Terrible and not worth it
Pros:

Staff was very friendly and efficient

Cons:

Rooms are extra small and feel dated, bed was uncomfortable and we could hear everything that happened in the hallway, which meant waking up to everyone that passed by our door.
Breakfast was not worth the price

Pros:

Staff were very friendly, location is very good (I would prefer this to V&A) and breakfast was good as well. Sea front is a stones throw and lots of restaurants and bars one street away - not very well advertised ! Not sure there is a need to go to V&A for food !

Cons:

Room was small with not enough space to walk between Bed and furniture. Room was not best value for money. Balcony was small too and name sake

Отель выглядит сильно дешевле, чем стоит за ночь
Pros:

Отличная локация, удобная кровать, маленький но хороший тренажерный зал

Cons:

В номере на было мыла для душа, просто пустой диспенсер. В душе не было шланга и гигиенического душа. Ванна не удобная, внизу в холле очень сильно пахнет ароматом, концентрированный запах вызывает кашель и тошноту. Фен был без адаптера с европейской розеткой, не смогла включить его((
