Perfekt am Pier, praktisch zum Parkieren, wir haben es genossen!
Pros:

Der Ort, die Stadt ist so schön! Wir konnten unkompliziert am Pier parken und einchecken, der Raum ist gross, bequeme Betten, perfekt für eine Nacht hier!

Cons:

Leider war das Pub unten geschlossen, es war 30 Grad zu diesem Zeitpunkt und nur wenig Möglichkeit zu lüften.

It’s a cheap option for a one night stay, don’t expect too much
Pros:

Room 6 was an OK sized twin room and a good sized bathroom on the top floor, cheap at 65 quid for the night for two motorcyclists. Location just 100 yards from the pier is good but that’s about all i can say that’s positive.

Cons:

The seagulls are noisy and there is a bright street light just outside the window. Parking is NOT on site but is a 2-3 minute walk away at St Michael’s Church Car Park. The overzealous Parking Warden doesn’t even allow time to unload your vehicle. There is metered parking on the waterfront not far away but for a maximum of 4 hours, no return for a further 4 hours, so overnight parking is not possible. From the outside the hotel looks abandoned and entry is through the side door is a disgustingly dirty alley.

Like a dosshouse.
Pros:

Nothing and there were no staff there.

Cons:

It was squalid,cramped and not very clean. The facilities were absolutely basic and the shower was in a state of disrepair. Room was small, decor and furnishings were minimal.
This property should not be on Booking.com’s list.
Appalling, see photos.
