Review Score:   6
Summary: Room was adequate, needs decorating, carpet badly stained, tv didn't show any live tv, weak signal. Shower had very weak flow, leaked everywhere, very thin walls, could hear people walking about, talking etc, room comes with mini fridge, breakfast basket, no cooked breakfast, mattress thin , pillows thin, car park ok, free, only enough space for around a dozen cars, so come early if you want to park, this hotel has 29 rooms. Bit of a trek from the centre of town, but from the front you can see brittania pier and joyland, around a ten minutes walk. Staff friendly, the whole hotel could do with a lick of paint, maintenance etc a little dated. But quiet location which is good. Would i stop here again? Possibly, But there are better hotels, that are closer, if some what slightly dearer, however these were mainly booked up on the dates we wanted, plus didnt have a car park or you had to pay to park. All in all a ok hotel.
