Lovely, very reasonably priced, would pay more
Pros:

Owners very welcoming, pleasant and friendly. Everywhere might be a little dated, but it was spotless, the breakfast was included in the price, and I cant fault it. All freshly made, presented well and tasted lovely. No cheap products either. Can't fault at all.

Cons:

On arrival, we realised the Mapel was a distance from the centre, BUT, we left the car on the driveway, hopped onto a tram, very good. Enjoyed it.

Pleasant Promenade fronted hotel but not for us
Pros:

The owner seemed very nice and her son and staff were pleasant and attentive. The room was nicely decorated, with two chairs, a soft double bed, coffee facilities and a nice hot shower. Breakfast was tasty with a selection of cereals, fruit juices (apple & orange) and Full English (bacon, sausage, fried egg, hash brown, mushrooms, beans and half-tomato). Yummy.

Cons:

The first floor hallway (servicing Rooms 1 & 2 and a separate toilet) had an unpleasant smell of 'used toilets' and was very off-putting. Thankfully we could only smell it in the hallway and not in the room. Although the room was nicely decorated etc it was poorly planned. The ensuite was too small to include a sink, so the sink was located at the bottom of the bed? The TV was the smallest that I've ever had in a hotel or B&B and it was located halfway across the room alongside the coffee facilities making it difficult to see. One minor detail, the door lock was fitted wonky. Finally, the walk down for breakfast in the mornings wasn't nice, with the smell of cooking bacon mixed with the smell of toilets (thankfully it didn't put us off our breakfast).

Crap
Pros:

Room was freezing cold on arrival, hoteliers skimping on saving pennies. Christine was lovely but nosey asking me all about why I’d come to stay at her hotel, seemed I was an alcoholic because I’d asked for a couple of drinks to take up to my room on arrival. And what a room tiny, bland, comfy bed though and had a shower n toilet, including sea view. Went out for the day got back around 9ish place was dead, bar was shut. Room was luke warm went to bed, heating had been on from around 7 to midnight, room freezing at 1am. Terrible nights sleep so cold, got up at 6am thought ill have a nice shower to warm me up and pop down for breakfast which I was told was 9am-9:30am but I was freezing so thought hot shower and go for a beach walk back for breakfast at 9am, no hot water FFS! Now I’m mad. Went to talk with Christine the hotelier, she’d forgot to mention, they don’t heat the hotel all day and that you’ve got to run the freaking shower for 5 minutes before the hot water comes through, useful information, right! When I said I’d find a new hotel they refunded me the second night saying she didn’t have to as my booking wasn’t refundable after some half assed attempt to put it back onto my card they gave me cash, feels like fake notes. Called booking.com to advise id had no breakfast and have had hotter nights camping in winter than here and they give me a good will gesture of £10. Completely ruined my annual leave and visit to the theme park. Let’s hope they sell the place and let someone who can afford heating and hot water (you know, the basics), run the place!.

Cons:

Temperature, staff information, shower knowledge, breakfast, space and less fkn nosy
