8/10 Good
"Unfortunately it was a very hot time when we visited which meant the rooms were extremely hot - even with the fan provided. I appreciate that the hotel could not do much else to change this, apart from a large scale air con installation which would be a large undertaking. Breakfast was a little lacking in quality - although the options were suitable it was a little tired when selecting food items - both mornings we were down between 8-8.30 and the hot buffet looked like it had been out some time and the quality of the product was therefore disappointing. The staff were pleasant and helpful. There has clearly been improvements made to freshen the hotel up and it felt clean and bright despite it being an older building. We did not use any of the other hotel facilities to be able to comment. Parking was not really viable at the hotel however we found the car park multi storey at the back and towards the seafront - operated by gunwharf very good and reasonably priced. I would return - just hope the bfast would be ok!"
