I wouldn’t normally put the words hole and sh1t in the same sentence for a review but nearly two hundred quid for two nights for a room that you couldn’t have a cat swinging contest in, the shower, was broken, the room itself appeared tacky. One saving grace was clean ( I think) bed linin. I think if you’d have come across to these shores in a dinghy, and the authorities put you up in here, which is what I think it’s used for, you would ask for a move. Nice man on reception though.

Disgraceful dive

The room seemed to be recently painted, but they did nothing to clean it up. There was plaster all over the floor and paint marks in the bathroom. The plasterers had clearly used the shower to clean their equipment as and the bathroom had not been Cleaned.The heating didn't work neither did the electric heater. There was a stain underneath the bed sheet that they didn't bother to clean. The shower head also wasn't compatible with the holder. Noise all night from some sort of plumbing kept us awake.On top of all that, there were no signs of anyone working there throughout our stay.

Avoid

Room was freezing. No heating from radiator, small plug in electric heater provides but not PAT tested. Pillows about an inch thick, thin summer weight duvet on beds. Bathroom filthy, thick grime around the skirting, shower grim, didn't use as felt I needed flip flops. Shelf in bathroom with toiletries had black dirt covering it. 3 cups with bugs in and no teaspoons

Disappointed guest

All in all not a great stay, Had to ring for self check in codes etc whilst on way to property, nothing sent 24 hours in advance as it was supposed to be even having filled in the pre check in form. Couple of stains on mattress cover, mattress not very comfortable, something leaking in bathroom, leaving small puddle on bathroom floor no one to report it to, toilet roll holder missing, heater provided in room, I assume because the radiator did not work, heater left leaning against the wall. The room was described as A SUPERIOR DOUBLE with balcony and a sea view not sure that is an accurate description, the room was far from superior, the door out to the balcony was locked, so could not be accessed, I’m assuming it was because it was unsafe, it certainly looked that way looking at it, but yes it did have a sea view, the room was very dated and in need of some repairs and redecorating.
