Very poor management at this hotel. Would NOT stay here again. Had to cancel a booking that's 3 months away. Despite promises of a refund, no refund has been received. Phone calls to the hotel just result in being palmed off and given "the managers" mobile number which is never answered. Shame on Dheeraj and Piyush Joshi. They've ruined what was once a great hotel. Currently in talks with Trading Standards with them.

We stayed two nights in a seaview room. The bad.. Free parking & Free breakfast? Not at this place...? Parking is on a first come first served basis, with about 10 spaces that cost £10. Had we known, due to the missus being disabled, we'd have not booked here. You can park on the road for a quid an hour until 2200, when it is then free until 1000. So you will have to find somewhere to park. First impression as you arrive is a run down motel, that could do with a lick of paint all over & some repair work done to the frontage. Breakfast (we didn't partake) but it isn't free as advertised. Heating would have been nice. The TRV was removed so for the 2 nights, we had no heating other then the convector heater which we were lent. The shower head fell off the holder while in use, so it either pointed over the shower door, or you had to hold it. The shower cubicle was wee. Just enough room for a slim person to be able to lather your legs, if you weren't holding the shower head ha! The flat screen TV was the size of a small laptop screen with a remote that didn't work. So for the few times we wanted to just sit on the bed (no chairs) & relax, we watched whatever was on Channel 4 😂. The door handle (or rather the nub) was loose. So we had difficulty locking & opening the door to our room . As well as closing the door using the loose nub due to lack of grip on my fingers. The bed, oh my lord, so uncomfortable. After night one, I debated going back to the car, or sleeping on the floor with the duvet & pillows piled under me. It was somewhat rock solid with a few lumps in it. By night two, I couldn't carry my bag without groaning. The hallways could do with air fresheners. I know you can't chose the guests, but there was a constant smell of ****. The building is clearly none smoking, there are signs everywhere. So it is the smell of those who do partake, & walk the smell back in. The seaview room we booked did Not match the photo, which showed a bay window (nope), a couple of comfy chairs (no chairs at all). The Good... Smashing view of the beach! The staff were very friendly. The location.
