Trina, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Incredible staff, beautiful room, good breakfast and in general a sweet town.
Jesper, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I found the hotel good but agree with past reviews it does need money investing in it. Our room was massive with 4 poster bed and balcony. We ate in the restaurant and the fish and chips were top notch. But best of all was the service received from Jim the man who’s seems to run the hotel all on his own. He made us feel like we were staying in a 5 star hotel. We would definitely stay here again.
Tracy, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Rachel, 1-night trip

I would wish for s complete refurbishing, back to the original, which is very nice.
Welmoet, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Avoid at all costs!

Dirty rooms, tv’s done work, windows held open but cut of pieces of wood/timber. Dirty bathroom’s and a shower that does not work! If knew how to ask for a refund I would. Loud and nosey guests all night long with no night manager to contact
David, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

My stay was comfortable and friendly. The food was of a good standard. The room was clean and functional but a little dated in style. The Wifi was adequate most of the time, however it was not available everywhere in the room, only worked in one particular spot. Housekeeping was available every day. The staff was small but friendly and accommodating. All in all a good stay.

Awful

Its got parking is the only positive. A once beautiful building left to rot. The staff they had tried his best but wanted a lot of help. Wallpaper hanging off walls, musty smell, avoid at all costs.
