Ideale plek aan de zee en bij Brighton
Pros:

Locatie optimaal: aan het strand (dat daar momenteel hard gewerkt wordt waardoor grote delen zijn afgezet kan hotel niets aan doen; vlakbij Brighton met bushalte voor de deur; leuke eetgelegenheden in de buurt.

Verwacht geen luxe maar de bedden zijn van perfecte kwaliteit, meer dan genoeg kastruimte, grote tv, comfortabel zithoekje, zeer ruime badkamer, alles erg schoon. Alles een beetje outdated maar dat stoort niet.

Ontbijt is goed met zelfs een machine met bonenkoffie ipv de eeuwige opgewarmde oploskoffie. Warme gerechten goed klaargemaakt. Als er al een minpuntje was, dan is het de ietwat beperkte vlees- en kaaskeuze bij continental gedeelte.

Cons:

Sommige mensen aan de receptie liepen niet over van vriendelijkheid.

Brighton Break
Pros:

The staff were very helpful and welcoming. The only thing we didn't like was the fact we were in a ground floor room that was noisy at times. The room was clean and comfortable but we could hear all conversations in the Reception area. Also the room was next to swing doors that staff used and you could hear this. There was also an intermittent noise that I can only describe as a pump or something kicking into action. The breakfast was good and again the staff really pleasant and helpful. For us personally the hotel was too far to walk into Brighton centre. But that's our concern as you can book closer. The price for 2 on a 1 night stay is good value but maybe request a room on the upper floor! Again, good value for money and a good breakfast. In that respect met our expectations,
but just noisy at times.

Cons:

Just the fact it was a bit noisy.
