It was dirty when you entered. Lounge area was in a state of disrepair. Room was disgusting mould in shower cubicle.

Absolutely awful. Air show weekend we booked and upon arrival we were told our room was canx. No email before hand which the owner was adamant he sent. He had rooms available for three hundred pound!! When our orginal room was under hundred. Multiple people turned up same time as us just one told the same. Seemed like he didn’t realise it was air show weekend so canx rooms to earn more money. Awful. Wasn’t even a reception desk, walked into an empty room greeted by a man and a random dog. One couple told us they paid the extra money and instead of giving them the double room they paid for they got a room with bunk beds in.! avoid avoid. Yet to get my refund may I add…

I got a phone call from someone asking what time we were checking in as jo one would be there to check us in. This was nit the owner but was helping him out. Upon arrival we got sent a few different room numbers and and codes to gain entry. The front door was not secure. When we did finally gain entry to a room the would not lock and it was filthy and unmade. The whole property is a debacle. We left without staying and found other accommodation as did not feel safe. This property should be removed from the site. I have applied for a refund but doubtful i will get one.

DO NOT BOOK

Absolutely appalling! For one it’s false advertising looks nothing like the photos on the advertisement! Got to the room and wow I have no words, pictures to follow! The cleanliness WHAT CLEANLINESS! the only thing clean about this stay was the bag in the bin! I booked this room as a treat for my grandson as he had just finished his SATS and I was absolutely gutted and mortified! Then to top it off we went down for breakfast everyone around me got their breakfasts I was told they forgot about mine. I would have never have booked it I knew then what know now!

Found property. No response from ringing bell. Entered through front door which was partly open. Shouted, couldn't find anybody present inside but there was a dog shut in a cupboard under the stairs with door ajar. Eventually a couple, apparently living in the property, told us that there had been no hotel business there for years. Whole place is dirty, dingy, rundown, smelly and we wouldn't have stayed even if it was open. Yet it is still listed in Expedia - IT SHOULD BE REMOVED. We didn't pay in advance but anybody who did would probably lose their money.

As its under new ownership they're finding their feet, needs a bit of life breathing into the place. Needs new toilet seats and shower heads and a lick of paint. VJ was very helpful and accommodating, he even bought pizza for the kids. I would happily stay again in the future, perfectly situated opposite south pier

I have asked Expedia to remove this property from their site. On arrival was taken to a room and somebody was sleeping in the bed in the room allocated for me. I was taken to another room which can only be described as unsafe and filthy the toilet had been used and not flushed And the curtain was hanging off the rail. The carpet was also filthy with debris all over a word of warning Expedia are only limited in what they can do they were unable to affect a refund I booked in at a better hotel around the corner. I recognise this is a cheap hotel But there are minimum standards
