The hotel is in the middle of much needed renovations. However that meant that our corridor had no carpet only mdf and bits kept being walked into our bedroom. Also the stairs were out of action which meant waiting ages for a lift even though they have two. Our room had outdated furniture and was very ‘tired’. The balcony door didn’t open and shut properly so fresh air was an issue, we couldn’t open the door fully as our little dog could have got out and wasn’t safe. We couldn’t fault the friendliness of the staff who were always willing to help.

A very tired room with poor maintenance. For cost there is better more local. Only plus side is that for venue we were attending this was very close. Breakfast was very low value again for cost paid better available elsewhere would not stop again.

Stayed 3 nights at this hotel. Had to move room as the the windows in in 212 were not able to be opened and it was very warm, luckily moved next door which was better. They are currently renovating so new carpet being laid on the landings. The bed we had was comfortable and large.Very oldy worldy style hotel so it has character. Just across the road from the beach, stairs and slopes and a tram down to beach level. Just around the corner from the shops, plenty of eating places.
