It was really modern and clean inside; shared kitchen area with fridge, freezer, microwave, and free tea and coffee, which was great. Our room was quite hot as it was on the top floor, but when we asked, they brought up a fan, which was great and solved the problem. Friendly and helpful staff. Great location for the beach with bar and restaurants very close by.

Receptionist area is not manned on a regular or scheduled basis.Although I think receptionist should be there from check in at 2pm up till 11pm as was indicated by hotel,the area was either closed or no1 inside regularly during those hours and even check out hours at 11 am no one was there.I didnt like that at all.Cant be running a hotel and someone isnt around to be called upon.

We stayed in the Deluxe Room with ensuite bathroom. The room was a decent size and the bathroom was small but functional. Great shower/bath, very good water pressure and temperature. Cleanliness was good overall. Check in waa easy and we were able to leave our bags at reception after check-out time. Free tea, coffee, sugar and milk pods. There is a fridge you can store food plus a vending machine on site. The location is perfect, close to shops, bus stop, restaurants and the Southsea Pier. Downsides: bed was squeaky, curtains were super thin. The room was incredibly bright early morning, therefore bring a sleeping mask with you. We could hear a everything going on around the room and it was difficult to sleep in the morning. Bring some earplugs with you for a quiet sleep.

This should not be classed as a hotel it was more like a hostel, the rooms had bunkbeds, the shower didn't work properly and the water pressure in the sink was non existent.

I booked the double en-suite room at this hotel/hostel and I was amazed by it. Great sized room, clean, comfy bed, everything worked and the en-suite even had a bath in it. For the price I paid, I couldn’t complain at all. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The only small issue I had was when I arrived to check in - the main door to the hotel was locked and there was no one in the reception to notice I was standing outside. However upon calling the hotel to explain, I was quickly greeted and welcomed in and it was explained that the reception isn’t manned all the time but there is always someone available on-site and can be contacted by phone. I had a great nights sleep as the hotel was very quiet, no doors slamming or loud parties. It was amazing and the hotel has a small number of car parking spaces which is great as the on street parking is time limited or permit holders only Monday to Saturday. I would stay there again

Budget accommodation better suited for short stays

You need to be a heavy sleeper as the walls are thin. Bathroom, although shared, was clean. Staff were helpful and I was glad that parking was available. Kitchen facilities were basic so come prepared with your dishes, although a fridge is provided. The area itself doesn't offer much for the tourist but there is an award-winning beach nearby where the water quality means that it's not recommended for swimming at.
