Clean comfortable beds

Beds were clean and very comfortable. The lady on reception was very polite and helpful. Easy to get parked. The cost is very much on par with what you get. We just needed somewhere to lay our heads that’s not too far from the town centre (8 minute walk). Would stay here again. Thanks very much :)

Hot Skeggy

A decent week in a very hot Skegness, in a room that got the sun all afternoon. The shower was no bigger then a Phone Box & being a big Northern Lad found it a tight squeez.

I was really impressed with my room. It was also very clean. Bed was comfortable. Staff were brilliant upon arrival and also when i departed. Only negative feedback i give is i don't think they should charge customers for wanting to leave their luggage on day of departure. Customers who don't drive will more than likely want to leave luggage somewhere safe but i feel like this service should be free.
