Pros:

Was local, clean and tidy in the room and bed was comfortable

Cons:

Stank of cigarette smoke throughout the hotel, we got greeted at the reception and breakfast that we paid for only at 8.30am sharp no time to make it. Usually you get a time between 8-10am or what ever? So that was disappointing.

The room was fantastic, the staff were very busy but always welcoming and very helpful.
Pros:

Fantastic setting right on the beach and only a 10 minute walk to town

Cons:

There was scaffolding up, but that can’t be helped as work needs to be done. The inside decor on the stairs and landing is looking very shabby

Trains were at a crawl due to the heat, so our unplanned stay made the journey time worth the visit.
Pros:

Excellent location. Avaiable at short notice; we hadn't intended stopping over.

Cons:

I was told it was a new law that I had to show ID. It was fortunate I happened to have a photo of my passport on my phone. Later discovered this law only applies to non-UK citizens. My name, appearnce and accent couldn't be more British if I tried, so why was I subjected to this indignity?

Faulty Towers but still enjoyable - lovely staff and great location
Pros:

If you remember watching Faulty Towers as we do you’ll like this hotel as we did - Staff welcoming & helpful, ballroom & entertainment good, family room a good size & location for us was perfect
Lovely big building with some very nice rooms & fantastic sea views :)

Cons:

Staff overwhelmed by coach trips, we were forgotten at breakfast & they ran out of ingredients, we had to eat it in the bar area due to coach trips, plastic mattress protectors & on pillows add to heat in hot weather. Windows have limited opening capacity ! Overall very clean room but shower in room a little grubby & no air con or fan provided. Children (I presume staffs allowed to sit at reception was not professional)
But saying all this staff quick & polite ready to respond to problems :) they are obviously used to it

Hotel was not what we had hoped. Excellent location. Will not make return visit.
Pros:

Excellent location facing beautiful beach.
Car parking facilities
Sea view - beach opposite hotel
Close to facilities and town

Cons:

Breakfast rather rushed as had to eat after the coach parties finished theirs. Not buffet style, had to order the night before and then they lost our order. Not a relaxed breakfast we had hoped for and didn't enjoy.

Hotel concentrates on coach bookings.
Basic tea facilities offered in room, (no biscuits, no decafe tea/coffee).
Need to have ID with you to book in.
