Parking was a large issue outside the hotel. Many guest had parking tickets over the weekend, Police were at the hotel on 2 of the 3 nights i stayed there dealing with issues at the door way. Great views from then terrace though and room of the sea, restaurant prices were very reasonable. Very close to the beach and town.

Tired, worn but nice

Old worn hotel. Cheap for a 1 night stay. We were a little worried due to the bad reviews. All in all it was nice. The bath was a little dirty which was rectified straight away. For the money we were very happy. We will stay there again. It certainly is grand inside and can only imagine what it was like in it’s day.
Byron, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The room was dirty with dirt on the walls and curtains curtains did not even shut. The sheets on the bed was dirty.

4/10 Fair

Awful. Would never go back

The hotel was very run down and unclean. The smells throughout the hotel were awful but the worst smell was in the blue lift. I ended up having to walk up and down between the 4 floors as it made me feel sick.

Maria, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Don't stay here!

Not good. The hotel foyer is 'Grand' the rest of the hotel is run down and needs renovating. There was no hot water from the taps or shower in our room and after reporting the issue to reception in the morning nothing had changed when we returned to the room in the evening.
