The bed was comfortable. The tv in the room included netflix. IT was great that the location was good.
I could not get coffee due to no cups and milk. A lady replenished this , but it vanished later.

Comfortable Base Near the Tower

quiet room easy check-in
The hotel is a short walk to the beach and tower. Self check-in was easy with a straightforward code system. I had a very quiet room at the back, spacious and away from the main street noises. The shower worked well and I used the hot water machine downstairs.
I noticed a lack of a hairdryer both in the room and available on-site.
Dining
8/10
There is no breakfast service at the hotel. A communal dining room offers tea, coffee, and a microwave for guest use. Many cafes and takeaways are nearby.

Amazing Value with a Great Location!

private bathroom free streaming services keypad system free drinks
The room was neat with a private bathroom. I found the smart TV with free streaming services like Netflix fantastic. It was convenient with self-check-in, so I could come and go as I pleased. The keypad system on the front door and room door was very straightforward. A coffee room offered free drinks between 7am and 10pm!
There was no place to leave my bag, it was just put into a cupboard where anyone could have taken it!
Service

Even though the staff were not on site, they were really helpful. I appreciated the convenience and simplicity of the self-check-in system! Guests can easily enter codes and settle in quickly.

There is a hot water machine downstairs which is a great addition. The tea tray in the room was handy! But I bought extra supplies from a local Morrisons. Plenty of cafes and takeaways were nearby
Location

The location was amazing and so close to the Tower! It only took about five minutes to walk there and to the beach, situated behind the Tower. A small Morrisons is located on Coronation Street with very nice staff.
