Pleasant, good amenities near by
Pros:

The host was lovely and the hotel was well placed for the football which is why we were there. Having the pub downstairs and a takeaway next door was also super handy.

Cons:

I do feel like the room was quite overpriced for what it was. There were a few snags for instance breakfast was advertised in the room but when we went down in the morning the restaurant was shut and we were told it wouldn’t open until 12pm. The room was also quite dirty however once we realised this the next morning it was cleaned.

Adequate
Pros:

I booked a single room - it was small but ok. There was no reading light so to switch off lights meant getting out of bed. The sink in the bathroom was really tiny so not great for washing faces. The bed was not that comfortable and only one pillow was provided.
There was a fridge which was a bonus.
Karaoke in the pub directly under my room went on until 11.30pm but it was a Saturday and staff warned me about this as I checked in.
Overall a little pricey for the what it was but adequate for one night.

Cons:

Lack of reading light near bed.

Overall ok, given the location to the stadium (although 25 mins into Brighton in a taxi).
Pros:

Pub was nice, bedroom was pretty small, bathroom decent. Walking distance to the Amex Stadium.

Cons:

Parking on match day wasn’t a great experience. Hardly any spaces , had to park on quite a steep hill.
