Positives First - Location good for walking to centre of town and the hotel has off street parking, friendly staff, free wifi Negatives - One of the worst hotels I have stayed in for a while - needs drastic refurbishment - yes maybe it’s at the cheaper end of the pricing scale but no excuse for stained carpets, curtains linen...

I stayed here as part of a group of walkers and having read some of the comments was rather apprehensive - especially as the hotel's own website doesn't do it justice, either! Bearing in mind that this a 2 star hotel, I found my room to be good size, warm and clean with a lovely view over the marina and... More

I guess if you are an obese person the showers would be cramped. If you spend your time in five star very expensive hotels I suppose you would think this hotel not up to your usual standard. Maybe some people just like to find fault! Get real this is a budget hotel not The Ritz. My room was warm and... More

I stayed here on a frequent basis from November 2009 to March 2010 as it was my employers prefered hotel. It is convenient for the town and the staff are fairly friendly. The rooms however are small and very tired. Some of the bathrooms are impossible to use - the shower cubicles are so small. The bathroom doors are plastic... More

On the afternoon of the 23/08/2011 we were in a car accident, on our way driving down to Paris. Our insurance company had booked us in here, as it was the only hotel available on such short notice. When we arrived at the hotel, we saw scafolding, and building supplies all over the floor of the reception. The receptionist on... More

We arrived early evening for a 4-day stay and were greeted by polite, friendly and helpful staff, who are this hotel's greatest asset. Our room was clean and pleasant, with a double and a single bed. Wardrobe space was more than adequate, and we were glad to see that the old-style plastic folding door to the bathroom had been replaced... More

We were given room 114 which was rather dingy, had a bed that sagged in the middle and a water leak in the bathroom, which had a wet floor. I reported the leak and we were offered another room – 115 – which was next door. Room 115 was much better than 114 with a better bed and no leak.... More
