"Clean room/breakfast good"

"This hotel was excellent — great service, comfortable stay. I’d definitely recommend it, and it delivers exactly what you expect."

"Plenty of parking"

"Second stay at the Golden Fleece. Ideal location with free/ secure parking. Staff are friendly. Only criticism is that the rooms are starting to get a little tired."

"Lovely hotel with great views. The suite was extra comfortable and the roll top bath overlying the sea views really lovely. Breakfast was good. Room very clean. Staff all lovely. The upstairs dining room a little cramped with multiple people - this is personal preference though as I am sure others would like this."

"Great place to stay. Will definitely be back."

"The nightly rate is reasonable but as they say you get what you pay for. The hotel in areas looks very tired. We had French windows but these were fastened shut- I guess because the little wood balcony wasn’t safe. The water was scalding hot. Some of the light bulbs were out. It was clean though. The spa is a good addition with its lovely Victorian tiles. The breakfast is comprehensive- cooked, continental but a bit bland. This was our third time at the Crown Spa and each time our room seems progressively worse/ tired in appearance. The location is great for getting to the beach and a short walk to the centre. It is obviously popular- especially with pensioners and coach trips. If you know you are not getting ‘luxury’ and want to use the spa facilities The Crown Spa is decent value. "

"On arrival the staff were very helpful however when after being given our room we were appalled at the condition, especially the bathroom. The furniture was old and dated, the mattress and pillows hard, but it was the bathroom that dismayed us the most. There was black mold on the ceiling and extractor fan, the floor was uneven due to the lino was separating from the wooden floor. The taps on the sink needed replacing and the shower controls didn't work. To sum up the bathroom wanted gutting. After complaining and requesting another room we were told the hotel was fully booked but would be moved in the morning. The duty manager was very apologetic and we were offered a complimentary evening meal and drinks which didn't really compensate for the situation. The next morning we were moved to another room, a little better but not great. Wouldn't stay again or recommend."

"This hotel was the worst one I have ever stayed in, I expect that it's an Old building, but the overall state of repair is shocking, when you exit the elevator to any floor you see white flakes of paint and wood at every opening, this I deduced was the wood work of the doorway, which was being battered by the wheeled baskets ,that is used for transporting the bed clothes and other parafenalia to and from the rooms, the windows were ill fitting and drafty the door was as if the norm was to prise it open with a screwdriver. The management should prioritise inspecting the place and ensuring that Old doesn't have to mean TATTY."
