Way overpriced for a very worn out and dated hotel. Needs major overhaul, and was charging more than the best western pe
Pros:

There was not much to like. Coffee was okay. Lady was nice at the front desk. Helpful with directions.

Cons:

bed was too soft, spiderwebs everywhere, dirty and worn out rooms , that was charging an excessive amount of money for 2 nights. Very bad state, worn out, bathroom was bad- caulked over moldy areas, floors are warped, painting is peeling, gringy desk and drawers, Breakfast was bad, wrapped processed cheese and butter was not even cooled, j was served but it looked like over date, the salt and pepper shakers were sticky and not cleaned for a long time. Second day we went somewhere else for breakfast.

Cheaper than others, but tired and disappointing. Poor Vfm .
Pros:

Location was ok and the receptionist was friendly enough.

Cons:

The room we stayed in was stuck in the 1970s. The shower was over the bath , the wallpaper was peeling off the wall, there was only one bath towel between the two of us. The sheets and duvets had seen much better days. It was cheaper than other hotels in Southport so we knew it wouldn’t be top notch, but it was still disappointing .

Excellent value for money, and a very peaceful stay.
Pros:

Really helpful and friendly staff, and our room with a balcony and garden is fantastic, clean and tidy although a little outdated but that's not a problem, we have really enjoyed our stay, we also had breakfast every day and is really good value for money, pet friendly which is a great thing, we will definitely be booking again for September and really looking forward to seeing the staff and sites of Southport again, Honestly a excellent value for money stay and we rate this hotel 10/10

Pros:

Good location, decor like from an Agatha Christie novel. Generally clean and quiet.

Cons:

My stay was during a heatwave. It's not exactly the hotel's fault, but the room was hot and stuffy. They should consider investing is some fans or something.
