Hotel closed and boarded up
When we arrived to check in we found the hotel closed and a brick through the window. We were left having to book a second hotel at our expense. Still looking to receive a refund for our booking.
Hotel is closed but still taking bookings & money.
Arrived at the hotel to find the reception in darkness & unmanned. I came back 2 hrs later & still no receptionist however a workman appeared & told me that the hotel was closed. I asked for the manager & when he arrived I explained that I had 2 nights booked & paid for, he just told me to contact Hotels .Com for a refund.
Thanks for ruining my easter weekend.
It was too much cold in the room, heating was off. Water was dripping from the ceiling and windows. There were hair found in the duvet and tool. Wifi wasn't working. It was absolutely terrible, not recommended.

The staff were friendly but unfortunately this former old hotel as had its days.
Awful property, somebody had been in and used the toilet while me and my partner were out and just not even flushed it, one of her items of clothing have gone missing from out of the room also, in a close area to the beach but on the whole the place needs closing down.
Did not even sleep here at the end. Wood is rotten through l, window laches fell off. Lock on the door fell off room was unsure. Smell of mold.

Tried in vain to contact hotel to advise late arrival ignored emails when we did eventually get through on phone apparently no English was understood which seemed pointless so we missed booking in also when we went for 2nd day of stay we were told our room had been re sold and they had no room for us. Still they did not respond to the numerous emails sent the day before
