weak pressure street noise
The room felt smaller than advertised, a bit of a squeeze with my luggage. i noticed that the shower pressure was rather weak. also, the noise from the nearby street at night made it hard to fall asleep. Earplugs might be a good idea for light sleepers. the breakfast service ended quite early, so i missed it one morning, a bummer. the lack of elevator made navigating with heavy bags a challenge, especially to the upper floors.

adequate stay
friendly staff many things junior suite poor cleanliness sewage smell broken shower
The Junior Suite fit my family of five perfectly. There were many things to do nearby so we could always keep busy. The staff were friendly and nothing was TOO much trouble.
The cleanliness WAS not good. I arrived late and went straight to sleep so I didn't notice it too much in the night! When we woke I realized how poor it was. The shower also didn't work and the toilet smelled of sewage

Comfortable Family Stay
friendly staff positive experience
We liked the family room, it accommodated all five of us perfectly. The staff member was cute and friendly. The staff were also willing to help. This is our second time staying here after a gap, we still had the same positive experience.
The parking is not great. The pub car park only houses 3 cars. The car park behind Tesco is also used by local residents, so is not always suitable.
Rooms

The junior suite accommodated our family well. The room was clean and tidy on arrival. There was a hair dryer, an iron, an ironing board, a mini fridge and a TV, this added convenience.
Dining

The pub itself was nice. Next door has a Tesco Express, a bakery, and a fish and chip shop. Guests can enjoy chips from next door inside the pub, I thought this was great.
Location

Lots of things are close by. The hotel is next to a chip shop and Tesco Express. I thought it was easy to walk to the seafront. It takes around 15 minutes.
