Tired tatty hotel Muslim halal food only allowed
Pros:

Not a great deal if honest

Cons:

It was tired and dated in desperate need of a refurb and unwelcoming!
Was asked if we wanted a full English breakfast, said yes x4 please and when it arrived it had no bacon chicken sausages and all was cold! Was then told it’s a Muslim hotel and they won’t serve you pork only halal food!! We left it and declined breakfast the next day! Not exceptable

A wonderful clean hotel great staff
Pros:

The place was spotlessly clean I was really impressed I liked how it was located near the promenade and central to many places.

Cons:

The only thing was the breakfast. They said previously that it would be a full English but it was a disappointing continental.

Pros:

Continental breakfast was great !

Cons:

Coffee at breakfast was sachets was a bit dissapointing ! No heating on room as was cold same with breakfast area! Parking for only 1 car was an issue and booked hotel on line and to struggle to get hold of owner as front door locked ! Messed around to park and get hold of owner after 30mins ! Tired and a long day didn’t help !
