What expected for the price
Pros:

Pretty close to the sea, easy parking
It was cheap for 1 night

Cons:

Wouldn’t stay again, not really welcoming
It has much potential or maybe it used to be very good, but very tired and needs lots of TLC

Pros:

The room , towels and toilet were clean enough.
However, the premises are very 'tired '.
No permanent receptionist, met one member of staff at registration, he was helpful by giving me a room.closer to the entrance as lift was out of order.(I was told it had been for some time). That was the last time I saw any staff.The only surviving signage on the hotel front were the A, I, and T. Which made made it difficult to recognise it as the MARINE HOTEL from.the outside.

Cons:

See above
