Pros:

Its right over the road from beach. Bus stop right outside. Walking to some resterants and cafes.
Staying here is a nice cheaper version then staying in brighton. Breakfast was nice. But it is a decent walk into Brighton so you kind of have to bus, Uber or bike. Family rooms were lovely

Great hotel.
Pros:

The breakfast was absolutely excellent 10/10

Cons:

Our room ( 51 ) had great views and was comfortable however it was an accessible room and we both found the toilet very difficult to use ( too high )

Great location
Pros:

Lovely location, right on the sea front. Staff were friendly & welcoming. Breakfast portions very generous, though not included in the booking price.

Cons:

The car park..really small & having found that there was no space, we had to turn the car round & squeeze out, must have been only an inch to spare either side! However, we were allowed to park out the front with the proviso that we would move if necessary.
Weather was very hot & despite the fan, the room temperature made it difficult to sleep.

Good value and a comfortable stay
Pros:

The staff wre all.cheerful. pleasant and helpful. The room was clean, quiet and comfortable. The bathroom was lovely. Breakfast didn't finish too early and check-out time was later than many hotels I've stayed in in the past.

Cons:

There was very little to dislike, but I would have preferred fresh fruit with my continental breakfast, rather than tinned.

Excellent hotel with comfortable rooms in a seafront location.
Pros:

Great location and access to buses into Brighton. Very comfortable room with good facilities. We were able to park right in front of the entrance to the hotel. The staff were excellent and showed flexibility.

Cons:

The hotel soundproofing between rooms could be better.

Good
Pros:

Very convenient to the venue we were going to.

Cons:

Parking an issue at the hotel. Even if there was a space at the back of the hotel, we would have had difficulty getting our car thru the gap
