Very dated
This place doesn’t look like it’s been updated since the 70’s. There was a room and it had a bed. That’s about as much as I can say for it.

Will not stay there again
Staff in reception very friendly, the rest is not good.
The bed linen was dirty, stains on pillow cases and human hair in the sheets, room was cold on arrival, heating was off, bathroom very run down and needs a big upgrade. Bath towels dirty and have seen better days.
Restaurant food was microwave food.

Not a place we would stay again
The rooms were probably last decorated in the 1980's. Carpet is stained. Blinds didnt work. Windows dont open. There is only one towel. Bed was uncomfortable & the white covers were grey from age. Needs an update

Room was clean and welcoming. Bed was a bit creaky and uncomfortable. Pillows were also flat.
Wouldn’t stop me staying again though

Friendly staff, comfortable stay
I stopped 20-21 Oct. as well visiting friends in the area before and after my visit to the Isle of Wight. I chose it for its closeness to the train station but a very busy main road with no pedestrian filter between the station and the hotel made it more difficult than expected.
Friendly helpful staff and very clean little hotel for one night stopover. Breakfast choice was rather limited with no cornflakes or fruit available. My room was downstairs and was well furnished including a desk and plenty of drawers. A very comfortable night. The towels included a huge bath sheet - a definite bonus. All in all, thank you for looking after me so well!

The bedroom wasnt what i expected, i've neber stayed in a room that untidy, for the money that i've paid i was expecting at least a good bed to sleep. The bed is full of bumps and the bed sheets are very old. Towels are so old that threads are coming out. Is like going back 30 years in this room.
I came here with my daughter because in the morning she's haveing a gymnastics competition and we were hoping to hev a good restful night before wich for me definitely wasnt

A very tired hotel
The reception experience was very good and easy parking, but that was about all! The signage when we arrived had a different name to the booking, so was difficult to identify (we sailed past). Everywhere was rather tired and the beds not very comfortable (old and cheap mattress). We didn't take breakfast so can't comment on this.

Lovely little hotel
Check in was quick and friendly. The room was spacious and we had a disabled room not our choice but was a lovely hot wet room for the bathroom. Its a shame the hotel is closing soon, to be made into flats.
