We had issues with our room initially because there was a horrible smell. They investigated and could not immediately resolve it so upgraded our room without us even knowing! The staff were really lovely and approachable. Great stay.

the water in the bathroom sink not only seemed to also fill with a previous guests hair shavings. The bed was propped up on blocks and the pillows rather unsavoury under the cases. The staff were very engaging and helpful but the hotel is more than needing some love and attention.

Parking great short stroll to hotel I minute Staff polite and friendly. Room disappointing as very dark. Bathroom tiny and felt claustrophobic. No views just scruffy iron staircase outside. Ceiling needs looking at. Cracks with flaky paint work. Room needs money spent on it to brighten it up and modernise it. It is perfectly positioned to enjoy the Pantiles and get around RTW. Main area bar and outside area perfect We had great time
