Cleanliness
6.5
Multiple reviewers reported pet smell in corridors, stained shower fittings, dirty bathroom curtain, slow-draining sink and drain smells, and a cigarette smell in the lift — lowers overall cleanliness impression.
Service
9
Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, helpful and amazing on several stays; isolated report of an unfriendly checkout interaction but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised: excellent location close to beach/centre, great bay views and convenient for attractions — a clear strong point across reviews.
Room Quality
9
Many guests mention large, comfortable rooms, good views and well-equipped rooms (fridge, hairdryer, iron). Some rooms were reported as excessively hot and a few maintenance issues (sash window, bathroom button) but overall very positive.
Amenities
9
Good on-site amenities noted (bar area, parking, stocked mini-fridge, toiletries, iron/ironing board). Minor negatives: poor fan provided and limited local walk/ride info.
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed signals: described by one as a budget option but others note high restaurant prices and extra charges (small dog fee); generally acceptable value but not outstanding.
Food and Beverage
8
Food receives praise in places (‘‘really good’’) but breakfast cooked options are limited/poorly executed for some guests, and restaurant menu choices/pricing drew criticism.
Overall Experience
9.5
Majority of stays described as enjoyable, many guests plan to return or were on repeat stays; strong overall satisfaction despite a few issues.

Was ok
Pros:

Breakfast was ok plenty of continental choice but as far as a traditional full English very poor and eating it with dogs barking was not good 😐 I know it's dogs friendly but in the restaurant I think spoiled it .should not be allowed.

Cons:

All the dogs in restaurant. Over priced bar and main night time restaurant prices. The hotel is getting ready for a good overhaul paint both inside and out.

Stay somewhere else.
Pros:

Free coffee

Cons:

No hot water in the room.
Every time upstairs flushed the toilet the water gushed through a soil pipe boxed in in our room(Room 2) I was woken 4 times through the night . The restaurant is terrible, they forgot our mains order, once they had remembered they bought 3-4 of 4. I had finished my main before my wife had received hers. You could see that it was all rushed. Breakfast is disgusting slops, the breakfast room was a mess, only a couple of slices of dry bread, no coffee in the machine. Everything was ultra cheap. There is some streaky bacon, beans and scrambled egg but none of it is nice.

Great location, but take ear plugs.
Pros:

The location and shared facilities were great, two lounges which were very comfortable with free hot beverages and cake and a plethora of dogs to watch!
Decor was quirky in the rooms and the shower was excellent as were the towels and coffee in the room.

Cons:

Its an old building, so I shouldn't be surprised but the single glazed windows were drafty and noisy, the floor was wonky (meaning my head was lower than my feet when laid in bed) - but again, old building. The furniture was a bit battered and my room was very small, luckily my 6ft6 husband was not with me, so for a solo short occupant it was fine.

Also when I checked in there was the remains of a preflushed poo in the loo......which then made me wonder about the cleanliness of the rest of the room. I flushed without thinking and mentioned it to reception upon going out.
