Considering I paid £75 per night (inc breakfast), the room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good with a wide selection of the usual traditional 'Full English' as well as fresh fruit etc. Staff are friendly and helpful. The negatives are that the building and decor is dated and in desperate need of a re-furb.

A shabby looking place in financial difficulties (according to the local paper when I was there, now being propped up by the local govt) but honest, clean and does what it say on the tin.

Have stayed here a few times and although its pretty basic it is a great location for Douglas. The buffet breakfast is great and the food portions are massive which is good.

I spent 2 nights here over the bank holiday weekend founding the staff very helpful and the location spot on. The twin room was rather small, but everything was spotless and in good working order, with a lovely view of the back car park!

I don't know how anyone could call this hotel flawless. I stayed there for four days this week on business and was decidedly underwhelmed. The best and fairest way to describe it is very tired, shabby and in desperate need of a face lift.
