❤️

Your average B&B
A standard no-frills B&B. Staff were polite enough. The room was average but the bed was quite comfy. Quite expensive for what it was. Parking is an absolute nightmare anywhere near the hotel.

It’s ok but not anything special
So not terrible but not amazing either. Room quite small and previous occupants 1/2 used shower gel on the shower for me. Bring your own pillow, the singular pillow was as deep as an iPhone.
Toilet filled at such a slow drip it was like a form of torture.
Main room area was clean and tidy.

Great location , great budget hotel
Location is brilliant three minute walk from town centre right up the pier
It’s a family run business and the whole family was lovely. Nothing was too much trouble.
Yes, the rooms are a bit outdated, but the cleanest of the rooms was hundred percent
The bar and lounge area is very comfortable to sit in and have a couple of drinks and the prices of the drinks are very reasonable
100% would stay again
Thank you
Lovely hotel will definitely visit again if I had to pick something I didn’t like it would be all the shouting from people outside from other hotels so nothing they could do about that
Hotel is in serious need of updating, but it was cheap and in good location

Can't complain about the hotel. staff were polite and friendly and it was a reasonable stay. Like a lot of hotels around the UK, they do look tired . the communal areas such as the reception and bar were ok and so where the rooms but could do with a makeover. Something to note, like other hotels, parking is awkward and you may not be able to park outside the hotel.

It was great, nice and polite staff, excellent location and enjoyed the stay. They just charged for the extra towel.
Iv made a complaint, I’m so unhappy with this hotel, it’s literally disgusting. The staff were rude when they were about but even that was hard work trying to find someone to help, the bed had springs sticking out, Iv not slept a wink, it’s actually unbelievable

Location and staff good, outlook not great due to semi demolished hotel across road. Hotel a bit rundown tatty, dated but it is clean, also offered free breakfast but not available when I stayed. I don't think it was worth what I payed to stay.

Afton Hotel was a very pleasant surprise - the cleanest hotel I have been in in Eastbourne for the last three years. Staff were great - very obliging and friendly. Food was delicious - especially the “full English” breakfast. I didn’t quite understand why the Continental breakfast was the same price (‘£10) as the full English - shouldn’t it be less ?
The Aftor is very good value. I will definitely stay here again when I am in this area.
Lovely clean hotel . Room comfortable . Staff really friendly helpful. Breakfast a bit expensive £12 per person bit basic could do with a coffee machine as coffee was cold full English was tasty no yogurt fruit . Overall really nice stay good price ideal location opposite pier

The hotel was ok but in desperate need of a facelift.
Booked bed and breakfast but no breakfast on the last morning.
Room ok but both bathroom door and windows need replacement especially the windows.
