Lovely little B&B close to the seafront. Stayed here during off season so they arranged to meet me at the B&B for check-in and the communication was excellent. Very friendly staff during check-in and out. Easily walkable to the town and train station

There was an awful smell throughout the hotel, like drains or a portaloo. The beds in our room (6) were terribly old and uncomfortable, every time you moved the children woke up as they were so squeaky, the mattresses were discolored and stained.
The bathroom was old and in great need of modernization, the shower didn't work, however the maintenance man sorted it out straight away. We were only provided with one towel each. Toiletries and chocolate was a nice touch. However we would not stay here again. Lovely view and position. Not quite sure why this hotel has 8/10 score. (this is why we booked it) Shame as it could be really nice with some updating and new beds.

Excellent service and very friendly hosts both on the phone and in person. Good sized room, but there were areas where it could have been a little cleaner in the bathroom and carpets.

We stayed here prior to Le shuttle, our room was recently decorated, clean and quiet and at a great price. The staff were helpful polite and cheerful.
We paid an addition £4 for the on-street parking after 8am.
We’d use Westward Ho again

Excellent Budget stopover. Clean, warm & good location for Eurotunnel. Reception member Jay checked us in (we called 20 mins prior to arrival as instructed) & gave us all the relevant info - very friendly & helpful. Dog friendly. We’ll be back 👍
6.0
Good location and size of room but in poor condition. The communal areas are poor too.
Staff was good but breakfast was more of something very basic and no cooked items.
Could have done the interior properly as they have few many properties and need looking after urgently.

Comfortable bed in small room with a great seaside view and a cold breakfast for a very decent price, comparatively. Downside was that the TV didn’t work, veggie options for breakfast were minimal and the building was a bit musty

This hotel is located in a beautiful old building on a quiet park-like boulevard that runs along the coast. nice view of the sea from the hotel room. hotel room is clean and spacious. The bed is a bit less comfortable. It is a basic hotel. Don't expect much luxury. Price/quality is very good.

Property was clean and room was comfortable.
Stairs were hard work and parking was limited.
We walked to the town centre , so that we didn't lose our space

Convenient B&B prior to channel crossing. The hosts were friendly and accommodating by allowing us checking in very late by midnight.

Great little b and b with very friendly hosts. This is not a five star hotel, but had loads of lovely touches like tea and coffee, water, chocolates etc. Comfy and very clean, and they allowed us to keep our (clean) bikes in the room for the right before our ferry the next day. Breakfast was lovely, and did exactly what it said on the tin. Quiet area, albeit on a slightly less salubrious end of town - but we walked to and from town with two young children along the sea front for dinner and had no issues at all. Highly recommended.
