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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 #### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ivor James 8 Aug 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities If it was not for the nice host, most would of been terrible ratings. Our room was in poor condition, not as per advertised. Toilets were very small and I mean small. In fairness another room was offered, but facilities are poor. On the top floor, we had concerns about fire escape safety also. Noise reduction between walls is also limited. ##### Ivor James Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Kirsty 22 Aug 2024 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Do not believe the pictures. This used to be an amazing b&b but it's now just run down, damp rooms. Staff do not work on site, as they're at a different property down the road. The windows don't close, the heating doesn't work. The bedding isn't fit for a hotel. I’m sure the owners once had good intentions, but owning more than one property and the pandemic has made this place basically a hostel. They need a word with The Hotel Inspector! ##### Kirsty Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Paskins Townhouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Paskins-Townhouse.h2632067.Hotel-Information) > > [The White House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-White-House.h33525949.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) > > [New Madeira](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-New-Madeira-Hotel.h803237.Hotel-Information) > > [Strawberry Fields](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Strawberry-Fields.h8171777.Hotel-Information) > > [Amherst Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Amherst-Brighton.h33674439.Hotel-Information) > > [INNit Vibes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-INNit-Rooms-Upper-Rock.h48612059.Hotel-Information) > > [Brighton Surf Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Brighton-Surf-Guest-House.h8343258.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Princes Marine Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hove-Hotels-Best-Western-Princes-Marine-Hotel.h8199887.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Malmaison-Brighton.h1675498.Hotel-Information) > > [Amsterdam Hotel and A Bar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Amsterdam-Hotel-And-A-Bar.h8167798.Hotel-Information) > > [Blanch House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Blanch-House.h1183095.Hotel-Information) > > [Square Townhouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-Square-Hotel.h1650663.Hotel-Information) > > [Horizon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Horizon.h5365697.Hotel-Information) > > [Legends Hotel Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Legends-Hotel-Brighton.h10413174.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine View](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Marine-View.h2302158.Hotel-Information) > > [INNit Bliss](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Westbourne-Hotel-And-Spa.h901052.Hotel-Information) > > [New Steine](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-New-Steine.h1152113.Hotel-Information) > > [Brighton Black Hotel & Hot Tubs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Brighton-Breeze-Hotel.h2281417.Hotel-Information) > > [Brighton Inn Boutique Guest Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Brighton-Inn-Boutique-Guest-Accommodation.h8808526.Hotel-Information) > > [The Willows](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-The-Willows.h83921011.Hotel-Information) > > [Brightonwave](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Brightonwave.h1334366.Hotel-Information) > > [Hamptons Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Hamptons-Brighton.h23064052.Hotel-Information) > > [A Room With A View](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-A-Room-With-A-View.h8511040.Hotel-Information) > > [One Broad Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-One-Broad-Street.h35005541.Hotel-Information) > > [Ambassador Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Ambassador-Hotel.h1088228.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Brighton Seafront Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Mercure-Brighton-Seafront-Hotel.h34314.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Spray](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Sea-Spray.h1381361.Hotel-Information) > > [Brighton Seafront Holiday Apartment, Penthouse with Private Sun Terrace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hove-Hotels-Brighton-Seafront-Holiday-Apartment.h33577606.Hotel-Information) > > [Drakes of Brighton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brighton-Hotels-Drakes-Of-Brighton.h1381349.Hotel-Information)
