I am a seasoned traveller staying in hotels all over the world. I stay in hotels at least once a week sometimes for as long as 30 days. I am just back from a recent trip to this hotel, and a quick scan through all the reviews says it all really, Its quite bad. I booked via booking.com and paid... More

i would say that the hotel is extremely bad. upon booking, they should have contacted me to let me know that they were undergoing refurbishment, but they didn't and as I arrived, i thought "what the hell is going on?" and as for the room, it was very spacious, only one problem the room smelt very strongly of cigarette smoke...

We booked a 5 day break with Leasuretime, we knew the hotel wasnt great by the reviews but it was shocking! There are notices everywhere saying that it is being refurbished and it needs it, but perhaps it would have been better to close while this was happening? Our room had ;- a double bed, single bed, and bunk beds... More

Stayed in a family room overlooking the sea. Beautiful view!!! Room was nice and clean although the bathroom wasn't as clean a bit disappointing. The food was nice buffet style. The hotel was undergoing some repairs at the back of the hotel but this did not affect us. Lift is a bit old and would imagine hard to manoeuvre in... More

Stayed there 7-8th July 2013. And I have to agree with every poor comment made about the hotel. Firstly when we got there, the car park was fully booked....the hotel CHARGE you to have a priority booking (way to con you out of more money). The décor is pastal pink which reminded me of a old peoples home - and... More

I bought a groupon voucher for a 2 night stay. Although I only paid £59 I didn't expect it to be so bad. The room was tiny and originally a single. The single head board screwed to the wall gave it away! The double bed was up against the wall and a wardrobe at the other side so was only... More

I stayed here 4 days as part of a coach tour and found that although much of the hotel needs updated, my stay was pleasant. It was apparent that some refurbishment has taken place although the room I stayed in was tired and dated with a very old but still working ok TV. My room was large and it was... More
