Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
My room was at the front of the hotel with an amazing view of the sea front from 3 huge windows. A classic old English seaside hotel with a lot of character, seems to be slowly and unobtrusively getting some updates - think my room has been recently refreshed and another nearby was being decorated, but it wasn't at all disruptive or very noticeable as it went on. Had everything you need and seconds away from the sea front.

Staff were great. Only thing we thought it really need to be improved is breakfast. Even a few more items like cheese or salamis and maybe a few patries. Just a few extra items.
