Bathroom was hidden in what looked like a closet. Better rate the longer you stay. ##### Kevin Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ian 8 Jan 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property is close to town which is great and the staff responded quickly to any questions or needs. However, the place wasn’t properly cleaned and I have several bite marks around my body from bed bugs for this reason I wouldn’t recommend this place ##### Ian Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sergey 11 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Picture look better than reality. Rooms are small, mattresses and pillows aren't great, bathrooms are tiny. Good price though and good location. ##### Sergey Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ellie 17 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Basic but great overall! I recommend. My room at Motel Schmotel was great. The room was small and basic but had all amenities I needed. My lamp stopped working but I’m sure if I had reported it, it would’ve been replaced. Qi An was a lovely host and carried my bag up to the fourth floor for me. Good price and close to the city centre - great for solo travellers and business trips like mine. ##### Ellie Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### GREGORY 21 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service More shabby than chic, I nevertheless soon became quite enamoured of my humble little room on the first floor. These prices were often a third of the travelodge. Is Schmotel three times worse than travelodge? No it’s a different thing. I was therefore pleased that there were no ghosts or Frankensteins and no poo on the wall or ceiling, and nobody with loud and evil intent anywhere in the seven blessed rooms. ##### GREGORY Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 21 Sept 2023 #### Older dated room Hotel is basic. No reception or so. Basic cleaning on the day. Room was old and a bit dated. However, clean. Toilet didn't flush properly. It did the job to sleep there, but, not more than that. so, if you are okay with a very basic, dated but clean room, it will do. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 27 May 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay for location Arrived on time but nowhere to get in, no reception, waited 10mins then asked housekeeper who went out but she’s didn’t speak a word in English. After 5mins asked her again mimicking what I want so she gave me number to call. A person came. Everything in house extremely old and worn out and half-broken; toilet never fully flushes, mini fridge makes noise so need to unplug for a night, floors extremely squeaky with every move, you can hear all neighbours (even next door) their every step. Floors also not straight at all. Shower not scrubbed, rusty. The only good thing was the bed - very comfy. If I ever had to stay again it would be due to location which was perfect. 3mins walk to beach, 2mins to high street, 10mins to Royal Pavilion, 15mins to Pier. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E8B5BB2EAADE3A308DE1A602C0732EC0A68745A41716819169710.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E929D9A6AC63A8ED859361B19B84A0FF6F7457851716819168584.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FAB5D10304E9D53D239DBB3FC2E197794F51EDA31716819168832.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/00DD7E8571296B25E640C439348CEC2F80805F4E1716819168652.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Toby 11 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Convenient location, nice staff/hotel manager. ##### Toby Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Nur Arif 24 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities strategic location and nice staff ##### Nur Arif ### 4/10 Poor #### Menon 1 Sept 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Too small ##### Menon Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 5 Feb 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely place Lovely welcoming hosts, clean, lovely size room and bathroom. Love it here we always stay when visiting Torquay. Breakfast is lovely and cooked fresh and a goid variety.we love the location as we walk through the Abbey and a variety of bars restaurants on the way into Torquay. ##### Paul Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Gunnar Thor 24 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Old but cozy well placed A step back in time, but cozy enough and really well placed in Brighton. ##### Gunnar Thor Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Bethanie 23 Jun 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Quite a busy loud location. Ground floor room you hear everyone; outside, inside, everyone. Cracked toilet seat but otherwise room was doable but the disturbance was really bad. Outdated and could do with a makeover and new lights etc. ##### Bethanie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Robert 25 Feb 2025 The convenience and the price. The property was a little shabby, and the en suite was very small. The bed not very comfortable. ##### Robert Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sasha 31 May 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities There was no food or dinner we had to buy our own food to have ![Cranks on the door ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c3a2fbe2-e351-472c-bfbb-bf82c5971857-1748656602624.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Dirt on the bed cover ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a49f8afd-d64f-4c6b-ba58-cfc8e7e0e1b3-1748656623687.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sasha Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Tim 26 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Room is small not even a table can’t even move it the shower never mind using the toilet plus u can hear next people wall not insulated ##### Tim Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Toby 20 Jul 2023 Liked: Room comfort #### Could be better, could be worse It's quiet, but you're prone to end up with a room full of flies if you leave the window open too long. Nice location, though. ##### Toby Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Glen 15 Sept 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property was dirty it looked nothing like the photos, my wife could have cried when we walked in we upgraded to another room that was just as bad. Completely spoiled how much needed hoilday..disgusting place ##### Glen Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Deborah 25 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was very pleasant. Clean, tidy and quite spacious. There was a squeaky door downstairs, which someone kept opening and shutting throughout the night making it quite impossible to sleep. There did seem to be a lot of noisy activity in the hotel? I would go back though. ##### Deborah Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### TRACY 4 Feb 2024 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Staff & service The property was fine apart from a drunk in the room next door shouting and smashing things , was very un nerving , and no visible staff to complain too . ##### TRACY Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Daniel 22 Apr 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Heating was maxed out making the room stuffy, shower was too small to use comfortably ##### Daniel Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Lisa 15 Jul 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property was nothing at all like advertised. It was dirty, tiny and stank of smoke. There was no breakfast option, my room was tiny with very poor and outdated facilities. I would not stay here again, despite the low price and convenient location. ##### Lisa Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Charles 31 Dec 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities If you’re a smoker then perhaps this would be ok for you. It smelt so strongly of smoke that I didn’t want to be there at all. Mould in the bathroom too. Sheets were clean, toilet and shower were also clean, but the mould made me just want to get out of there. Booked two nights, only stayed for one. ##### Charles ### 4/10 Poor #### John 8 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Only if you're desperate Very, very small room described as a standard, en suite room. I'm average height at best and struggled to even use the toilet. Room was covered in cobwebs, curtains only just attached to their rail, window itself cracked and just repaired with sellotape, floor looked like it had never seen a mop or Hoover. As the title says if it's your last resort then book it, if you're coming to Brighton to just get absolutely blind drunk then you might just manage but anyone else I'd say just spend just a little more and get somewhere decent. I visit relatives in Brighton and believe me there are many hotels, reasonably priced around so avoid this Hotel if you can. ##### John Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [New Steine](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-New-Steine.h1152113.Hotel-Information) > > [Ambassador Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Ambassador-Hotel.h1088228.Hotel-Information) > > [The Twenty One B&B](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-Twenty-One.h24425958.Hotel-Information) > > [The Willows](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-Willows.h83921011.Hotel-Information) > > [INNit Vibes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-INNit-Rooms-Upper-Rock.h48612059.Hotel-Information) > > [Legends Hotel Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Legends-Hotel-Brighton.h10413174.Hotel-Information) > > [Upper Rock Brighton Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Upper-Rock-Brighton.h102561365.Hotel-Information) > > [Corinthia London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Corinthia-London.h3849185.Hotel-Information) > > [Upper Rock Brighton Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Upper-Rock-Gardens-Guest-House.h106940721.Hotel-Information) > > [Marina Apartment Parking by Brighton Holiday Lets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Marina-Apartment.h31156011.Hotel-Information) > > [Brighton Inn Boutique Guest Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Brighton-Inn-Boutique-Guest-Accommodation.h8808526.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La The Shard, London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Shangri-La-The-Shard.h8035714.Hotel-Information) > > [Fab Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-OYO-Fab-Guest-House.h8239792.Hotel-Information) > > [Hamptons Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Hamptons-Brighton.h23064052.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal London Tower Bridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-London-Tower-Bridge.h4190769.Hotel-Information) > > [Kempfield House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Kempfield-House-Hotel.h2632411.Hotel-Information) > > [The Charm Brighton Boutique Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-Charm-Brighton-Boutique-Hotel-And-Spa.h2290699.Hotel-Information) > > [The Dilly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Dilly.h21538.Hotel-Information) > > [INNit Hotel - Marina House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-INNit-Hotel-Marina-House.h92169681.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cumberland, London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Cumberland.h21659.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Palace Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Old-Palace-Guest-House.h90961764.Hotel-Information) > > [Drakes of Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Drakes-Of-Brighton.h1381349.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Malmaison-Brighton.h1675498.Hotel-Information) > > [Brighton Black Hotel & Hot Tubs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Brighton-Breeze-Hotel.h2281417.Hotel-Information) > > [Zedwell Piccadilly Circus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Zedwell-Piccadilly-Trocadero.h42297074.Hotel-Information) > > [Strawberry Fields](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Strawberry-Fields.h8171777.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal Hotel London City - Tower of London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-London-City-Tower-Hill.h530052.Hotel-Information) > > [Beaches Brighton 1](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Beaches-Brighton-1.h31960962.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine View](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Marine-View.h2302158.Hotel-Information) ---
