The bathroom door could not be locked from inside. There is no ventilation in the toilet so after finishing the business, the bad smell could not escape apart from the main window of the room. The hot water in the sink was not working. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tanya, London 3 Sept 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities You get what you pay for. Staff is super nice and friendly. Room not so great. Very out dated. Bathroom extremely outdated. Tv never worked at all. Breakfast was ok. Nothing to write home about but can’t really complain either. Served its purpose. ##### Tanya Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Maxine 21 Aug 2020 Stay was ok only because it was close to the Beach. Room was very old fashioned so was the building the room smelt of toilet and bath room needed some TLC spiders in the bathroom and room. Bed very uncomfortable with two single ones out together. Breakfast was nice but overall it needs a revamp needs seriously uodating. ##### Maxine Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Debbie, Wiltshire 21 Aug 2020 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Was probably very pleasant in the 1980's Everything very dated, in need of a complete face lift.

Unfortunately that is the only good things about this place. The hotel is very run down and in desperate need of a makeover. Our room was dirty, full of cobwebs, and there was a grubby carpet in the bathroom and a shower that barely worked. In the six nights we stayed we never had the bedding changed and no fresh towels. Fawlty Towers definitely springs to mind. I would not recommend staying here . ##### Diane Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 15 Aug 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Dehumanisation and total ripoff by altavia hotel To say these is an horrible place to stay is an understatement.To start the people here are horrible and looked down on all their guests like pest.The breakfast is horrible.the rooms are like staying i. A chicken shed as you can hear all your footsteps like you are falling through the floorings.the rooms are without bath soaps.The rooms are very dirty and filthy.The aeration is poor as the building is very old and not much work has being done to improve it.God help you if you ask the workers and especially the owner who sleeps with his workers for help as they are very proud and rude.Even though on several occasions we made it clear we have got little kids and a pregnant lady among us they still kept on making uncooked egg .very awkward toast,tiny milk,tea and coffee in a rusted pot.The kids developed stomach ache throughout our stay.Dont go to these hotel if you value life ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 13 Aug 2018 #### Ok but expected far nicer Communal lounge and dining area good, breakfast was fine. Confusion over payment of room and room moved twice from original booking. Bedroom felt far closer to a youth hostel than hotel but kind of had all you needed (except coffee as only tea available). Staff very friendly and helpful on the whole. Free parking and free wifi. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 5 Aug 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### not happy at all. The hotel is old, it smelt of damp. The bathroom was an after thought, so small that if you bent over the basement you pushed the door open allowing no privacy. The bedside lamp flashes and sparked an worked no more. The television only worked when it wanted to. We had our twin grandsons with us both of whom are autistic, so was not good for them. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1232-p77d7ebb0-98d7-11e8-b409-0242ac110007-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1278-pbb410030-98d7-11e8-96be-0242ac11000a-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s716-pa0a48fd0-98d7-11e8-94ca-0242ac11000e-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s845-p926b0d40-98d7-11e8-b409-0242ac110007-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Rashid marikar 4 Sept 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Uncomfortable We booked two rooms(£150), Its a very old type hotel, duvet cover and towels are dark colours(to hide the poor quality) and very poor conditions. Toilet was bad condition. Wifi is very weak signal. Breakfast was worth less than a pound per head Very cheap items. Customer service was horrible. Did not have high chair for baby.

Building is dated and is being gradually brought back up . John is a nice easy going host . I recommend staying here for a budget based stay , our room had a sea view , plenty of space , tv , bath/shower ensuite kettle ...quite comfortable . I wasn't happy that the hotel.com confirmed a price to me and I was given a higher bill , this I think is a little unfair and should be made clear to both parties to save any awkwardness , we paid what we were asked to pay by hotel owner but it was higher than we were told by hotel.com to pay by £27/ room ! I reiterate John is a nice fella and we didn't want to cause a problem as we would like to return again ! ##### Chris Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 17 Apr 2017 #### It is what it is The Hotel is large and close to the beach. The rooms are a good size although they are in need of modernizing. The owner is a very friendly and interesting person and he doesn't intrude. Breakfast is a very organized affair, and by ordering it in advance it's swiftly prepared with no fuss. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Flutur 26 Sept 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Was amazing thx ##### Flutur ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Crafted at Powdermills](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Battle-Hotels-Powdermills-Country-House-Hotel.h195688.Hotel-Information) > > [Chimney House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sandbach-Hotels-Chimney-House-Hotel.h527768.Hotel-Information) > > [Mermaid, Ipswich by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ipswich-Hotels-Mermaid.h31883430.Hotel-Information) > > [Lock Keeper, Worksop by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worksop-Hotels-Lock-Keeper.h27479298.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stables Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Stables-Whitby.h23322490.Hotel-Information) > > [Samsara Retreat and Yoga - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-Samsara-Retreat-And-Yoga.h41349775.Hotel-Information) > > [Cromer Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cromer-Hotels-Cromer-Country-Club.h1927781.Hotel-Information) > > [The Skipton Hotel - Formerly Hotel Rendezvous](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skipton-Hotels-Hotel-Rendezvous.h41466.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Lythe Hill Hotel & Spa by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Haslemere-Hotels-Voco-Lythe-Hill-Hotel-Spa.h517258.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Canterbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canterbury-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Canterbury.h66541221.Hotel-Information) > > [Wild Rose Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Appleby-In-Westmorland-Hotels-Wild-Rose-Caravan-Park.h24459296.Hotel-Information) > > [Skegness The Royal Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skegness-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel-Skegness.h23931999.Hotel-Information) > > [Soar Mill Cove Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Soar-Mill-Cove-Hotel.h2042032.Hotel-Information) > > [Seven Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Southend-On-Sea-Hotels-Seven-Hotel.h19282555.Hotel-Information) > > [Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa - an Iconic Luxury Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-Milton-Hotels-Chewton-Glen-Hotel-Spa.h528432.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO Shanklin Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shanklin-Hotels-OYO-Shanklin-Beach-Hotel.h7539838.Hotel-Information) > > [Bear Lodge - At Port Lympne Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Bear-Lodge-Aspinall-Foundation.h40101484.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Camping Pods - At Port Lympne Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Pinewood-Apinall-Foundation.h40101599.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Signature Sheffield Quays Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sheffield-Hotels-The-Quays-Hotel-Sheffield.h46197620.Hotel-Information) > > [The Swan Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wells-Hotels-The-Swan-Hotel.h26791.Hotel-Information) > > [The Aviator, formerly Smugglers Cove, Clacton On Sea by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clacton-On-Sea-Hotels-Smugglers-Cove-By-Marstons-Inns.h35853904.Hotel-Information) > > [Yeoldon House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bideford-Hotels-Yeoldon-House.h2764122.Hotel-Information) > > [Brock Cottage private Hot Tub DOG/Cat FRIENDLY\* with on site fishing](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pickering-Hotels-Spacious-Stone-Cottage-DOG-FRIENDLY.h36805890.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London Elstree](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Borehamwood-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Elstree.h18549.Hotel-Information) > > [Exeter Rougemont hotel by Sunday](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exeter-Hotels-Exeter-Rougemont-Hotel-By-Sunday.h7784.Hotel-Information) > > [Crow Wood Hotel & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burnley-Hotels-Crowwood-Hotel-Spa-Resort.h38222710.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Leicester by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leicester-Hotels-Voco-Leicester.h76596043.Hotel-Information) > > [Canterbury Bell, Margate by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Broadstairs-Hotels-Canterbury-Bell.h33103125.Hotel-Information) > > [Wild Thyme & Honey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-Wild-Thyme-Honey.h9241983.Hotel-Information) ---
