A great seafront old-school Hotel
Pros:

Fantastic location, great staff. The tv had all the UK on-demand catch-up services which in my experience is unusual. Sea-front location is excellent

Cons:

It's a typical old British seaside hotel. A little noisy, but quaint...could do with a modern coffee machine etc....

Pros:

I loved how it was on the beach, and close to everything I wanted to do.

Cons:

The only critique would be the very late check in 4pm and early check out 10 am. However they were very accommodating by taking my luggage so that I could look around.

Acceptable
Pros:

The location was good as opposite beach with good sea view. The room decor was very nice.

Cons:

Room was smaller than exprected. There was little room to put anything in bathroom, as no shelves, just the sink. Not much storage in room itself. No room mini fridge or coffee maker. The bed was uncomfortable. Bedding nice but matress felt old and lumpy. Had a back ache after staying. Pillows had little filling in them.
