The trip was great and the accomodation was brilliant, the management allowed me to check in early for a small fee which was fantastic. the room was well presented and it was very quiet considering the hotels location and the room i was given was next to their reception area.

The room was small, but comfortable, I only stayed a night there, the place is nicely decorated, bathroom facilities are a little small, taps in the sink did not work which need looking at urgently, overall though I was happy for what I paid.

The building tried. Hard to hide flaws with quirky paint scheme. First glance is very nice but facilities are awful. Our shower didn’t work and had to was using the sink. Bed was rock solid on a flimsy frame. Walls are not sound proof and anyone moving even a floor below would resonate in our room. Bloke snoring downstairs was soothing tho. Couple having sex in our ears was not so. Staff was incredibly friendly and never felt unsafe.

Booked for my Daughter for 3 nights a non refundable room , she managed 1 night and checked out and found a friend to stay with for the remaining 2 nights , the bed sheets were stained the room smelt damp and had mould in it , unfortunately as an asthma sufferer this exacerbated her symptoms and she made the decision to leave . I did message the property on the day my daughter left and still have had no response ! Don’t stay here

A little tired….

Bed was comfy (even if did fill room) I was expecting a single but got a double which was a plus. I had a good nights sleep. Parts are looking tired and the floor in bathroom needed repairs and the sink was literally falling off the wall…put my hand on it whilst brushing my teeth and literally moved! I hope they spend time now season coming to an end that they rectify these issues. Only mirror was above sink so couldn’t really see what I was wearing, but plug socket by bed near door to bathroom, meant I could straighten my hair.

This isn’t really a hotel it’s a converted house! This isn’t really an issue and I was sort of aware of that when I booked it. The overall experience was meh. The room was really small! Certain areas haven’t been cleaned in a very long time.. we found cigarette butts in the room, crumbs and other waste in chairs and on the floor and the shower had quite a bit of mould growing in it. The property provided less than the minimum when it comes to amenities not even having shampoo or body wash. Overall you get what you pay for and it’s in a really good location to get around Brighton but be aware it’s not up to the standard you’d expect with most chains.

Wouldn't stay here again.

We stayed at this hotel for 1 night, as we came down for a festival. On arrival there was confusion over our names (two people with the same name) which lead to a mix up in rooms and a car parking space. This was frustrating given that I had just paid to park, then ended up being refunded and spent ages finding somewhere else to park, however we understood how that could have happen. We moved to our allocted room, as per our booking and my partner noticed the window did not have a lock. We did not feel safe staying in a room without a window lock, especially as the property currently has scaffolding up. We were moved to a other room (this now being the third room), the situation with the window being the same. We explained that whilst we appreciated it was difficult to open it from the outside, it was absolutely doable. Not only were our belongings unsafe whilst we were out, but we felt unsafe at night. Why bother having a door lock if you don't do the same on the windows? We returned to our original room. So after all these issues and 4 room changes, this delayed us on getting ready and meant what was supposed to be a really fun exciting night, became so unnecessary and avoidably stressful. The bed was okay, but squeaks every time you remotely moves and the decoration in the hotel is okay if you aren't looking hard enough. I guess you pay for what you get. The hotel is obviously getting a face lift externally, but it still has alot to be desired.

Great Location - That's it! Upon arriving, we were greeted in a weed/smoke filled entrance hall. Understand we didn't pay much for this property but there should still be some level of professionalism when greeting guests. I half thought I'd walked into some student digs. Once we were in the room it didn't get any better. The place hadn't been thoroughly cleaned. There were stains on the bedding, dead flies and a layer of dust on the window sill. The Bathroom mirror was dirty with water marks and god knows what else, many stray hairs in the shower and bedding. Safe to say we were glad we weren't spending much time in the room. When it did come to sleeping we were awoken many a time by other guests coming and going. I can understand for the price why some people might treat this place as a come and go but the noise was very disturbing. Apart from the location this place is nothing like it looks like on the website. Wish we'd looked more thoroughly into the reviews as this place shouldn't even be classed as a hostel let alone a hotel. Will not be staying again and recommend you do not book here either!

Sometimes location is not everything!

We stayed for one night during the beach festival. The location is unbeatable, right by the beach, but the property itself is very outdated and doesn’t feel like a proper hotel. Check-in was quick and efficient, but the room was tiny and had a terrible smell, likely from an overpowering plug-in scent, which I had to unplug. Keeping the window open helped clear it out a bit. There were no bathroom amenities provided, which added to the overall disappointment. It’s a shame because the location is great and the place has real potential, but it seriously needs an update. Please do not use any scent in the room.

A good and safe short stay place

A very good location for staying in Brighton for a short visit. Has got everything that you need for a night or two. Longer stay with more time spent in the room than the sleeping and getting ready time would be an individual decision of whiat requirements are of importance or not for your own convenience.

Good location but incredibly dirty!

The room was decorated nice but was very dirty. There were marks all on the toilet and shower floor that looked easily wipeable with a cloth. The hot water tap didn’t work. There was dust all over the room - on the lampshade and under bed was incredibly thick dust.

Dirty

Not a great stay, was very dirty, carpet had so many stains the seating part by the window which could have been lovely to look out to the sea was ripped and really filthy, as for the shower, we didn't have one, a slow trickle of water but the main reason didn't have a shower was because it was so dirty didn't look like it had been cleaned for months.

Not what I expected

Bad points: Arrived at the hotel to find that my booking was not on the list despite booking back in January. The staff member then asked us to wait outside as there was no indoor seating area meaning we had to wait with our luggage. After approx 15 minutes the staff member advised us he ‘found a room’ for us and gave us the key. The hotel is small and very compact, spread over 3 floors. The room I specifically stayed in felt very small and there was not much standing height. The bathroom was tiny and there was a small sink in the corner that was too small to do anything with. The room appears to need a revamp as there is dried marks on the wall that looks like old condensation. The room I stayed in looked nothing like the pictures. There was also a brown smear near the bed frame that I washed off myself, I refrained from flagging this to the staff as I knew there would be no other room to transfer to as the hotel was at capacity. The bed was very firm and uncomfortable and the room was overal very stuffy Good points: very close to city centre and beach front

Avoid at all costs!!!!

I booked a double room they tried to give me a single covered in flies when there was clearly two of us. Room was then changed to what I originally booked but then room was again filled with flies everywhere. Found a secret camera in one of the ceiling lights. The bathroom had to air vents. The window was full of mould. The rooms surrounding us were very loud during the night due to the thin walls. As the hotel is on a slope, our room was slanted with the head of the bed descending. Just a terrible dirty experience. Never again!!!!

Avoid avoid and avoid

Avoid avoid and avoid this place, turn up couple minutes before checking in, and the door was locked, pressed the bell many times and no response, even phoned the three numbers they have pinned in a clear plastic wallet which was trenched and ripped and still no response, stayed around for 30mins and no one came, blue wall outside the front door was falling and very unsafe. Contacted Hotels.com answered their scripted question and they tried to contact them and they didn't have a response. Had an email today (6.3.24) from hotels.com saying I can't have refund as the property (who answered this morning 6.3.24) said they wouldn't give a refund as it was a nonrefundable room (again I will say no one was at the property nor answered the bell or the phone, and also didn't answer when hotels com phoned on the day I was supposed to stay... Please tell me how that is fair.... Please avoid this place and read all the review
