Pros:

Really lovely breakfast.

Cons:

Little bit noisier than expected with some traffic from the road and rooms below. Very pricey. Sadly a popular area and limited choice in the area.

Great location for ferry crossings.
Pros:

We booked Crouchers at short notice after a missed ferry crossing. The staff were most helpful and our room had a French window onto the garden which was perfect as we had our dog with us. We had dinner in the restaurant and the food was excellent, as was the breakfast. There is also EV charging in the car park which was very handy. I would thoroughly recommend Crouchers Hotel.

Nice stay but breakfast is a joke.
Pros:

The room was spacious and parking was free.

Cons:

Breakfast was £21.50
I arrived at 9.57am and they accommodated me but I had whatever was left from the continental breakfast (which was basically nothing) and the Full English arrived without the sausage but a few slices of bacon extra instead.

For the price, it felt like a mugging.

Room underwhelming.
Pros:

Well located, easy to find and ample parking. Lovely food in the restaurant and main hotel areas attractive.

Cons:

Our room was rather tired and underwhelming - the bath and basin taps were defective and loose, the bed was poorly made on arrival and whilst re-making we noted the mattress protector was ripped and one pillow was soiled and had no protector. Furniture was marked by water stains and there was minimal tea / coffee supplies and just one small bottle of water and one packet of biscuits despite being a double room booked for two people. 3 random towels of varying sizes and styles. Door closers need adjusting on room doors as we were frequently disturbed by adjacent/above rooms. Overall, our room had budget break vibes.
