Yeah it’s not a hotel per se, no food and drink served. Enough for a few cups of tea in my room. Room 1 I was in. Shower fantastic, lovely - just like the welcome. All I needed for a nights stay.
Window looks like it could do with updating, bit rickety. More soundproofing, although I slept solidly until my alarm so can’t complain!

Area felt safe
This is a hostel not a hotel. Room looked like student accommodation. Walls and floors so thin could hear conversations. Shower was poor. Bedding had seen better days and needs replacing.

The cleanliness, the location, excellent customer services
The hotel was very clean and the location was perfect! Walking distance from the city centre and the beach! Thank you!

There is literally nothing nice about the hotel.
The tiny shower has black mould in every crevice.
The only window in the room, which you could hardly see through due to months of cleaning neglect had a torn curtain which meant that we were unable to close it for privacy.
The manager was very nonchalant and not concerned with our complaints.
We felt so uncomfortable that we left minutes after our arrival and booked in to a proper hotel.
LITERALLY EVERYTHING!
There was a musty smell in the room, when we had a look around we saw the black mould in the shower and the torn curtain on the only window.
Good thing the window was not cleaned as the dirt and grime served to give the room privacy.
We felt so discussed we left minutes after our arrival and booked in to a proper hotel- for the same price!
The manager was very nonchalant and was not bothered by our complaints.
Worst hotel I have ever been too!

Breakfast was not included. It was a nice little accommodation but not value for the amount paid.
The room should be for two max but we were four. Very squashed.

Basic room with television and polite receptionist.
Loud group screaming and shouting during the night and hanging outside the premises from 2am. No staff during the night. Way overpriced!

Coming home
Rooms tiny kettle didn't fit in sink had to be plugged in on the floor. Luminous fire sticker lit up the whole room all night as room was so small. No staff anywhere reception closed with bars across it, shower had parts missing, room noisy and sounded like old rattling pipes starting up various times during night... Definitely not a hotel worth the money I paid for 2 rooms. There is more however only so much I can say 🤦♀️

The room was clean and spacious and there was a fan to help keep cool
The room could have been cooler but it was so hot out I doubt it was the hotels fault

3.0
The host/manager was very friendly and helpful.
The room was very small for a double, it smelt of smoke even though there were no smoking signs every where. The bed sloped down hill and the bedding was quite old, awful pillows. The bathroom was dirty in the shower area and floor. The curtains had cigarette burns in them and you could hear everything from next door. I my opinion it was one larger room made into two. The price was £65, probably should have been half that price. Definitely wouldn't recommend or use again.
7.0
Budget, clean, en-suite but also kitchen facility. Everything required for a fuss free night or two. Pleasant environment.
Walls are a bit thin. No power point for the kettle, ended up on floor. Was kept company by largish insect which I eventually had to escort outside.
1.0
I didn't like anything. I paid for 2 nights for a double room and received a single room with a single bed. Shame on them.
I had a reservation for 2 people, 2 nights with a double room and a double bed. The room was incredibly small and you could feel yourself suffocating. The bed was torn to one side and you couldn't sleep in it, single bed not double. On the first day, at midnight, we packed our bags and left. It was impossible to sleep in that bed.I called the hotel the next day but they were totally disinterested. I complained to the booking so that I could get a refund back one day as they refuse to solve this problem.

For price the room was decent and front desk was very friendly, he let us check out late upgraded the Pom and held luggage for us which was much appreciated.
the room was not clean to standard bathroom smelt and suspicious bottles left in room,hairs in bed and all over bathroom, sugar packs thrown everywhere etc.Even at price,cleanliness especially in these times(covid times)is one of the main things I’d look for in a hotel,I was unable to sleep due to my ocd and the conditions.

Good location. Comfortable beds and very clean.
Small room just big enough for 3. Communal kitchen clean but very small. Our food that needed refrigerating got stolen. I think apart from the price the most disappointing thing was to find out the accommodation is shared between holidaymakers and emergency accommodation.

What breakfast???? Didn't get any breakfast.
We booked a double but were given a room with a double and 2 singles crammed in which meant there was no room. One of the single beds had something nasty up the side of it.The bathroom floor tiles moved when we walked on them and what carpet we could walk on didn't feel clean

No breakfast included but I knew that already
The room was very small even for a single; I would liken it to student accommodation. The towels were very old, worn and small.
The mattress on the bed needs urgent replacement.
The room was not sound proof, the owners baby cried until very late so I could not get to sleep.

room was decent staff were really great but it wasnt clean a great location though
the ledge on window sill was dirty from previous guests and there was an unfresh smell in the room
