Kenneth, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

I have to say that I was a bit dubious of my upcoming stay here after reading so many negative reviews. We really enjoyed our one night stay here. We were in such a huge room which felt so incredibly spacious. The staff were friendly and worked really hard to ensure that guests enjoyed their stay. Yes there could be some decor improvement as a little dated or worn but none of this really impacted our stay. The breakfast was nice and the staff were accommodating with any additional request.

Karen, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

I found the hotel good but agree with past reviews it does need money investing in it. Our room was massive with 4 poster bed and balcony. We ate in the restaurant and the fish and chips were top notch. But best of all was the service received from Jim the man who’s seems to run the hotel all on his own. He made us feel like we were staying in a 5 star hotel. We would definitely stay here again.
Tracy, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Staff was very nice. Room was okay, shower tiny and overall building in need of some TLC.
Trina, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

The room was spacious and comfortable but a bit outdated. The room had an enormous window and the blind, when pulled down was ill fitting so the light woke us up at 5am. The TV didn't work which was disappointing. The hotel was generally dusty and needed some TLC. However, dinner and breakfast was very good and the staff friendly. and helpful.

Christopher, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

An old building that has been neglected and needs big sums spending on it to bring it up to an acceptable standard. Wallpaper peeling from the walls in both the bedroom and bathroom. Just generally neglected. Breakfast was ok

A gem of an older hotel, and excellent staff.

Lovely hotel

Lovely hotel with great staff and food selection. A must if in the area
TheMagicTouch GB Ltd, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

WE were overcharged on bar drinks on the first evening. The issue we tried to resolve with the staff, but they refused to accept, paid a £7 refund which ultimately reduced the Bill from £85.00 down to £70. after discussions. The drinks we had however, base don the individual drinks price could not be added up to £70.00. Consequently we used an alternative outside bar for an evenings drink. Additionally, room 19 had no bathroom mirror. The only mirror was the other side of the room. The television in the room was not connected nor had a coaxial cable to connect it so it could not be used. It was also a small television and not the standard 32" TV one would expect. We will not use this hotel in future.
