Pros:

It is a great holiday to stay at, near to the Gaiety Theatre and in walking distance to the train station.
I love the breakfast.

Cons:

The only thing I did not like was the messages to tell me to upgrade, in total I got 6 messages in a few days. I called the hotel and they told me it automated and they did not know this was happening. I clicked up grade, when got to the hotel, couldn’t upgrade as the hotel was full 🤷🏻‍♀️ Was very happy with my room anyway.

Great staff.
Pros:

Reception and bar area were nice and modern. Staff friendly and helpful. Location central. Rooms a good size even though it was the compact room.

Cons:

Room furniture a bit tired and dated. Cooked breakfast wasn't that good. Breakfast started at 7am and by 7.20am it looked like it had been sitting under the heat for hours especially the beans as they were dry. Not worth the £17.00 they were charging for it.

Worst nights sleep I’ve ever had
Pros:

Hotel was close to the shops

Cons:

Window was broken letting in lots of cold air all I could hear were gusts of wind whistling through the gap in the window had to use the throw that was on the bed as a draught excluder

Ideal location and a decent hotel at a good price.
Pros:

Location is really good, close to both the High St and the seafront. THe room was comfortable with a spectular view. Wifi was better than most hotels. The breakfast was fine and the bar food was really nice. The staff were super helpful.

Cons:

A very minor niggle really, the desk was a little small and cluttered even with just the phoine on it. Personally I would make it slightly larger and relocate to the other side (under the TV). The chair was not the comfiest.
