First break of work
Pros:

Staff friendly and helpful great location as near shops and local attractions..short walk to the beach and sealife centre and lovely walk in the gardens. We go there due to it being that our favourite restaurant the funki griller is about 15 to 20 mins away from burley court hotel.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

What was there to like. A broken window that opened on a windly day. Room heating not working. Bedside socket not working.Yes theh changed the room for us in the night, but still the room was so cold the heating was at max but not efficient. The board torn and projecting at the side of tha bathtub, causing risk to trip and fall. The flush in the toilet was very week. We booked for three nights, but stayed for just one night and moved to another hotel. We had a horrific stay. Don't put false reviews and trap tourists. I will never recommend this place for anyone
