8/10 Good
"The Hotel is a Grade 2 listed building right on the seafront close the bus and train station, which goes back to the 1860's i think it has 70 rooms and I stayed in a twin room it was clean spacious some where to hang your clothes a toilet and shower and tea and coffee making facilitie The inly reason for the 4 stars is because the AC was lacking there was small fan which was ok but, had that of been a few weeks ago when it was really hot the room would have been a hot box, the breakfast consisted of cereals fresh fruit and you could order an English breakfast, there was toast jams and marmalade juices etc which was nice. The lady, Carla on the front desk that checked us in was very nice."
