Night entertainment  - good. Kettles didn't work. Our friend had to ask for a change immediately and ours on the second day. Quite large but plain and like an old ship room

Myself and 3 friends have just had a weekend at the hotel, the decor was very 70's, the bedroom was ok but the bathroom smelt damp and there was no extractor. The bedrooms were extremely hot and there was no air con anywhere. Food was ok. Would not recommend it to anyone.

Stayed at this hotel for two nights, in april 2011. This was the worst place we have frequented in our lives PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS. The room we stayed in was dirty and the bathroom was absolutly filthy, i had to clean this before it was used. Did we eat any food at the hotel? NO.

It is obvious that this hotel would not be in business without the coach parties. There is a policy of discrimation in force at the bar. If you have decided to pay for your drinks in advance in an all inclusive package you are relegated to one end of the bar for... more

We went for Christmas 23/12/2010---27/12/2010. On the night of the 24th the hot water system started making a loud noise at various intervals during the night resulting in very little sleep it sounded like a road drill. On complaining at the reception desk to Christine... more

My room didn't appear to have been cleaned before I checked in. The the tea and coffee facilities had clearley been used - most of the supplies were gone and the cups were dirty. This led me to doubt whether the room had been cleaned at all. The food was nearly all gone... more

This hotel is dirty, the lifts broke, the staff are rude. The canteen, or read "Harbour Restaurant" is far worse than any school. Even if you book a Premier room as we did, it is dirty, stained, the bed is lumpy and you can hardly see the seaview through all the bird... more

Whilst my stay was relatively okay (if a bit noisy) one of the hotels dated throwbacks lead to me being robbed. Whilst at breakfast my room key was stolen, the culprit went up to my room and stole my purse! Had the hotel been issuing card swipe keys for rooms this theft... more
